About product

A propeller set for the Baltimore Mk.I to Mk.V in 1:48 scale (CMK)

An accessory propeller set for models of the twin-engine Martin Baltimore bomber in 1:48 scale, intended for Special Hobby kits. It is not an airplane model but a replacement for the propellers from the original kit. The parts are made by 3D printing, as stated on the box.

What the set solves

The propeller is the most visible part of an injection-molded model and at the same time the hardest to mold. The blade has to be thin, twisted along its length and free of a parting seam, and a mold manages that shape only with compromises. 3D printing makes such a shape in one piece, so the profile of the blade comes out finer and the edges sharper. On a twin-engine machine that shows twice over, because both propellers are up front on the model.

Use

  • cut the print supports off carefully, the blades are thin and stand little pressure
  • wash the part in lukewarm soapy water before painting and let it dry
  • glue with super glue, cement for plastic does not hold on resin
  • a primer coat is a must on resin, otherwise the top coat cracks
  • set both propellers to the same blade angle, a mismatch shows on the finished model

The real subject

The Martin Baltimore was a twin-engine light bomber built in the United States to a British order. The British and Allied air forces flew it in North Africa and in the Mediterranean, where it attacked ground targets and patrolled over the sea. The machine was powered by two radial engines, so the propellers are among its most prominent features.

This is an accessory for the build. The Special Hobby base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Because of the shape of the blade. An injection mold has to thicken the blade and leave a parting seam on it, whereas a printed part is in one piece and the profile can be finer. On the finished model the propeller is right up front.

No. It is an accessory that replaces the propellers in the base kit. You build the bomber itself from the kit the set is intended for.

When cutting the supports off, support the blade with your finger and guide the knife from the edge toward the center, not against the blade. Fit the finished propeller at the very end of the build so that it does not snap while you handle the model.

That is not stated here. The scope of the package is stated on the box; the set is built for the model in 1:48 scale.
