Sikorsky CH-53 (G,E,J)/MH-53M Wheels set Scale 1:72 ResKit RS72-0063 for Helicopters Model Kit

ResKit RS72-0063 is a 1/72 wheels set for the Sikorsky CH-53 (G,E,J)/MH-53M. Produced as resin 3D printed parts, the set is focused on sharper hub relief and consistent tire profiles, which helps a heavy helicopter stance look more convincing in small scale.

Aftermarket resin accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits.

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

On CH-53 family builds, the landing gear area is prominent and the aircraft sits low and wide. Clean wheel geometry and clear hub detail help the model look more structured after primer, paint, and subtle dusting on the tires.

For modelers: test-fit all wheels to the kit struts before paint and check the model on a flat surface to confirm even contact. If needed, open mounting holes gradually and keep left/right wheel spacing matched so the helicopter sits square (kit-dependent).

FAQ

Will these wheels fit any 1/72 CH-53 or MH-53 kit?

The set is listed as Any / Universal for compatible 1/72 builds, but axle and strut geometry differ between kits. Dry-fit first and adjust mounting holes if required (kit-dependent).

How do I keep a heavy helicopter stance even?

Dry-fit all wheels and place the model on a flat surface to check contact points. Make small adjustments at the axle stage and keep wheel spacing consistent left to right.

What is the recommended way to paint small wheel hubs in 1/72?

Prime lightly, apply thin paint coats, then use a controlled wash around the hub. This brings out hub relief without flooding fine detail.
