Scale Aircraft Conversions 48123: He-219 landing gear
PRICE: $18.95 MSRP
FOR: Tamiya 1/48 kit
REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES: Cast Metal

The next new set from Scale Aircraft Conversions is a rather complex one for the Tamiya 1/48 He-219 'Uhu'. This set includes a number of rather small pieces so care will be needed when it comes to assembling this one. There are full gear mounts, main and nose gear legs and the usual batch of retraction struts.

The gear is quite well cast and all one needs to do is clean up the mold seams, paint things and install them in place as they are direct replacements for the kit parts. It is not uncommon for cast metal bits to be a bit bent but some careful straightening out will bring them into line once again.

You can order these direct athttp://www.scaleaircraftconversions.com if your local hobby shop does not stock them.
