@southwestforests:

Thanks!

Does anyone know of where to get some small motors to use in things like the AMT Enterprise nacelles to make the inner bussard blades spin?

Thanks

You got it Dunsel! Make sure you get 'em centered well, these babies prolly have a lot of torque. I hope they're pretty quiet in there. We'll see. True and I will also have to see if they fit in since I had to modify my pylon mounting to the nacelle. Also,I'll have to look into reducing them electr...

Here are some small gearhead motors that could spin Paulbo's photoetch Bussard blades for the classic 18" E kit, courtesy All Electronics. <a href="http://www.allelectronics.com/make-a-store/item/DCM-318/12-VDC-58-RPM-MINI-MOTOR/1.html">58 RPM, 12 V, 20mA</a> <a href="http://www...

PS I simply patched the original hole by glueing a strip of plastic cut to size and inserting it into the old hole. Use regular glue to set it in and after it dries,use a light coat of CA to get all the seams and get it in there strong. Then just sand to shape,prime,finish putty,sand and prime again.

Well, I sawed the warp nacelles off the pylons on my AMT Enterprise, and I want to fill the holes in the nacelles and re-cut them, but my question is what is the best method? Cut styrene sheet to fit, glue and then fill the cracks normally? Or can I use some tape to cover the hole and then fill wit...
