Support the Heavyweights of the Sky If you build massive cargo planes or heavy bombers, you already know the struggle: standard fighter cradles are too steep and narrow, leaving flat-bellied models like the C-130 Hercules seesawing unstably on your workbench.

Designed specifically as an add-on pack for the Pro XL Pivoting Aircraft Jig, these large fuselage adapters solve the geometry problem. We swapped the deep "V" curve for a wider, shallower profile that perfectly accommodates the flat cargo floors and prominent landing gear sponsons of your biggest builds. To ensure complete stability, we've also included extended wing supports to effortlessly handle those massive wingspans!

Key Features

  • Wide-Body Clearance: Features a generous 85mm top opening to easily clear massive main landing gear sponsons without pinching the fuselage.

  • Auto-Centering Base: The shallow 45mm bottom channel incorporates a slight 2mm dish to naturally auto-center heavy fuselages while providing a solid resting shelf.

  • Extended Wing Support: Includes two 20mm longer wing supports to provide crucial extra reach and stability under wide-body wings.

  • Safe for Delicate Finishes: Tolerances are built-in to accommodate thick protective foam strips that compress to form a custom, scratch-free grip around the aircraft.

  • Broad Compatibility: Specifically engineered to fit the 1/72 C-130 Hercules, but equally perfect for massive bombers like the Lancaster, B-17, and B-24.

What’s Included

  • 2x 3D Printed Large Fuselage Cradles

  • 2x 20mm Extended Wing Supports

  • Pre-cut Non-Marring Foam Protective Strips
