Just Finished Building a 1:10 Twin-Spool Turbofan Engine – What a Beast!

Hey folks,
I finally got my hands on the TECHING DM119 Twin-Spool Turbofan Engine model kit and spent the last few days putting it together. 

This thing is a real engineering marvel – over 1000+ metal parts, working fan blades, gearbox, and you can actually see the spools spin when powered up. The assembly was challenging but super satisfying, almost like working on the real thing in miniature.

What impressed me most is the detail of the core engine. You can really learn how air goes through the fan, compressor, combustion, and turbine stages. For anyone into aviation models or just mechanical builds, this is one of the coolest kits I’ve ever tried.

Here is the picture:

Curious – has anyone here built other engine models (jet or piston)? Would love to see your projects too!

This is the video I took. You can hear that the sound effect is very realistic, and the overall texture is also good.

Thanks. It must be cool, it took me ten hours to assemble.

Thanks. This is the first time I spent so much time assembling a model.

That's great! This is the first time I have seen a model with such realistic sound effects.
