1:72 SB2C Helldiver undercarriage covers

Quickboost SB2C Helldiver landing gear doors (1:72)

A resin detail set from Quickboost with landing gear doors for a model of the American Curtiss SB2C Helldiver carrier-based dive bomber in 1:72 scale. The thin castings have a faithful structure inside and out and are more delicate than the plastic parts of the kit. It is an accessory for a kit, not an airplane model in itself.

The real subject

The Curtiss SB2C Helldiver was an American carrier-based dive bomber of the Second World War period, flown above all in the Pacific. The main landing gear doors are clearly visible with the legs extended and a faithful rendering of them raises the realism of the model.

Building tips

Separate the thin parts carefully from the casting blocks, bond them with super glue and pick out the inner faces in a different color. Use respiratory protection when sanding.

Who the set is for

• Modelers who want delicate and faithful landing gear doors.
• Builders of carrier-based aircraft of the Second World War in 1:72 scale.
• Anyone who wants to raise the accuracy of the landing gear bays.

The kit itself and glue are not included in the package.
