Description
The Prop Plane from the Lego Technic series is one of the largest models ever, at least considering its enormous wingspan. It’s a hydroplane built from a total of 574 individual parts. The assembly is only moderately fun because the technical functions were kept very simple, at least for its time. There are also only two functions in total. One would expect the propeller to be driven by the engine but, unfortunately, that is not the case. Also, the pistons in the engine only move up and down when the propeller is turned by hand. All in all, the Prop Plane is a beautiful model, even if it is only impressive because of its size, so it still gets four stars in the overall rating.
