About product

3DF 1:72 external weights for the metal propeller of the Fw 190

A 3D printed detail set from 3DF for models of the Focke-Wulf Fw 190 in 1:72 scale. It is not a kit of the aircraft but a small accessory: the set adds the external weights on the blades of the metal propeller — small bodies attached at the root of the blades, just behind the spinner.

The metal propeller of the Fw 190 was produced in variants both with and without external weights. The weights were bolted to the root of the blade from the outside and look like a flat disc or a puck. That is exactly why they are so interesting for modelers: in a photograph of a particular machine they either are there or they are not, and their presence helps to identify the type of propeller used. On the model these are a couple of millimeter-sized details, but they change the character of the nose immediately — and in 1:72 injection-molded plastic can practically not reproduce them.

Use

  • Intended for detailing an Fw 190 model in 1:72 scale; the weights are glued to the propeller blades at their root.
  • Before building, check a photograph of the particular machine you are modeling — not every Fw 190 had a propeller with the weights.
  • Wash the parts in lukewarm water with detergent so that no print resin residue is left on the surface.
  • Cut the print supports off with a sharp scalpel; in this scale the parts are very small — work over a mat and with tweezers.
  • Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate), and once it has dried spray a primer and paint them together with the whole propeller.
  • Do the sanding wet and with respiratory protection.

Who it is for

For modelers who build the Fw 190 in 1:72 and want the propeller to match a particular photographed machine rather than a general idea of one. Given the size of the parts this is work for a more experienced hand — it is a typical detail for those who compare their model with a period photograph and do not want to give up even on small things.

A 3D printed detail set, not a model. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

They were weights attached to the root of the blades from the outside, connected with balancing the blade and with changing its angle. On a model they are mainly a characteristic visual detail of that propeller variant.

No. The metal propeller occurred in variants with and without them. Check a photograph of the particular machine you are building first.

Rather not. In 1:72 scale the parts are very small and call for tweezers, a sharp scalpel and super glue. We recommend at least basic experience with 3D printed accessories.
