Yakovlev Yak-1/Yak-3 Wheels set Scale 1:72 ResKit RS72-0111 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RS72-0111 is a 1/72 wheels set for the Yakovlev Yak-1 and Yak-3. Produced as resin 3D printed parts, the set emphasizes hub face clarity and a clean tire edge, helping small-scale landing gear look sharper after paint.

Aftermarket resin accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits.

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

On compact 1/72 WWII fighters, the main wheels are clearly visible under the wings. Improved hub definition and a consistent tire profile support a tidy finish once you apply primer, base color, and a light wash.

For modelers: dry-fit the wheels to your kit struts before painting and check the stance on a flat surface. If needed, carefully adjust the mounting hole depth so both wheels sit evenly and the aircraft rests level (kit-dependent).

FAQ

Will these wheels fit any 1/72 Yak-1 or Yak-3 kit?

The set is listed as Any / Universal for compatible 1/72 builds, but axle size and gear leg detail vary. Always dry-fit and adjust the mounting hole if required (kit-dependent).

How can I keep hub detail crisp in 1/72?

Use thin primer and paint layers and apply a controlled wash around the hub. Avoid heavy paint buildup that could soften fine relief.

How do I ensure the model sits evenly?

Place the aircraft on a flat surface during dry-fit and confirm both wheels make even contact. Small corrections at the axle stage help achieve a balanced stance.
