About product

The Oberursel U.III in 1:48 from GasPatch Models

The set is a separate, finely detailed model of the rare Oberursel U.III two-row rotary engine in 1:48. It is printed by the modern technology of 3D printing from photopolymer resin, thanks to which it faithfully captures the arrangement of the cylinders and the valve gear. It is not a model of an aircraft but an accessory with which you bring out the engine section of a period aircraft.

The real subject

The Oberursel U.III was a German fourteen-cylinder two-row rotary engine following on from the older single-row designs. It was among the experimental powerplants providing a higher output and was intended for the more powerful fighting aircraft of the close of the First World War. Like the other rotary engines it was cooled by air and turned with the whole block of cylinders.

Building and painting tips

Wash the print resin residue off the parts and separate them from the print supports. Do the gluing with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue), and the sanding with respiratory protection. The engine suits metallic shades completed by a dark wash into the recesses and fine accenting of the edges; brass and copper accents on the plumbing increase the realism.

Who it is for

  • Builders of First World War aircraft with an exposed engine section
  • More experienced modelers working with resin
  • Collectors of aircraft engines and makers of dioramas

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The glue, the paints and the base model are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
