guitarlute101 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Hi everyone, I've got my hands on the new Austro-Daimler 120PS Aero Engine in 1:16 scale by Wiener Modellbau Manufactur. This beauty of a kit is designed and produced by Peter Plattner. It's a multi-media kit that that contains resin, photo-etch, CNC milled push rods and detail wire. Here are some pictures............ The engine block..................... The cylinders............... The magnetos and mounting fixtures................. Three different types of exhaust pipes to choose from : long and straight, long and curved, short and curved More plumbing and detail parts.................... Spark plugs....................... Rockers and linkages.............. Photo-etch...................... Wire detail....................... CNC milled push rods....................... The instructions were provided by PDF. Here are pictures of the incredibly detailed engine built by Peter Plattner. I'm really excited to start this kit!! Mark 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUY5Y Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Criticism if I may? I think the 3rd nut from the left is slightly out of alignment with Mars.Close though........"bangs head on table". Incredible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
