The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. The prop blades are very nicely rendered
and the hub is loaded with fine detailing which you can see in the photo above. You get enough blades and hubs
for both engines. You also get an alignment tool made of resin that will
help you correctly set the pitch on each blade. The hubs are a 2 piece
unit.
The blades are well
done and the hubs are very nicely detailed and a pleasant improvement over the
kit parts. The kit parts have straight spines (blades?) on the hub, but
the spines on these Quickboost hubs are curved to give a spiral effect. The poseable
prop blades will permit you to easily have feathered
blades on one of your engines if you chose to go the battle damage route in a
diorama situation.
You can purchase these and other
fine resin detail items directly from QuickBoost.
I would like to
thank QuickBoost
for providing me with this review sample.
