About product

Tarhe landing gear for the in-flight position, 1:35

This landing gear set with wheels from the brand Reskit is intended for the large model of the CH-54A heavy crane helicopter. It captures the legs in the position they take in the air, with the shock struts fully extended and the tires not loaded by the weight of the machine. The manufacturer also makes a separate variant of the wheels compressed for a machine on the ground, so the builder can choose according to the scene he has in mind.

The flying crane from Sikorsky's workshop

The Sikorsky S-64, listed in the army as the CH-54 Tarhe, was built around a bare beam with no cargo compartment. Tall, widely splayed legs allowed it to drive over a load and lift it directly from below. In Vietnam the machines pulled shot-down equipment out of the jungle, carried artillery and dropped heavy bombs intended to blast a landing area through the vegetation. The type took its name from a chief of the Wyandot tribe.

What to watch out for

The legs of the helicopter bear the whole weight of the model during the build, so it pays to glue them only once things have dried and to level the mating surfaces beforehand. The polished surfaces of the shock struts come out well after a metallic shade is sprayed on and lightly polished. The tires gain depth from dry accentuation with a light dust pigment on the sidewalls.

Who the set is for

  • builders of models hung on a stand or shown in flight
  • anyone interested in the exact geometry of extended shock struts
  • modelers of helicopter subjects in the large scale
  • makers of display scenes without a base

The set covers the landing gear with wheels only; the helicopter itself has to be owned already.

FAQ

In the air the shock struts extend fully and the tires bear no load; on the ground it is exactly the other way round.

Yes, according to the name the wheels are part of this set.

For a machine on the ground the variant with compressed tires suits better, which the manufacturer offers separately.

Cut them from the casting blocks, level the mating surfaces and wash the surface so that the paint holds.
