It is no secret that I love the Eduard Bf-109E kits. Having built three of them in various forms has provided me with some insight on these little gems. One thing that would be nice is the ability to articulate the elevators, as is frequently seen on the real thing. I can never get this to look correct to my eye when I do the work.
Quickboost has the answer. Molded in a light olive drab resin, this set comes in four parts – two horizontal surfaces and two elevators that already have been modified with beveled surfaces that allow the modeler to articulate the control surfaces without issue. The detail on the parts is exactly as good as the kit parts.
If you do articulate the controls, don’t forget to offset the stick in the cockpit as well. Down elevators mean forward on stick. My next Eduard 109 will have this set installed.
Highly recommended
Thanks to Quickboost and IPMS/USA for the review copy.
