F4U Corsair/F6F Hellcat Land based Wheels set Scale 1:72 ResKit RS72-0105 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RS72-0105 is a 3D printed resin wheels set for 1/72 F4U Corsair and F6F Hellcat builds in a land based configuration. The main upgrade is cleaner tire sidewalls and sharper hub detail, helping the landing gear look more defined on parked aircraft.

Aftermarket resin accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits.

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

On WWII carrier fighters displayed in a land based setting, the wheels are clearly visible and can draw attention if kit parts are simplified. This set supports a more precise rim edge and a consistent tire profile under primer and paint.

For modelers: confirm axle diameter and gear leg fit before paint. Prime lightly to preserve hub detail, paint hubs first and tires second, then test-fit on a flat surface to ensure both mains sit evenly before final glue (kit-dependent).

FAQ

Will this set fit any 1/72 Corsair or Hellcat kit?

The set is listed as Any / Universal, but axle diameter and gear leg design differ by kit brand. Dry-fit first and adjust mounting holes if required (kit-dependent).

What does "land based" refer to?

It indicates the wheel style intended for aircraft displayed in a land-based configuration rather than a carrier deck context, affecting the visual presentation of the tires.

How can I keep both main wheels aligned?

Test-fit both wheels and place the model on a flat surface before glue fully sets. Let the adhesive cure while the aircraft is supported level to maintain an even stance.
