28.6 mm 3D-printed Spinner/Fan for the Fun Scale Models FW-190

Description

This Custom-designed 3D-printed 3-blade spinner was designed specifically for the “Fun Scale Models” 27″ wingspan FW-190 Park-flyer.   This model is offered as a laser-cut short kit by Manzano Lazer works!

This spinner is 1.125″ in diameter and 1.65″ long.  Its the correct scale shape for the FW190 and features a 12-blade engine fan (1.73″ diameter) on the back, which fits inside the cowl.  The fan rotates with the prop.

You will need a prop adapter with a shaft length of 15mm (minimum) and 5mm diameter (the spinner can be drilled out to accept a 6mm diameter shaft) and a 3-bladed 8 x 4.5 propeller (standard rotation. The propeller and prop adapter are available separately from Rabid Models.  The model uses a 24-gram 1,700 Kv brushless motor.

The spinner+motor+prop+ESC package is available for your convenience!

Please see the notes below. To install the spinner, first secure the propeller and spinner backplate+fan on the motor shaft using a prop adapter, then the cone simply snaps on – no additional hardware is needed!

The plastic spinner parts are unfinished but can be sanded smooth and can be painted with any plastic-compatible paint.  Click here to see a video from Fun Scale Models that shows how to finish and install 3D-printed spinners.  Painting is recommended because all plastics will deteriorate over time if exposed to sunlight.  Glue is not needed!
