Description

This is a Bristol Herculese fourteen cylinder two row sleeve valve radial engine, c.1941. It was used to power Beaufighter, Halifax, Sterling, Albermarle and Wellington aircraft during WW2. These are the first two renders of this project superimposed together in paint shop. I will be doing a lot more rendering here! What you can see is the sleeve valve drive gears under the front cover. I think this is about my most complicated model so far, Thanks for looking!

My father has been telling me how silent the starter was in a Willys-Knight his neighbor owned. I just bask in the hectoring phrase used in yacht appraisals, "In Bristol condition!"

Complicated and verrry detailed! If those engineers had seen our current technology to design these motors they wouldn't have believed it! Very impressive model! :)
