About product

Ram air turbine for the A-6 Intruder, 1:48

An accessory set of the ram air turbine for a model of the American A-6 carrier bomber in 1:48. It is not a model of the aircraft but a replacement part. The ram air turbine is a small propeller that the aircraft extends into the airflow as soon as it loses its main source of electricity or of hydraulic pressure. The airflow spins it, and it drives an emergency generator or pump.

What it is for

  • Replacing the simplified plastic part of the turbine with a faithful casting.
  • Showing the fine blades that a mold cannot manage in plastic in this scale.
  • A model built with the turbine extended, that is in the emergency configuration.
  • More detail on the fuselage, where the turbine is visible.

Building and painting tips

Cut the parts off the casting blocks with a fine saw and sand the cut surface. Wash the resin in lukewarm water with detergent before painting, because of the mold release residue. It is glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). In 1:48 the blades are even smaller than in larger scales, so handle the part with tweezers by its carrier and fit the turbine at the end of the build. Protect your airways when sanding resin.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of carrier aircraft in 1:48.
  • Modelers who are finishing off small details of the fuselage.
  • More experienced builders working with resin.

The set contains only the parts of the turbine. Glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

A small propeller extended into the airflow that drives an emergency generator or pump when the main source fails.

It is not. It is an accessory set for a finished kit.

Cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Solvent cement for plastic does not work on resin.

The blades are very small in this scale. Handle the part with tweezers by its carrier.
