Ruslan.P Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Good day! I find blueprints on engine Pratt & Whitney R-2800 (type 21 and 59). How i can find or receive it? My project is model of engine in 32-24 scale. Kagero is not blueprints. I find bluprints which are like that but on R-2800 https://a.radikal.ru/a25/2102/33/05948419711c.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dov Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 You want to create a 3D file? For understanding? For a resin or 3D print? Let me know! I find it interesting. I crawled many hours under such an engine. On a F4U and DC-6. Happy modelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bozothenutter Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Would be interested in anything you find, trying very hard not to rebuild a 48th Tamiya P-47 engine.... It looks off, either the crankcase is to large in diameter, the cylinders too skinny, or both! Vector engine is not worth it, Vector engine is not worth it, Vector engine is not worth it, 😉 Edited March 1, 2021 by Bozothenutter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruslan.P Posted July 19, 2023 Author Share Posted July 19, 2023 Good day all! i take a start of new project. It will Wright R-1820. I have question. Were cylinders in 1820 same as 2800? Can I use this detail in 1820? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmatthewbacon Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Well the cylinder bore and piston stroke listed on Wikipedia are different for the two engines so I’m guessing the answer is no. The R-2800 increased in power over the years and versions, so it’s possible that the variant with the detailed spec listed is different from others, but I think the basic conclusion must be that the cylinders on the two engines were different. best, M.

Work In Progress Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 equally importantly, the two engines were designed and built by completely different manufacturers. The 2800 is Pratt & Whitney, the 1820 is a Wright engine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
