Unidentified spanish project from 1929.

Yes, an Hispano-Suiza 12Hb is shown (as in the Loring R-III).

But, I believe, Toryu was referring to this test rig's lengthy extension shaft transmitting power to the propeller.

I'm doing my personal interpretation. It still needs to mature, but I think the general lines are already taking shape.

I don't have a shipbucket account, also when making my drawings I don't fully follow their rules. Where if I upload them, it's to my Devianart account.

I wonder if the configuration in the photo is of an engineless wind tunnel model to examine lift and drag of the configuration, with engine configurations to be added and experimented with later.

... but adding windows to a wind tunnel model would be quite unusual, wouldn't it ?

As well as painting the whole model in light color.
Wind-tunnel models mostly were wooden, with very smooth polished surface
I should also admit strange elongated hatches on the fuselage sides, below and aft to the wing. Not a common feature for the large aircraft.
Perhaps, wind tunnel model has been rapidly adopted to the show' exhibit?

Perhaps, for this particular model eginges nacelles haven't been mounted in order to "hide" one of the project adanced features - propellers on the extended shafts? Without the nacelles it's possible, that most exhibition visitors would think, that engine/propeller configuration is classic - pulling propellers and engines on the leading edge. Just an educted guess, no more :cool:
