HELP! I dropped my Eagle…I have driven myself nearly crazy online trying to find a set of replacement landing gear in 1:48 for a Revell kit. I found the Squadron-sold set for Hasegawa kits, but will they fit my Revell? I don’t want to take a chance without advice. Searching on at LEAST 6-7 sites (why don’t all sites have easy search abilities?) hasn’t turned up any Revell matched landing gear for the Eagle. There is a 1:32 set, but this ain’t no “big-wheel” model even though I did buy a 1:32 kit over the holidays and am working on this one now.

Suggestions?

The landing gear for the Hasegawa kit will fit, however you will have o modify the mounting holes one the Revell kit.

Thanks, Bronto. I wondered about that option. Is it a difficult modification? It doesn’t really matter I guess since I don’t show my models in shows or anything. I’m a little scared since buying a set of Bf-110 wheels and the tail wheel was such a bad fit, I couldn’t even use it. I just want to avoid re-displaying my F-15 as an “in-flight”.

Thanks again!
