Wheels for the MiG-15, 1:48 is a 3D-printed resin set of landing gear wheels for a MiG-15 fighter model in 1:48 scale, with weighted tires.
Responsibility details are not available.
This 3D-printed resin set replaces both the nose wheel and the main wheels of a MiG-15 model in 1:48 scale. The wheels are modeled with the flat spot that the weight of the aircraft presses into the tire, and the set also holds correctly shaped nose gear bay doors. It is not an aircraft model but a replacement part for one.
The MiG-15 is the first Soviet jet fighter that held its own against Western opponents, and it was built in enormous numbers, including licensed production in Czechoslovakia. The landing gear is simple, with a nose leg and two main legs, and it was built to operate from grass strips as well. On a parked machine the tires are visibly settled and leave a mark even in grass. This detail is exactly what decides whether a model looks like an aircraft on the ground.
Wash the 3D-printed parts in warm soapy water first, to get rid of any print resin residue. Cut the print supports off with a sharp blade or a fine saw as close to the part as you can and sand the marks away with respiratory protection. Resin does not bond with polystyrene cement, so use cyanoacrylate glue. Apply a thin coat of primer before painting, otherwise the paint will not hold well on the smooth print. Fit the wheels with the weighted deformation so that the flattened area of the tire sits on the base, otherwise the model will not stand naturally.
The set is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
