Overview
The 5-Cylinder Radial Mini Engine Assembly Model is a fully functional, precision-crafted replica of a vintage aircraft-style radial engine. Built from over 230 CNC-machined components made of anodized aluminum alloy and stainless steel, it faithfully reproduces the structure and motion of a real 5-cylinder radial engine. Powered by a compact electric motor and rechargeable lithium battery, the model brings the engine to life—demonstrating synchronized piston motion, crankshaft rotation, and connecting rod movement through transparent viewing windows. The assembly process is both educational and engaging, taking approximately 3 to 4 hours with clearly labeled parts and a detailed step-by-step manual. An integrated safety feature ensures the motor shuts off in case of obstruction, protecting the internal mechanisms. Designed for mechanical enthusiasts, students, and collectors, this model serves as both an impressive display piece and a powerful hands-on learning tool for exploring the fundamentals of mechanical engineering and radial engine operation.
