About product

Aires/Quickboost Engines - PBY-1/5 Catalina 1:72

These are resin castings: a detail accessory, not an aircraft model. The replacement engines take the place of the parts from a plastic kit and bring a more faithful rendering of the radial engines of the PBY-1/5 Catalina flying boat in 1:72 scale.

What the accessory is for

The cast engines serve as a replacement for the parts from a plastic kit. The fine details of the cylinders and the valve gear give a model a realistic look with no need for laborious additions. You will use the accessory when building a model of the PBY Catalina reconnaissance flying boat in the PBY-1 and PBY-5 versions in 1:72 scale.

Tips for working with resin

  • Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water to remove the mold release residue.
  • Cut the casting blocks off with a saw or a sharp knife, not by snapping them.
  • Glue them with super glue (cyanoacrylate).
  • Do the sanding and cutting with respiratory protection: do not breathe the dust in.

Who it is for

  • Advanced modelers focused on the detail of a powerplant.
  • Builders of PBY Catalina models in 1:72 scale.
  • Modelers used to working with resin and super glue.

The resin accessory is supplied unpainted. Do the sanding and cutting with respiratory protection. Keep out of the reach of children.
