1/2A P-61C Profile Scale
« on: March 31, 2020, 10:15:42 AM »
This laser cut kit is a Profile Scale P-61C Black Widow night fighter for twin Cox Babe Bee engines. The airplane is 1/24th scale. The wingspan is 33” with a 166 square inch wing area. The instructions explain how to modify the kit to build it as a P-61B. The “B” model had shaft driven superchargers, the “C” model had Turbo Superchargers. The full scale airplane had a pair of 2800 HP rated turbo supercharged R2800 engines. The P 61C model had 1600 HP more than the A and B models and was 60 MPH faster. The airplanes carried quad 50 caliber machine guns in the top turret and quad 20 mm cannons in the lower fuselage. The line guide is removable, it bolts to the inboard nacelle with a pair of 2-56 Socket Head Cap Screws into blind nuts. The flying lines attach to the Bellcrank using round buttons like a racing airplane. The airplane does not have any leadouts or lines attached for static judging. The CAD plans show all parts full size. The kit contains all the control system parts for the removable lines. The kit buyers will get a .pdf file of the Squadron Signal book on the Northrop P-61 and a .jpg of the 3 view of the airplane. If you want to compete in 1/2A Profile Scale with a twin you don’t see every day consider this kit. The kits sell for $99.00 plus shipping from zip code 60449.
