About product

Control surfaces for the TBF and TBM Avenger in 1:72 scale (CMK)

An accessory resin set of control surfaces for models of the Grumman Avenger torpedo bomber in 1:72 scale, intended for Hobby Boss kits. It is not an airplane model but a replacement for the surfaces that the kit carries molded in one piece with the wing and with the tail surfaces.

What the set solves

An injection-molded kit usually has the rudders and the flaps in the neutral position and molded in one piece with the wing or with the tail surfaces. The result then looks motionless. Separate surfaces let you deflect the rudder and the elevator, and the model gains the movement that a static display case lacks most. The deflections do have to match one another, though: a machine on the ground tends to have its surfaces hanging under their own weight, whereas a machine in a bank holds its deflection in line with the position of the stick.

Use

  • cut the casting blocks off with a saw or a blade and sand the pads flush
  • wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water, which gets rid of the mold release residue
  • glue with super glue, cement for plastic does not hold on resin
  • try the position of the deflection dry before you apply any glue
  • protect your airways when sanding, resin dust is not to be inhaled

The real subject

The Avenger was an American carrier-borne torpedo bomber and the heaviest machine that operated regularly from aircraft carriers during the Second World War. Grumman built it under the TBF designation, while under the TBM designation it was built by the automotive division that took over most of the production so that Grumman could concentrate on fighters. About ten thousand machines were built in all and they served in the Pacific and in the Atlantic.

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

FAQ

So that the rudder and the elevator can be deflected. A kit tends to have them molded in the neutral position, which makes the model look motionless; deflected surfaces give a scene movement and show that the machine is manned.

No. It is an accessory for building the Avenger in 1:72 scale. You build the airplane itself from the base kit the set is intended for.

A machine parked on the deck tends to have its surfaces hanging under their own weight, a machine in a turn holds its deflections in line. Choose one situation and keep to it across the whole model.

That is not stated here. The scope of the package is stated on the box; the set relates to the control surfaces of the model in 1:72 scale.
