Eduard FE838 Luftwaffe Rudder Pedals 1/48 – photo-etched detail set for Luftwaffe aircraft models

Eduard FE838 is a high-quality photo-etched parts set Eduard FE838 Luftwaffe rudder pedals 1/48, designed for modelers who want to add outstanding realism to their 1:48 scale Luftwaffe aircraft models. These parts replicate detailed rudder pedals used in German military aircraft from the World War II era. The set is manufactured by the renowned Czech company Eduard, known for its precise modeling accessories and attention to detail.

Historically, rudder pedals such as those offered in the FE838 set were a standard component of most Luftwaffe aircraft. They controlled the aircraft’s control surfaces, allowing the pilot to maneuver precisely in aircraft like the Messerschmitt Bf 109, Focke-Wulf Fw 190, or Heinkel He 111. Preserving original engineering solutions, these elements are an excellent choice for all modelers striving for an accurate reproduction of the cockpit of the most famous German combat aircraft from 1939–1945.
