Fantastic looking models... but the high-pitched, whining engines always turn me off... a Merlin should sound like a Merlin... period!  ;)

A Merlin does always sound like a Merlin, since that model isn't equipped with any...

Not yet anyway. --> http://dynamotive.netfirms.com/merlin/



Sadly probably a little pricey and heavy for a model though. I'd looked at them a few times myself though, sadly the price, and the engineering/machining skills were beyond me. :)

There was a chap in Holland in the early - mid 90s who made some exceptional model engines from scratch, including a V12 and several radials of various cylinder numbers to the highest standards seen. Sadly upon his death he requested they all be destroyed.
