Scale Aircraft Conversions 48336: Macchi C.205 Veltro Landing Gear
PRICE: $16.95 MSRP
FOR: Hasegawa 1/48 kit
REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES: Cast Metal

Scale Aircraft Conversions not only does gear for new kits, but also provides metal gear for older kits as well, and they are quite welcome. This set is is for the Hasegawa/Italeri kit and like a lot of WWII fighter gear and quite simple compared to modern jets. There are two landing gear legs, two long retraction struts and two tail wheels as there were differences between early and late 205s. I like that SAC molds the yoke type gear as one piece as it makes it so much easier to install the main wheels. These are direct replacements for the kit parts and are nicely molded.

You can order these direct at http://www.scaleaircraftconversions.com if your local hobby shop or favorite on-line retailer does not stock them.
