1:48 Savoia-Marchetti SM.79 undercarriage is a photo-etched set from Eduard for detailing the landing gear of the Italian SM.79 bomber in 1:48 scale. It is not a model of the aircraft but an accessory for a kit.
Responsibility details are not available.
The set holds photo-etched parts aimed at the landing gear of the three-engine Savoia-Marchetti SM.79 bomber in 1:48 scale. It is not a kit of the aircraft but an accessory for a plastic kit of the same type and scale. Eduard lists it in its full photo-etched range, which is more extensive than the smaller Zoom sets.
The landing gear and the wheel wells are, on aircraft of this size, among the places where simplification shows most. The real struts, rods, covers and inner stiffeners have a small cross section that is hard to imitate by injection into plastic without thickening it. Photo-etched metal sheet makes it possible to render these parts in a matching thickness of material, so the landing gear comes across as slender and technically believable even close up.
Have a sharp scalpel, tweezers and a photo-etch bending tool ready. Small parts hold best on super glue applied in the smallest possible amount, ideally from the point of a needle. Make the bends in one pull; repeated bending breaks the material. It is sensible to finish the landing gear assembly only after the underside of the wing and the fuselage have been painted, so that the parts can be reached comfortably.
