Maker sent replacement parts within 5 days.

Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2020

Verified Purchase

When I finished the model and installed the batteries the switch in the base got hot , then smelled burned and the motor never came on. Luckily, I contacted Kory at Makerhaus (email in "Questions Asked" section) and within 5 days the parts - a new base and motor were in the mailbox. A word of advise: Before assembly these models install the batteries in the base and check to see if the motor and LED's work. It will save a lot of time. I had to disassemble most of the model to replace the motor. Other than that everything was fine. It works as advertised.

Good instructional model

Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2020

Verified Purchase

Overall very good - only small modifications were to fill the core prints in the crank with epoxy to make the crank wheels look solid - made thin aluminum sleeves to cover the core prints on the crank main bearings - had to slightly bend the ends of a couple springs to get them to seat accurately in the transmission assembly. Everything works properly. End use for this model will be for basic engine structure and operation in a beginners shop class for high school students run by a car museum. I chose this model over several others because the included transmission actually works as in the real BMW engine assembly. I'm not sure what "sheerness" means in the star ratings, if it means transparency of seeing the working parts, then 5 stars.

Was a gift for a friend. It's expensive but worth every penny. Even the box is classy and well made. A must for a R90s enthusiast.

Arrived a day early. Well packaged. Top quality model and excellent manual. Looks like it will be a great project for some of those long winter days when I’m snowed in, here in the Rocky’s.

Ein Hingucker in der Schrankwand.

Reviewed in Germany on August 7, 2019

Verified Purchase

Da ich schon mit Begeisterung den Vierzylinder-Porschemotor zusammengebaut habe, war es für mich klar, daß ich auch den BMW-Motor bauen werde.
Die Lieferung erfolgte schnell in dem sehr stabilen Originalkarton, der noch mit Verpackungsfolie geschützt war.
Der Zusammenbau des gegenüber dem Original vereinfachten Motors war unproblematisch.
Der Hingucker wird nun von mir um das Modell von Tamiya im Maßstab 1:6 ergänzt, der Bausatz liegt schon ein paar Jahre ungebaut auf dem Dachboden.

Schönes Motormodell - Getriebe mit Tücken

Reviewed in Germany on May 18, 2020

Verified Purchase

Das Wesentliche vorab: Dieses Modell des BMW-Motor-Klassikers ist schön gemacht und ein Blickfang für Technik-Affine. Die Montage macht sehr viel Spass hat allerdings seine Tücken sobald man zum Getriebe kommt. Wahrscheinlich aufgrund eines Produktionsfehlers (evtl. beim Auswerfen nach dem Spritzgiessen) war bei mir eine Aufnahmebuchse für die Schaltstufen-Arrettierung verformt. Deshalb musste ich mit einem kleinen Gasbrenner die Führung vorsichtig anwärmen und in die richtige Position bringen. Danach funktionierte die Schaltstufen-Arrettierung. Nächstes Problem war die ineinandergreifende Verzahnung der beiden Schaltkulissenräder. Schaltet man in den 5. Gang rutscht das kleinere Kulissenrad oft am letzten Zahn aus dem Verzahnungeingriff weil das grössere Kulissenrad kurz zu weit dreht und dann funktioniert das Herunterschalten nicht mehr. Hier fehlt ein mechanischer Endanschlag am grossen Kulissenrad. Lange Rede kurzer Sinn...niemals in den 5. Gang schalten sonst heisst es oft Getriebe zerlegen und Kulissenräder neu ausrichten.

Ottimo articolo

Era da un po di tempo che cercavo un motore in kit da costruire che fosse ben fatto ed anche di una certa dimensione.
In passato avevo comprato un kit Honda 750 Four della Minicraft ed era stata una pessima esperienza, tant'è che non lo ho neanche completato...
Beh, con la Franzis siamo di fronte a ben altro ! Sono contentissimo dell'acquisto: il kit è soddisfacente da ogni punto di vista: come precisione, come estetica... e poi la chicca del cambio a 5 marce funzionante... credo sia l'unico modello statico sul mercato (forse anche rispetto al passato) con cambio funzionante !
e poi è tutto ben riprodotto, lo spinterogeno che fa dare la scintilla al momento giusto...
l'unica cosa a cui stare attenti è di ripulire bene alcune sbavature della plastica che potrebbero interagire col funzionamento corretto del motore...
poi c'è il libro con la storia delle moto Bmw e le istruzioni di montaggio molto buone...
Insomma: prendetelo, montatelo e non ve ne pentirete

Cambio marce funzionante

Reviewed in Italy on November 20, 2020

Verified Purchase

Gran bel modello, con montaggio ampiamente documentato. Unici arnesi richiesti: un cacciavite, un taglierino, una piccola lima piatta (per stondare i peduncoli dello stampo). Incredibilmente ha il cambio meccanico funzionante e...bene! Il Neutral si trova più facilmente che sui modelli veri! Vale fino all'ultimo euro. Non assegno 5 stelle perché avrebbero potuto fare un piccolo sforzo in più e disegnare una guida dello stelo delle valvole, perché, per il resto, è una fedele riproduzione dell'originale ( che possiedo e che ho smontato).
