RC ERA C170 Sensor Pod Optoelectronic Kit for 1:48 Scale Apache Helicopter

Erase Front-Impact Scuffs, Replace Lost Targeting Pod Shrouds, and Restore Your Attack Gunship's Iconic Nose Realism

The nose-mounted optoelectronic sensor array (simulating the real Apache's TADS/PNVS target acquisition system) is the most distinctive focal point on the front of your military model. Positioned at the very tip of the lower fuselage nose, this micro gimbal assembly takes the direct impact during any forward collisions, rough landings, or nose-first tumbles while executing aggressive 3D stunt mode maneuvers. Hard impacts frequently snap the tiny rotating pivot pins, lose the delicate side panels, or shatter the simulated green lens housings. Flying with a broken, missing, or hollow sensor pod leaves your helicopter's nose looking stripped and unfinished, totally ruining its premium scale military look. Replacing your battle-damaged tracker components with this factory-original multi-piece optoelectronic pod kit instantly restores the aggressive, authentic tactical aesthetic of your gunship.  Ships worldwide.

Product Highlights

• Comprehensive Rebuild Assembly Package: Features a full structural set including the main lens shroud, central rotating core ring, side tracking brackets, and rear locking cap.

• Simulated High-Realism Green Lens Filter: Crafted with vibrant mock green camera glass inserts on the main sensor window to perfectly mimic actual night-vision and thermal tracking optics.

• Molded Pivot Architecture: Engineered with factory-accurate inner alignment notches that allow the scale pod to set snugly onto the central chin axis.

• Lightweight Precision Polymer Composites: Formulated from thin-walled, high-tensile engineering plastic that adds virtually zero weight to the nose, keeping your flight center of gravity perfectly balanced.

What’s in the Box

• 1 x RC ERA C170 Sensor Pod

Install Tips

• Removing Damaged Front Shrouds: Unsnap or slide out the broken nose radar housing fragments from the lower chin section of your Apache airframe; clear away any trapped dirt or old adhesive from the mounting bracket track.

• Aligning the Core Pivot Ring: Take the central round core connector and seat it directly onto the fuselage's main front vertical locating pin, ensuring the inner track faces straight forward.

• Assembling the Green Lens Shroud and Brackets: Press the left and right side outer covers over the central core alignment ring; push the front face shell containing the green simulated optic lens tightly together with the side plates until the locking pins click home.

• Securing the Base Cap and Testing Stability: Snap the flat rear locking cap onto the back of the pod to seal the tracking module into a unified sphere; gently nudge the pod by hand to verify it stays locked in place without loose wobbling before powering up your model for flight.
