Keith Cox Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Here is a B-25 starting its engines. Notice that the props are turning counter-clockwise when viewed from the front of the aircraft. https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=what+radial+engine+did+the+b-25+use%3f&docid=608044030302029041&mid=7C3841E69B528CF7AB477C3841E69B528CF7AB47&view=detail&FORM=VIRE Really.

Keith Cox Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Most piston/radial engines turn this way with few exceptions. I was not trying to be a know-it-all newbie but was trying to help out a fellow modeler with an issue that can be easily corrected. I even offered some replacement blades to be part of the solution and not the problem. Really. Jack and LSP_Kevin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind having mistakes pointed out to me at all. I'm not sure I'll have the motivation to fix them now, but maybe someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 (edited) Keith, having said "really" maybe in a awkward way, ofcourse it's obvious when looking more closely, but this strafer is looking very good indeed, great finish!! And very welcome to this nutty bunch, great entrance you did with this build!! Jack. Edited May 17, 2020 by Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Cox Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Thanks to everyone for the replies. And Brenhen, if you'd like the Loon replacement props blades, just let me know and their yours. Kindest regards to all. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
