The Aero-Stirling: Where Thermodynamics Meets Aviation.
Witness the elegant conversion of heat into motion with the Aero-Stirling Propeller Engine. This precision-engineered model is a tribute to early aviation and the brilliant physics of the Stirling cycle. Unlike traditional motors, this engine operates on the expansion and compression of air, turning a simple flame into a high-speed propeller rotation.
Crafted with a heavy-duty metallic airframe and high-temperature resistant glass, the Aero-Stirling is designed for both performance and visual clarity. Watch through the transparent cylinders as the pistons move in perfect synchronization, driving the front-mounted propeller to life. It is a striking, educational masterpiece that serves as the perfect centerpiece for a scientist's desk or an engineer's workshop.

The "JJ Nate" Safety & Care Note
To achieve the highest speeds, we recommend using 95% grade alcohol in the burner. Because this engine uses an open flame and generates heat, it is intended for adult collectors and supervised educational use. Always allow the engine to cool completely before handling after a run.
