Default RE: hanger9 corsair dummy engine question


'Fred, I am not using any dummy radial engine. I also have a Top Flite 1/8 scale dummy, but it's too big in diameter and won't fit without trimming away the valve covers. The dummy radial engine for the Kyosho Corsair is slightly smaller and will fit better, but it still requires some cutting. The dummy engine you see above is just a picture of the real Pratt & Whitney R2800 printed out on decal paper and pasted on 3/32" ply. That's why I said it's "cheap and cheesy". Spinner is Tru-Turn 1-1/4" prop hub. '

Richard , thanks, it was a topic on CMP Hellcat a year ago and after rereading it my apologies, you were talking about it fitting in the Hellcat.

I have the TF 60 Corsair and just wanted a more detailed dummy engine.
