MSRP: $16.95 Web Site: www.aires.cz This set is about as simple as it gets. Provided are a set of wheel wells for the Hasegawa SH-3 kit… The pour blocks were easily removed, and I only needed to round off the edges of the new wells to make them fit. The kit wheel well lug sockets need to be removed from inside the sponsons, and some thinning of the aft of the MAD bird sponson is required before the replacement well will slide in. The detail is far and above the kit items (to the left in the pictures), including structural rivets, hydraulic lines, and connectors. A coat of white paint and they will be ready to install! An easy, impressive upgrade from Aires; thanks to them for the review sample and taking the time to develop this overlooked area! It was enough to motivate me to build the rest of the helicopter…
