Just curious...

Did the first Marauders had the same propeller as the P-61? i was looking at some pics and they look very similar, would be nice to try to model one “early style” Marauder, wouldnt be?[:D]

Hope you guys could help some

Thanks in advance!

My best regards

Hector,

I’m sure someone else could correct me if I’m wrong but I do believe they had the same props. The -A and -B variants of the Black Widow had the narrow chord props as did the B-26 Marauders. I have not looked at any reference materials yet so I’m just trying to go off my memory. I’ll take a look during my lunch hour.

Best wishes,

Eric

They both had Curtiss props, but a quick glance at the specs shows the P-61 was 12’ 2" in diameter and the B-26 was 13’ 6".

Tailspin,

Thanks for the info! I was more familiar with the P-61 than the B-26. Glad you cleared that up.

Hector, you may need to get the after market prop stretcher now. LOL!

Just kidding,

Eric

LOL! thank you fellas, i really appreciate it, some time in the future i will start modeling an early style B-26 so thats why i am looking for reference material regarding all the exterior aspects of such a plane, thanks a lot, i really appreciate it [:)]
