About product

Wheels for the Mil Mi-6 Hook helicopter in 1:72 scale (Armory)

A resin set for replacing the landing gear wheels when building a model of the Mi-6 helicopter in 1:72 scale. It is not a model or a kit. On a heavy helicopter the landing gear carries a great weight, so the deformation of the tire is clearly visible on the real machine, and a casting with a compressed contact face gives the model the settled look that a perfectly round plastic wheel never has.

The real subject

The Mil Mi-6, NATO code name Hook, was a Soviet heavy transport helicopter introduced at the turn of the 1950s and 1960s, and in its day it was among the largest machines of its kind. Besides the main rotor it had auxiliary lifting surfaces on the fuselage, which unloaded the rotor in flight. It was used to carry cargo and equipment and served in both civilian and military operation.

Fitting and painting tips

The set is listed as universal, that is, related to the real subject rather than to one box, so always try the parts dry and adjust the diameter of the pin if necessary. Wash the castings free of mold release agent, cut off the casting blocks and level the faces. Turn the compressed part of the tire square to the ground. On large models it pays to weather the wheel lightly after painting with dust pigment from the lower part upward, because helicopters threw up dust over the whole height of the landing gear as they touched down.

Who the set is for

  • builders of Soviet helicopter subjects in 1:72 scale
  • modelers who want a faithful stance for the wheels of a heavy machine
  • users of kits with simplified landing gear
  • anyone after more accuracy without touching the fuselage

An accessory for building a model, not a finished or kit-form aircraft. Buy the paints, glue and the base model separately.

FAQ

No. It is a set of resin replacement wheels that you use during the build in place of the plastic parts. The model is not included in the package.

The set is shaped to the real subject, not to one particular kit. On older boxes it may be necessary to adjust the mounting.

The compressed face belongs at the bottom, square to the ground. Try the position dry on the built model and only then glue it.

A flat dark gray tire, the rim according to the particular machine, and a light dusting with a pale pigment from the bottom upward. Fix the effect with a matte varnish.
