Product Description

This is an entirely new set that offers ease of assembly, more accurate, and stronger The set comprises 3 brass parts and 15 3D printed parts, some are options and there are two spares for tiny secure nuts for the tail wheel. The set allows the undercarriage struts to be added right near the end of the build, making painting easier. there are new internal wheel hubs with the fitting for the hydraulic line to be attached. there are options for the tail wheel, the long version or the shorted 'boot' covered version, just an extra that may help someone to build a slightly different version. One area that I think that there is possibly an error in the kit is that the tail wheel is too small. After research I believe the tyre should be a 350 x 135 as I have done, not the 290 x 110 as supplied, as can be seen it makes quite a difference.

As shown in the pictures all the parts are keyed for accurate alignment. Kit main wheels and outer hubs to be used.

ONE NOTE: To fit the tail wheel to the brass strut, please file a small amount off the axle area on the brass.

Note you will need to clean up some casting sprue gates from the parts and the odd small brass 'inclusions' that may appear through the casting process.
