Product # 48044 for Eduard kit

Product Article by Steve Bamford on Aug 23 2011

 

This latest release from Scale Aircraft Conversions features a set of landing gear for the F6F Hellcat from Eduard.  The masters for the initial casting run of this set had the axles reversed. The set was corrected in late July 2009. If you purchased your set prior to August of 2009 you probably received a faulty set. If you have a question about the set you purchased, compare your set with this photo, which is correct. SAC apologizes for the inconvenience.

These landing gear are cast from metal and include the main gear legs.  The level of detail is exceptional and the casting quality is excellent.  

These landing gear will give you added strength as well as added detail. 

You can purchase this and other landing gear sets for a variety of aircraft and scales for many, many different models directly from Scale Aircraft Conversions.
