About product

The rotor head of the Cobra with a deflector, the late form

This set in 1:32 scale replaces the main rotor of the Bell AH-1G attack helicopter and in the name it is described as the form with a dust and debris deflector, that is with so-called sand shields, in the late form. The manufacturer lists it alongside an early variant, so a builder can choose according to the particular machine he is building.

The Bell AH-1G HueyCobra

This type was the first production helicopter designed from the outset as an attack machine. It came about on the mechanics of the UH-1, but it received a very narrow fuselage, an arrangement with the gunner at the front and the pilot behind him, a two-blade rotor and a nose turret with weapons. Its deployment in Southeast Asia showed how quickly a rotor head suffers from dust and sand off unpaved strips, and that is where the shields the set is aimed at come from. For a modeler it is a detail by which a machine can be placed in time.

Fitting and painting the rotor

The rotor head is best finished away from the model and fitted only once the fuselage has been painted. The fine protrusions will take little force, so gluing with cyanoacrylate drop by drop suits. A metallic cast on the contact faces and light dust on the underside of the blades will add credibility to the whole. The blades are fitted last, so that they are not in the way during further work and do not break.

Who the accessory is for

  • Builders of the large Cobra in 1:32 scale
  • Anyone interested in the late form with shields at the rotor head
  • Modelers who replace a rotor with a more faithful casting
  • A display case model where the rotor head is clearly visible

FAQ

The two sets differ in the form of the shields at the rotor head. The manufacturer therefore lists them as two separate items, early and late.

The designation from the name for shields meant to limit the entry of dust and sand at the rotor head, thrown up while working from unpaved strips.

The rotor is fitted onto the shaft, but reckon on fine-tuning the seating face and removing the casting stubs.

The Cobra carried a two-blade main rotor. The exact number of parts in the package is not stated here, however.
