Scale bombs???


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Hi all, anyone know where to get scale WWII bombs. Preferably American style? I found these at Hobby King, but are there any others?

https://hobbyking.com/en_us/quanum-r...ug-n-drop.html

I don't even need a working bomb release, I just need them to fix under the wing permanently. 1/5, 1/6, 1/7 scale, somewhere in that range?

Re: Scale bombs???

What about 3D printing?

A couple of the guys I know now have one. Maybe they can print some for you for a modest fee??


**Ding**... another reason for me to get one....

Actually, the link that Alain provided from parkflyerplastics.com had some for $4! Hard to beat that!

Re: Scale bombs???

While we're on the topic of scale bombs I thought I read somewhere recently in the Maac rules that projectiles were not allowed to be dropped from a plane. Wonder if they consider a scale bomb as a projectile?

MAAC safety code Paragraph 5.7 to 5.10, subject to interpretation. I would read this, If it's a harmless pay load like a tennis ball or blunt/light plastic deemed harmless object flown at a safe speed, it should be ok. I also threw in the CAR reg.

I hope this helps.
