P-47 Thunderbolt propeller Curtiss electric f.Trumpeter, 1/32 - Quickboost QB32 242

The reference Quickboost QB32 242 is a resin set depicting a Curtiss Electric propeller for the P-47 Thunderbolt in 1/32 scale by Trumpeter. This detailing accessory makes it possible to replace the propeller supplied in the compatible kit with a specific reproduction of this equipment type.

The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt is an iconic American fighter aircraft of the Second World War. Its propeller is a particularly eye-catching feature on a built model, especially when the aircraft is displayed on the ground, with its engine and cowling highlighted.

Assembly and finishing

Because the parts are made of resin, careful preparation is required before assembly: remove the casting stubs, lightly deburr, and check the bonding surfaces. A cyanoacrylate glue or a glue suitable for resin is generally used for this type of accessory. A primer then helps you check the surface condition before painting.

Particular attention should be paid to positioning the blades in order to keep a consistent and realistic geometry around the hub. The finish can be adapted to the chosen decoration for the represented P-47 Thunderbolt.
