Boeing B-52 (G,H) Stratofortress Wheels set (weighted) (Resin & 3D Printed) Scale 1:72 ResKit RS72-0396 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RS72-0396 is a 1/72 wheels set (weighted) for the Boeing B-52G/H Stratofortress. Produced in resin and 3D printed parts, the set features detailed hub structure and subtle flattened tire contact areas to represent the heavy bomber at rest.

Aftermarket resin accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits.

Highly detailed resin parts intended for accurate 1/72 scale aircraft models.

On a 1/72 B-52 build, the multi-bogie landing gear is a dominant structural feature. The weighted profile enhances the grounded appearance of the aircraft, while crisp hub detailing remains visible after primer and light weathering on large-scale strategic bomber projects.

For modelers: carefully align each flattened tire section during dry-fit and check the model on a flat surface before final bonding. Ensure all landing gear assemblies sit evenly to maintain the correct stance across the long fuselage (kit-dependent).

FAQ

What does "weighted" indicate?

"Weighted" means the tires include a subtle flattened contact patch to simulate the aircraft resting under its own weight. Position this area carefully during installation.

Are these wheels compatible with all 1/72 B-52 kits?

The set is listed as Any / Universal for compatible 1/72 builds, but gear mounting points and axle dimensions vary between manufacturers. Test-fit before final assembly (kit-dependent).

How can I maintain proper alignment on a large bomber model?

During dry-fit, place the model on a flat surface and confirm all wheel units touch evenly. Minor adjustments before glue sets help maintain a balanced and realistic stance.
