This is one of the two newer "T" engine builder's kits, The Lynx.
The Lynx is brother to the other new mini engine kit, The Scorpion.
I picked the Lynx over the Scorpion simply because I liked the design better.

All the parts are of high quality. One of the BT-5 Intake Tubes was a little out of round. Not a problem, you only use half the tube on the cut intake.
These are tiny! I'll have to fill and prime them before gluing on the tube. Sure you don't have to do this, but filling the grain after gluing them on the engine tube would be hard.

Underneath them are the twin cutting templates.
That little ring for the eight cooling vanes can't be all you get. I would probably go to payloadbay.com for a real eight fin wrap to do the job.
ReplyDeleteHi Scott,
DeleteMore on that little ring later. You cut it out, place it against the 5/20 ring on the engine mount, mark with pencil and remove it. It actually works very well.
I glued my ring on the rear engine mount centering ring, then glued the vanes on the printed lines.
