ZLIN Z-42M, 1/72 - Hobby Boss 80231

Planned for September 2026.

The reference 80231 from Hobby Boss recreates the Zlín Z-42M at the 1/72 scale. This build-it-yourself model represents a light two-seat single-engine aircraft designed for flight instruction and training.

The Zlín Z-42M belongs to the Czech Zlín Z 42 family of aircraft. It is characterized by its low-wing configuration and a fixed tricycle landing gear, features that give it a recognizable silhouette among European trainer aircraft.

At the 1/72 scale, each dimension of the real aircraft is reduced 72 times. This format allows you to create a compact model, suitable for a civil aviation collection, training use, or a contemporary display.

Assembly requires the usual supplies for static model building: glue suited to plastic, preparation tools, paints, and finishing products chosen according to the desired look. A fine primer can help with painting, while careful application of the decals helps to reproduce the appearance of the aircraft shown.
