This kit provides three resin exhaust stack units for the FW-190A-8 kit. These snap into place just like the ones provided in the kit, and the only difference is that the Brassin units are drilled out, appearing to be exhaust stacks rather than solid tubes. Highly recommended.
My thanks to Eduard for the review set.
This resin and PE set includes the major cockpit interior, side panels, rear cockpit deck, 2 forward instrument panel covers for mounting the gunsight, rear headrest, two piece instrument panels, and a control stick. The PE sheet provides painted instrument panels, seat belts, rudder pedals, and misc. parts. Clear film for the gunsight is also included. Instructions are complete and highly detailed, providing location and color information. This has more detail than the one provided in the kit, and makes a useful addition to this kit. Some trimming inside the fuselage is required, but this is clearly explained in the instructions. Recommended.
My thanks go to Eduard for the chance to review this wonderful set.
Scale Aircraft Conversions celebrated their Silver Anniversary last year, and now have over twenty-five years of supplying resin and white metal parts to model builders. This is the seventh landing gear set from SAC that I have reviewed, and once again, they have provided an excellent metal option for kit-supplied landing gear. This set is intended for the 1/48 scale Horton Ho 229 flying wing that was released by Zoukei-Mura last year (kit 3 of the 1/48 scale Super Wing Series). The purpose of this replacement set is to provide stronger landing gear that is adjustable if necessary to obtain proper angles. Even with no previous experience in using white metal parts, this set will provide an upgrade that most modelers will have no issue installing.
This resin and PE set provides the rear part of the radial engine, firewall, MG-131 machine guns, gun breech cover with detail inside and out, 2 ammunition containers, one engine mount, one engine mounting bracket, one cylindrical engine part of unknown function, and one PE sheet containing numerous detail parts for this unit. The instructions are very detailed and clear on how the whole thing is supposed to go together.
This set of one piece wheels replaces the more complicated 3 piece units provided in the kit. They are finely molded in resin, and can be easily trimmed off of the sprues. A mask set is also included, making it possible to mask either the tires or the hubs. Detailed instructions are also provided. Recommended.
My thanks to Eduard for the opportunity to review this set.
