About product

The Oberursel U.I rotary engine 1:32 (GasPatch)

A detailed 3D-printed resin model of the Oberursel U.I rotary aircraft engine in 1:32. It is an accessory for advanced modelers, not a model of an aircraft in its own right — the engine replaces the simplified plastic part in a kit and brings fine finning of the cylinders, valve gear and further details, which stand out markedly in the exposed nose of a period aircraft.

The real subject

The Oberursel U.I was a German nine-cylinder rotary engine, a license-built relative of the French Gnome engines. It powered a number of German fighters of the early First World War, above all the Fokker Eindecker monoplanes. In a rotary engine the whole block of cylinders and the propeller turn around a fixed crankshaft — thanks to that the engine cools itself and has its characteristic running.

Usage tips

Wash any print resin residue off the parts and carefully separate them from the print supports. Glue them with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). The fine finning of the cylinders comes out beautifully once a metallic base and a wash have been applied. Protect your airways while sanding.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers building First World War aircraft in 1:32
  • Anyone interested in a faithful rotary engine in an exposed nose
  • Advanced builders used to resin and 3D printing
  • Those who want to replace the simplified plastic engine of a kit

This is a detail accessory, not a model of an aircraft in its own right. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

No. It is a detailed model of a rotary engine, which is set into a model of an aircraft in place of the simplified plastic part. The aircraft itself is not included.

An engine in which the whole block of cylinders and the propeller turn around a fixed crankshaft. The rotation provides cooling of the cylinders and is typical of fighters of the First World War.

Cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Glue for plastic models does not hold on resin.
