About product

LACI 1:72 Convair CV-580 Allison 501 conversion

This is not an airplane kit but a resin conversion set for experienced modelers. The set serves to convert a model of the classic piston-engined Convair into the CV-580 turboprop version powered by Allison 501 engines. It holds the parts of the engine nacelles and related items in 1:72 scale. The accessory is made by LACI.

The real subject

The Convair CV-580 came about by converting the older piston-engined Convair 340/440. The original engines were replaced by Allison 501 turboprops, the aircraft was given reworked tail surfaces and it became a reliable regional passenger and freight machine.

Building tips

Wash the mold release agent off the parts, cut off the casting blocks and dry-fit them. Bond them with super glue (cyanoacrylate), sand resin with respiratory protection, and use a primer before painting.

Who the set is for

  • More experienced modelers building the Convair in 1:72.
  • Fans of civil aviation and turboprop conversions.
  • Those who want a faithful CV-580 version.

It is supplied as a resin accessory, unassembled and unpainted. The base model, paints and glue are not included in the package.
