Flexi Display for Aircraft

Gallery Article by Kelly Quirk

 

This is a real neat product for displaying your model aircraft, especially if you want to do an "in flight" display.  It is made by Creative Displays, who's info I'll provide at the end of this review. 

What's great about this type of stand, is that it is fully adjustable and requires no modifications to your model.  The old days of drilling a hole in your jet or ramming a rod up it's tailpipe are over!  The base is a sturdy piece of solid Plexiglas, with three free swinging arms on ball mounts coming up out of the center.  At the end of every arm is a non slip rubber cap, which will firmly hold your model in place without causing any damage to the finish.  You can adjust the arms any way you desire, to fit any type and scale of aircraft.  You can even get creative and pose your plane in a bank, climb or dive.

As you can see, I am able to pose many types of aircraft, even a helicopter.  The Hellcat is 1/32 scale, and in fact I posed a 1/32 Tamiya F-4 on this same stand, and it held it with no problems. 

This product gets a thumbs up from me - it is very well made and takes the hassle out of figuring out a way to do those in flight displays.  Thanks to Albert Rodriguez for the sample!  Check out their website for more info and pictures!
