About product

Reskit 1:35 - struts for the folded rotor blades of the Seahawk family

A set of parts made by 3D printing for models of the carrier-based helicopters of the Seahawk family in 1:35 scale. It contains the struts and fittings with which the folded main rotor blades are secured on the deck of a ship so they do not move in gusts of wind. The printing captures even a thin rod and the eye of a link, which in injection-molded plastic would have to be simplified. The set is not a model of the helicopter, it is an accessory for an existing kit.

The real subject

The carrier-based helicopters of the Seahawk family grew out of the army Black Hawk for service on ships. Folding both the rotor blades and the tail boom is essential on them: the hangar of a frigate or a destroyer is cramped and the machine would not otherwise fit into it. The folded blades are drawn in toward the boom and fixed with struts that are part of the aircraft's equipment. It is exactly those that give a parked machine the characteristic silhouette familiar to anyone who has seen a helicopter on the stern of a ship.

Building and painting tips

The 3D-printed parts are held on thin supports. Clip them off as close to the part as possible and level the remainder with a file or a scalpel, not with nippers, which would break the thin profile. They are glued with super glue. Apply a primer before painting, otherwise the surface of the print will show through. Fit the struts only once the blades are in place, so the length matches their actual position.

Who the set is for

  • For modelers building a helicopter in the folded shipboard configuration.
  • For dioramas with a ship's deck or hangar.
  • For builders of naval aircraft in 1:35 scale.

This is an accessory, not a complete model. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted.

FAQ

They hold the folded rotor blades against the tail boom so the wind does not move them on the deck of a ship. Without them the machine could not be parked safely.

Clip them off the supports as close to the part as possible and level the remainder with a file or a scalpel. Nippers would break the thin profile.

It is not. The set contains only the accessory parts, and you need to have the kit.
