Fairey Gannet Wheels set (3D Printed) Scale 1:48 ResKit RS48-0536 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RS48-0536 Wheels Set provides 3D printed wheels for 1/48 builds of the Fairey Gannet. The set is aimed at improving the look of the hubs and tire edges, which stand out on this aircraft thanks to the tall stance and open gear area.

Aftermarket resin accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits.

Highly detailed resin parts intended for accurate 1/48 scale aircraft models.

Use these wheels when kit parts feel a bit soft around the rim and hub detail, or when you want cleaner roundness and sharper definition before weathering.

For modelers: dry-fit the wheels on the kit axles early and check the hub depth against the landing gear legs. If the axle is slightly oversize, ream the wheel center gently rather than forcing it. After washing and priming, build up tire paint in thin layers to keep the tread detail crisp.

FAQ

Will these wheels fit any 1/48 Fairey Gannet kit?

The set is listed as Any / Universal for 1/48 Fairey Gannet builds, but axle diameter and brake detail placement can vary by kit. A quick test-fit will show if you need minor adjustment.

How should I prepare 3D printed wheels before painting?

Wash the parts, let them dry fully, and apply a thin primer coat. Keep primer light around tread and rim edges so the detail stays sharp.

What is the simplest way to avoid a wobble on the axle?

Check that the mounting hole is square to the wheel face. If needed, gently ream the hole and use a short pin or sleeve so both wheels sit parallel.
