TECHING DM122 Mini Turbofan Engine 1:14 Metal Model Kit

Model Overview

The DM122 Mini Metal Turbofan Engine Model Kit is a motor-driven metal turbofan demonstration model with a transparent cover designed for hobbyists who enjoy mechanical detail and hands-on assembly. Presented in 1:14 scale, it recreates the layered look of a turbofan engine with a semi-sectional transparent cover, making the internal structure part of the display.

With over 150 parts, this model kit offers a substantial build and a highly detailed finished result. It represents key engine elements including a first-stage fan, a two-stage low-pressure compressor, a four-stage high-pressure compressor, a first-stage high-pressure turbine, and a two-stage low-pressure turbine. The result is a scale model that combines engineering appeal with visual impact.

Construction Features

The kit is built from precision moulded and CNC-machined metal components, with surface treatment that includes sandblasting and anodised colouring. Assembly is supported by English paper instructions, and the build includes screws, nuts and tools so you can complete the model from individual parts through to the finished engine.

The transparent cover allows you to see the moving internal mechanics once powered, while the magnetic lid makes it easier to open and reassemble the display. This gives the model strong appeal for builders who appreciate both engineering structure and clean presentation.

Display & Collection

Once assembled, the DM122 makes an eye-catching display model for aviation enthusiasts and collectors of engineering subjects. Its compact footprint and layered engine design make it well suited to a desk or display cabinet, where the internal components can be viewed clearly.

If you enjoy hobby kits that combine assembly, movement and technical appearance, this turbofan engine model offers a satisfying balance of build process and finished display value.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of product is this?

This is a metal model kit for a turbofan engine. It is designed to be assembled into a motor-driven turbofan demonstration rather than displayed as a pre-built item. It does not burn jet fuel or generate usable jet thrust.

Is it suitable for STEM learning?

Yes. The kit is well suited to STEM learning because it helps build understanding of aerospace engineering through hands-on assembly and operation.

What can I use the finished model for?

Once assembled, it works well as a display piece and a conversation starter. Its engineering-focused design also makes it suitable for educational use.

What are the finished dimensions?

The assembled model measures 180 mm x 77 mm x 112 mm, making it a compact desktop-sized model.

What colour is the model?

The model combines metallic, blue and red components, giving it a cutaway engineering look that suits both display and educational use.
