F3H-2 Demon ejection seat w.safety belts, 1/48 - Quickboost QB48 498

The F3H-2 Demon ejection seat with Quickboost safety harness QB48 498 498 is a resin detailing accessory for scale models of the McDonnell F3H-2 Demon carrier-based fighter at a scale of 1/48. It replaces the seat supplied in the cockpit in order to provide a distinct representation of the seat and its molded harnesses.

For a 1/48 scale F3H-2 Demon model

The F3H Demon is an American carrier-based fighter aircraft designed by McDonnell and used by the US Navy during the Cold War period. The pilot’s seat is a highly visible element in an open cockpit: this accessory therefore helps enhance the level of detail in this area on a 1/48 scale reproduction.

The QB48 498 reference is designed for F3H-2 Demon kits in 1/48 scale, including those by Hobby Boss. At this scale, the real subject’s dimensions are reduced 48 times, which requires careful preparation of the small cockpit parts.

Quickboost resin accessory

This Quickboost set is made of resin and includes an ejection seat made up of several components, with the safety harnesses reproduced. Resin is particularly well suited for detailing cockpits thanks to the fineness of the raised details and molded shapes.

As with any resin accessory, you should carefully remove the parts from their sprues, then adjust the contact surfaces before gluing. Cyanoacrylate glue or a glue suitable for resin is needed. Applying a primer then makes painting easier and improves the visibility of the seat and strap details.
