The model depicts a racing version of the famous Avrocar, inspired by the real-life AVRO Canada VZ-9 Avrocar vehicle, developed during the Cold War for the USA and Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe model created by Fly is an exceptional miniature of the experimental vehicle that was tested between 1959–1961 by the United States and Canada. The original Avrocar was intended to be an innovative \"flying saucer\" type vehicle capable of vertical take-off and landing. Although the project was never mass-produced, it gained fame as one of the most recognizable experimental aircraft projects of the Cold War. Fly 72018 interprets this design as the racing version, “Racer X,” making it a perfect addition to a collection of aviation vehicles from the \"what if...\" genre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe product is made of high-quality plastic, which is easy to work with and offers good detail quality, allowing for accurate reproduction of Avrocar’s details. The kit includes a clear assembly manual and parts that require gluing and painting. There are no metal or resin parts included, meaning the model is intended entirely for self-assembly from plastic components, which enhances its authenticity and gives the modeller considerable freedom in choosing finishing techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/72\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of use: Canada, United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical period: Cold War (1950s and 60s)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet contents: sprues with parts to assemble, clear instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fly 72018 Avrocar Racer X in 1\/72 scale will be appreciated by both experienced modellers looking for unconventional projects and collectors of rare experimental vehicles.
