A resin wheel set for the Lockheed F-104 E / CF-104 Starfighter fighter in 1:72 scale. The set covers the F-104 E version and the Canadian CF-104. It is not an airplane kit but an accessory that replaces the plastic wheels of the kit with a more faithful casting. The maker is the Ukrainian company Reskit.
A resin wheel tends to be more accurate in shape than a plastic part: it holds its circular shape and has a sharp tire tread pattern and clean rendering of the rim and the hub. The tire is usually cast with slight flattening where it touches the ground, which imitates the load of a standing aircraft. Check the axle diameter and the mounting on your kit before you buy.
The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter is a supersonic interceptor with a characteristic thin wing; the CF-104 is the Canadian license-built version in the strike and reconnaissance role.
These are resin castings. Wash the mold release residue off the parts with soapy water, separate the wheels from the casting block with a fine saw and sand the flat spot smooth. They are glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue), as plastic cement does not hold on resin. Protect your airways while sanding.
The set is supplied as unpainted resin castings. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
