Overview
Designed for modelers who prefer an unfolded rotor configuration, the Unfolded Complete Rotor Set replaces the simplified kit rotor assembly with a complete multi-part system developed for Italeri and Trumpeter 1:48 Wessex and H-34 kits.
At the heart of the set is a 28-part main rotor assembly, complemented by a multi-part main rotor hub, integrated pitch control linkages, rotor dampers and additional detail components. Several parts have been redesigned as integrated assemblies to simplify construction while maintaining the appearance of the original mechanism.
From the main rotor hub to the smallest visible components, every part has been developed as an integrated system to deliver a highly detailed rotor assembly without the complexity normally associated with multi-part construction.
Engineered Detail
Purpose-designed components engineered as a complete rotor system, combining individually assembled construction with practical assembly solutions.
28-Part Main Rotor Assembly
Built from 28 individually assembled components to reproduce the layered construction of the complete rotor head.
Multi-Part Main Rotor Hub
Pre-aligned hub structure with integrated oil lines, developed for simplified assembly and consistent alignment.
Integrated Pitch Control Linkage
Combined linkage and pivot assembly eliminates complex alignment while preserving the appearance of the original mechanism.
