NewRay 1:42 Cessna 172 Skyhawk with Wheel Diecast Aircraft, for 12 months to 500 months

Arrived very quickly and safe. This airplane was very easy to assemble, being made of four parts held together with four small screws. A small screw driver is included though I used one from my modeling box for better grip. Once assembled the model appears correct if rather simple in appearance. One improvement would be the addition of some additional weight to the nose. As it is if you chose to display the plane without the stand it will not sit level on its tricycle gear. I added a little detail with paint for the tires, navigation lights and a little light weathering. It seems durable enough for moderate play. The plane overall seems to be made of a plastic that is stronger and more flexible that the polystyrene commonly used in plastic model kits. The landing gear and wing supports seem to particularly resilient. Overall I found this kit/toy to pretty good for the money (~$10) and have also ordered the float plane version.

I used this model for my CFI checkride and my DPE really liked how I used it for teaching. I'm going to continue using it for ground lessons. Only mild complaint is as everyone else says, it's tail heavy so it doesn't stay on the front nose wheel but that doesn't matter to me. I don't get the reviews saying it's bad quality, it's the exact quality I expect for under $20. If you want a high quality model Cessna to display, you're gonna need to spend well over $200.

Only issue was the plastic for the stand was not cut properly in factory to insert into the base, so i melted the plastic just a bit, and voilà. Comes with four screws instructions and a screw driver for easy assembly. The tab to open the box was a bit ripped so i was not sure if it was new or previously owned but unused. Still, it was clean and came together nicely. Not fancy

I bought this for my 1.5yr old son. He likes to watch small planes fly everywhere around our house and I didn't want him destroying my delicate display models. This thing is robust and it takes a lot of abuse. My son loves to play with it. It still remains assembled. The plastic is flexible and can endure heavy use. The plane is also a faithful recreation of the Cessna 172. I have several scale models of the 172 but this toy more closely represents the real airplane in size and shape. The only negative is the assembly process. The plane is screwed together. The screw holes in the wing were not tapped and it was very hard to assemble the wing to the fuselage.

This model is a nice replica of a popular plane. I was looking for a plane to go with my 1:43 scale model cars and at 1:42 scale this is about as close as you can get. Made of a durable plastic it comes in 4 pieces which are easy to assemble. Held together by small screws it is important to follow the simple instructions as the screws differ in size according to the piece being fastened. I painted the tires black adding to the realism and simply made a support to lift the tail so it sits properly with all three tires on the runway.

I’m disappointed! NOT DIE-CAST! The box was opened! Black finger prints everywhere. I also had to disinfect it prior to touching and disinfect myself after assembly. The wings had to snapped in on the back after putting the hook in the front, then the main gear had to be screwed into the wings to hold them both together. The wing struts screw in but care must be taken to get it aligned properly or the cheap crap won’t screw together. If you are able to get it all assembled, you are still left with a model aircraft that has an aft CG so it won’t even rest properly on its wheels and a stand that the fit to the airplane is even worse as it like to eject itself off the stand as the fit is loose with the airplane, but then again, it’s another fantastic China made POS!

so mine came as a dirty product. i suspect it is not used but it was not properly produced and cleaned when it got packed. secondly it was not made correctly. the stand hole was not opened. so i have a stand but it doesn't have an opening on the bottom of the airplane to mount on. so the stand is useless for me. secondly know this it is tail heavy, it won't stand level as it is. very cheaply made chinese plastic. i doubt it will last a long time. it seems very fragile so be careful when you handle it. as money wise, as they say, you get what you pay, i think this price is too much for this quality product. i will use it for instructional aid if it doesnt break in the frist lesson :))

The structure of the airplane is great. Easy to put together and sturdy. The paint on the aircraft is terrible, the paint was smudged looks defective. No complaints other then the paint.

Looks the part, and my son enjoys playing with it.

古い商品だからかウィンドウボックスのせいで中身が黄変。 使い物になりませんでした、、。

Great model plane for the price! It has a great attention to details and a convenient display stand. I personally think it is a great to display, and it is as great; (if not greater) then some of the more expensive options out there. I would have to say that the package was a little "roughened" up, but that was more or less the shipping company's fault. Otherwise I highly recommend this product!

Buen producto y buena calidad, gracias

セスナ１７２の模型が少ない中、安い割にはクオリティーが高いモデルと思います。 ただし、輸入なので若干の汚れがありましたが許容範囲かなと思います。
