This product maximizes the accurate reproduction of the shape of the real aircraft, a large number of convex rivets, and reference to the real aircraft parts and cabin lines. It is also optimized for the modeling process to minimize the workload of filling and sanding.
Transparent cockpit parts are directly referenced to real aircraft parts, and the combination of parts is seamless.
To ensure accurate fuselage shape and maximize the retention of the rear fuselage tab rivet details, the fuselage consists of four pieces of cleverly designed parts, which are selected at the cabin line to minimize the traditional filling and sanding work and ensure that the surface tab details will not be affected by the excellent combination of the guarantees.
In order to accurately reproduce the elliptical cross-section of the fairing and the complex shape of the engine cowl to fuselage joint, we did not adopt the one-piece design of the engine cowl, and the excellent combination of sub-parts protects the nail details that may be affected by the sanding of the surface mold line caused by the slider mold, and also accurately restores the internal support structure of the engine cowl and the engine suspension structure. The staggered combination of the upper and lower engine intake blades accurately reproduces the vortex shape of the engine blades.
