Trubbie Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Smaller than a wrist watch. You'd probably need nerves of steel and the eyesight of a Hawk to put it together. It puts many other larger scale kit engines to shame. Trubbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuro Nezumi Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Their Le Rhone 9C would be ideal for Airfix's Sopwith Pup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray S Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Very interesting. I thought one of Vector's engines was detailed in 1/48 but this takes the biscuit! Well worth thinking about, especially as I am in the WW1 build frame of mind at the moment. Cheers, Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melvyn hiscock Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 The 100hp Gnome opens up other possibilities with the Airfix Pup too. Whitehead built versions had the Monosoupape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Callahan Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Anyone who could get all of those parts away from the pouring blocks and attached to the engine is a better modeller than I am! And I'm a 1:72 only guy, so at least I'm used to the scale.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashwo99 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 It's times like this I like being young, smaller fingers means smaller parts can be handled, I will now have to acquire an airfix pup to build one of these into Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMStreet Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Love the photos. I could use a LOT of these engines in projects stalled through lack of decent parts. Does anyone know of a UK distributor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pin Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 I don't think there is a UK distributor - I ordered directly from Israel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
