Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion, MH-53E Sea Dragon unfolded Main Rotor (7 blades - 3 Engines) for Academy kit (3D printed) Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0400 for Helicopters Model Kit

ResKit RSU48-0400 provides a detailed unfolded main rotor assembly for the Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion and MH-53E Sea Dragon in 1/48, designed to represent the full seven-blade rotor configuration used on the three-engine heavy helicopter family.

Resin/3D printed aftermarket accessory for helicopter scale model kits and miniature replicas, focused on the large rotor system that defines the silhouette of these aircraft.

Precision parts for accurate 1/48 scale helicopter model builds, optimized for consistent blade geometry and hub detail visible when the rotor is displayed in the unfolded configuration.

The CH-53E and MH-53E variants are known for their prominent seven-blade rotor and large hub assembly. This set helps replicate that structure more clearly when the helicopter is displayed ready for operation rather than with folded blades.

For modelers: carefully check blade alignment during dry fitting before gluing the rotor hub. Remove any remaining support marks from the blade roots and paint rotor components separately before final assembly to maintain clean edges.

FAQ

Does this set represent the rotor in folded or unfolded configuration?

This version represents the rotor in the unfolded configuration, suitable for display of the helicopter ready for flight or parked with blades extended.

Is the rotor compatible with all CH-53 family kits?

The set is designed for the Academy kit. Other kits may differ in rotor hub mounting and dimensions, so compatibility can be kit-dependent.

How should the rotor blades be aligned during assembly?

Dry-fit the blades into the hub first and confirm even spacing and pitch before applying adhesive. Working on a flat surface helps maintain consistent blade angles.
