About product

Omask 1:48 F4U-1A/2 Corsair — Landing Gear Bay Plugs (for Magic Factory)

A note right up front: this is not a kit or an airplane model. It is a modeling accessory — shaped plugs made of flexible foam that exactly fill the landing gear bays of the F4U-1A/2 Corsair model in 1:48 scale from Magic Factory. The model itself is not included in the package.

What the plugs are for

The Corsair has its bays set deep in the gull-shaped wing, and the modeler paints and details them before closing up the model. Once the whole model is then sprayed from the outside, the bays must be sealed — otherwise paint gets into them and the finished interior is ruined. Masking tape and cotton wool are hard to shape into such a cavity and still do not seal it properly. The plug simply drops into the bay, the model is sprayed, and once it dries the plug is removed. Fast, tight and repeatable with precision. The plug also protects the bay during sanding and handling — sanding dust cannot get inside.

Compatibility

Each plug is shaped to the bay of a specific kit. This set is designed exclusively for the 1:48 F4U-1A/2 Corsair from Magic Factory. It will not fit Corsairs from other manufacturers, even of the same aircraft type — the shape of the bay differs from kit to kit. Make sure you have exactly this kit.

The real subject

The Vought F4U Corsair was an American carrier-based fighter of the Second World War, recognizable at a glance by its gull-shaped wing — which allowed the landing gear legs to be shortened under the enormous propeller. The F4U-2 was a night-fighter version fitted with radar, which let it operate after dark as well.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of the 1:48 Corsair from Magic Factory.
  • Modelers who spray with an airbrush and want the bays kept safe.
  • Anyone who wants to save time on laborious cavity masking.

This is an accessory for the model, not a model itself. The kit, paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. This is an accessory — plugs for the landing gear bays. You need to already have the F4U-1A/2 Corsair kit in 1:48 scale; it is not included in the package.

No. The plugs are shaped exactly to the bays of the Magic Factory kit. A different Corsair kit has differently shaped bays, and the plug will not fit them.

From flexible foam. It compresses slightly in the bay and settles against its walls on its own, so it seals even an irregular shape without damaging the paint.

The plug is faster and seals better. A deep, intricate cavity is only sealed with tape and cotton wool with a lot of effort and rarely perfectly — the plug fits on the first try.
