would the ball socket joint fail ? if you did or would it just blow to pieces
also you should encase one in lock tight!

Re: Modeling COX engines with 3D Printer
That's a nice engine and a stand too!
These plastic engines would be great for "retired" planes that are still displayed. They often look sort of sad without engines, but with these, painted in black and bright silver, and with a "real" propeller, they would look a lot better.

Re: Modeling COX engines with 3D Printer
Yes. Any problems.
jmcalata
I see you've painted models . I have more than 6.400 km (4.000 miles) to view the net ...
very good jmcalata
Re: Modeling COX engines with 3D Printer
Those engines and stands turned out really nice! I agree, they would be perfect for display models. The stands would be nice to display real engines on.

I'd use a real engine with the piston removed so the propeller spins as you drive along.
