Sea King folded main rotor for Hasegawa kit (3D Printed) Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0362

Aftermarket resin and 3D printed accessory designed for helicopter scale model kits, representing the folded main rotor assembly for the Sikorsky Sea King.

Detailed parts intended for accurate 1/48 scale helicopter models, reproducing the rotor hub structure, blade folding joints, and blade restraint configuration typical when the helicopter is parked or stored.

The Sea King is often displayed with its rotor blades folded to reduce the overall footprint on carriers or airfields. This configuration makes the rotor hub and blade hinge mechanisms more visible and adds distinctive visual interest to the model.

For modelers: dry-fit the rotor hub and folded blade components before painting to ensure correct positioning. Painting the hub, hinge mechanisms, and blades separately helps preserve the fine structural detail before final assembly.
