Hey folks,
I finally got my hands on the TECHING DM119 Twin-Spool Turbofan Engine model kit and spent the last few days putting it together.
This thing is a real engineering marvel – over 1000+ metal parts, working fan blades, gearbox, and you can actually see the spools spin when powered up. The assembly was challenging but super satisfying, almost like working on the real thing in miniature.
What impressed me most is the detail of the core engine. You can really learn how air goes through the fan, compressor, combustion, and turbine stages. For anyone into aviation models or just mechanical builds, this is one of the coolest kits I’ve ever tried.
Here is the picture:
Curious – has anyone here built other engine models (jet or piston)? Would love to see your projects too!
Sorry, my phone camera doesn’t have the best resolution, so I can’t take high-quality photos. In a few days, I’m thinking of inviting my photographer friend to help me shoot a video instead.
