ralphie Posted July 28, 2024 Posted July 28, 2024 Experimenting with the new engine from 42170 and my eyes fell on 42040. Obviously there should be an odd number of cylinders and a NACA cowling, but overall I’m very satisfied. Pistons wiggle appropriately. The rubber bits are half for looks, half to help keep everything in place. 8 cylinder radial seems possible, but maybe not this small. Quote
2GodBDGlory Posted July 28, 2024 Posted July 28, 2024 Fun modification! I think Sariel has been working on a larger-scale radial engine using these parts at the core, but this is my first time seeing a little one like this! It's also a pretty great set you're working from! Quote

ralphie Posted July 28, 2024 Author Posted July 28, 2024 Thanks folks. I was thinking about this for Lipko’s plane, but that’s a bad fit. Gotta think about TC27 next… Quote
