Upgrade sets for 1:48 helicopter models are the quickest way to lift a quarter-scale build in one move: one box holds etched frets, masks and in some cases a pre-coloured instrument panel with harnesses for a specific kit. Coverage includes naval Sea Kings in several versions, the Mi-24, machines of the Black Hawk family and the small AH-6. The contents of each set are described in detail with the product.
One box means one evening of planning saved: the components are matched and never compete for the same spot on the model. A build from 1:48 helicopter kits equipped this way will hold up on a competition table. Metal without masks is in 1:48 helicopter photo-etch, and every variant is summarised in helicopter upgrade sets.
