1:48 Bücker Bü 181 - Engine Hirth HM 500B is a 3D printed engine with photo-etched parts in 1:48 scale from CMK — an accessory for Special Hobby kits, not a model of an aircraft.
Responsibility details are not available.
A detail set of an engine in 1:48 scale from the Czech manufacturer CMK, the manufacturer's part number P48058. This is not a model of an aircraft nor a kit — it is a replacement engine as an accessory for a kit of the Bücker Bü 181 trainer. The box states that it is intended for Special Hobby (SPH) kits and that it consists of 3D printed parts and photo-etched sheet. Whether the set fits a particular boxing is not stated here.
The Hirth HM 500 was a four-cylinder air-cooled inline engine with inverted heads, derived in 1938 from the HM 504 and giving roughly 105 horsepower. It was precisely the HM 500B version that powered the Bücker Bü 181 C. The Bü 181 Bestmann was a two-seat low-wing monoplane, a trainer and liaison machine of the Luftwaffe.
Wash the 3D printed parts free of print resin residue before painting, carefully cut off the carriers of the supports, and sand only with your breathing protected. They are glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue), ordinary cement for plastic will not bond them, and a primer coat is mandatory. The engine is a part on show: first think through how you will open the cowling, because a closed fuselage will hide your work. Keep the block in dark gray, distinguish the cylinders with a metallic shade and do the plumbing with a fine brush; a wash will bring out the finning. Bend the etch over a metal edge and glue it with cyanoacrylate glue, not with cement for plastic.
CMK also released a separate set of seats for the same aircraft, the manufacturer's part number P48059. This is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
