About product

A corrected nose and front landing gear for the Me 262 A-1a, 1:72 scale

This is a correction set, not a model of an aircraft. It replaces the nose of the kit with a printed part with the gun muzzles drilled out and adds a front landing gear leg with its wheel. Correction sets arise where a kit misses or simplifies a shape: on the Me 262 the nose is the most watched part of the silhouette, because the whole gun armament was concentrated in it and the muzzles of four weapons are clearly visible at the front of the machine. An injection mold makes them at best as suggested dimples.

The real subject

The Messerschmitt Me 262 was the first jet combat aircraft built in series. It was powered by a pair of turbojet engines in nacelles under the wing. The A-1a version was the fighter and carried four 30 mm cannon in the nose, that is weapons of great destructive power but low muzzle velocity. The machine had a nose landing gear, which was still unusual in German production of the time.

Usage tips

  • Wash the parts in lukewarm water with detergent, residues stay on the surface after printing.
  • Cut the print supports off as close to the part as possible and sand the marks away; they have nothing to do with casting.
  • Cut the original nose off according to the instructions and keep the cut square, as a slanted cut shifts the axis.
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate and try the fit dry first.
  • Fit the front landing gear at the very end, after varnishing, so that it does not break off during handling.

Who it is for

The set is for modelers building the Me 262 who want the correct shape of the nose with open gun muzzles. The work calls for cutting the original part off, so a sure hand with a knife and a saw comes in useful.

It is not a model of an aircraft. The base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. It is a correction set for an Me 262 kit in 1:72 that you already have.

The whole gun armament was concentrated in the nose and the muzzles of four weapons are clearly visible at the front of the machine. An injection mold makes them at best as suggested dimples.

They are thin projections that hold the part on the platform during printing. Cut them off as close to the part as possible and sand the mark away. They have nothing to do with casting.
