RESArm 1:72 Wheels for the Tu-16 (under load) is a resin (3D-printed) replacement set of landing gear wheels with flattened tires that faithfully imitate the way the rubber gives under the weight of the aircraft.
Responsibility details are not available.
This is a resin, precisely 3D-printed replacement for the landing gear wheels of the Soviet Tu-16 jet bomber in 1:72 scale. The wheels have the so-called under load effect - the lower part of the tire is flattened and slightly bulged, as though the whole weight of the machine standing on the ground were resting on it. The tread pattern and the wheel hub are worked out in detail as well.
It is not an aircraft model but an accessory with which you replace the plastic wheels from an ordinary kit. A flattened tire is one of the most conspicuous marks of a real aircraft on the apron, and plastic kits mostly fail to capture it. The result is a more convincing stance of the model on its gear.
First wash any mold release agent off the parts, cut them carefully from the casting blocks and bond them with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Wear respiratory protection while sanding. The tires come out well in a flat blackish gray with a fine dust pigment, and the rims in the matching landing gear color.
