Bristol Beaufort, Propellers Detailing set (3D-Printed) Scale 1:72 Metallic Details MDR72108 - For Aircraft Model Kits

Metallic Details MDR72108 is a 3D-printed propeller detailing set for the Bristol Beaufort in 1/72. It is intended to refine the look of the aircraft’s front end with cleaner propeller shapes than many kit parts can provide.

The set is for an aircraft model project only; the kit is not included. Use it when you want more consistent blade edges and a more defined propeller appearance on a compact-scale build.

The Bristol Beaufort is a twin-engine aircraft, and propellers sit in a very visible position. Replacing them is a straightforward way to change the overall “read” of the model without reworking large assemblies.

For modelers: check blade pitch and “clocking” so both propellers match when viewed from the front. Test-fit the hubs to your kit’s spinners/nacelles first, then prime to verify edges before painting. If you build a simple card jig to hold the hub centered, it helps keep alignment consistent while the glue sets.

FAQ

Is this set designed for a specific kit brand?

No brand is specified for this set. Fit can vary between manufacturers, so test-fit the hub and mounting points before final installation.

What should I check first during installation?

Confirm the hub diameter and the mounting interface to your kit. Dry-fit both propellers and compare blade pitch so the left and right sides look consistent.

Should the propellers be painted before mounting?

Often yes. Prime and paint the propellers separately, then attach them after the nacelle/spinner area is finished to reduce touch-ups in tight spaces.
