About product

A-10 Thunderbolt II — wheel set — 1:48, made by Reskit

Replacement wheels for a model of the American A-10 Thunderbolt II ground-attack aircraft. This is a resin and 3D-printed set of replacement wheels for more experienced modelers that replaces the plastic kit wheels and brings a more faithful tread pattern and better defined hubs. It is not an airplane model but an aftermarket landing gear accessory.

The real subject

The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II, which earned the nickname Warthog, is an American twin-engine ground-attack aircraft built around the massive seven-barrel GAU-8 rotary cannon and a titanium armor bathtub around the pilot. It is made for close support of ground forces, low flying and operations from simple airfields, and its hefty landing gear matches that.

Usage tips

First wash the resin parts in warm soapy water to remove any mold release agent. Separate the wheels from the casting blocks with a sharp blade, level the cuts with sandpaper and bond them with super glue (cyanoacrylate) — cement for plastic will not hold on resin. The hub and the tire are easier to paint before final fitting; masking and a matte varnish will help.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want to take the landing gear detail beyond what the kit parts allow
  • Builders of the attack aircraft model who care about a faithful tread pattern and wheel hubs
  • More experienced modelers used to working with resin and super glue
  • Fans of American Cold War attack aircraft

The set is supplied unassembled and unpainted as a resin accessory. It is not an aircraft model; glue and paints are not included in the package. Protect your airways when sanding resin.
