CUSTOM SCALING
We understand that everyone builds aircraft models in different scales, and it is not feasible for us to create a set of models for every scale. Therefore, you can adjust the size of the model according to your requirements.
To change the scale, modify the .3MF file by either increasing or decreasing the model size in percentage. The model is provided in a 1/8 scale.
Examples of scale changes:
To change to a 1/6 scale, increase the model size by 33.3%.
To change to a 1/10 scale, decrease the model size by 20%.
3D printable figure pilot
The pilot figurine sitting in the cockpit is one of the most important components of every RC airplane. It is crucial for the overall aesthetic impression, as nothing is worse than seeing a beautifully built model airplane spoiled by an unattractive or missing pilot figurine. However, many modelers consider this small detail to be insignificant. Nevertheless, we believe that it is a misconception, and therefore, we offer a wide selection of 3D printed pilot and crew models ranging from the 1st and 2nd World War eras to the modern era of aviation.
Description
During the Korean War, United States Air Force (USAF) pilots played a crucial role in supporting ground troops and engaging enemy forces. They were exposed to various challenges and dangers, but their performance and bravery brought many successes for the USAF.
Throughout the war, the USAF conducted airstrikes on strategic targets such as bridges, communications, and factories to weaken and disrupt North Korea’s ability to wage war. USAF pilots also provided aerial support to ground troops, attacking enemy artillery positions, vehicles, and other targets. Among the most notable successes were the defense of the city of Pusan, where USAF pilots successfully held off advancing Korean People’s Army forces.
USAF pilots had to deal with many challenges, including adverse weather conditions and anti-aircraft attacks. Enemy anti-aircraft fire was very intense, which meant that pilots had to be constantly vigilant and ready to react. Nevertheless, USAF pilots became masters of survival, which allowed them to survive many dangerous situations.
Among the most notable USAF pilots in the Korean War were Joseph McConnell, who shot down 16 planes and became the first pilot to earn the title of “Jet Ace.” Other pilots who distinguished themselves included James Jabara, George Davis, and Frederick “Boots” Blesse.
Overall, USAF pilots became an important factor in the Korean War battles. With their help, ground units were successful in fighting against enemy forces, bringing ultimate victory to the USA and their allies.
