Default 3D engine for 1/200 Saturn V????

Has anyone done a 3D design of the F-1 engine used on the 1/200 Saturn V?
I fly mine with the engines and would like to be able to print spares.
Thanks .

Not quite the same scale but you can resize it to fit https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3192548

Thanks, Scott, I hadn't thought about this. I'll give it a try.

Well, I decided to try and design a solution to my own request and this is what I came up with.
The engines are a tad longer to allow them to fit inside the clear fin unit without any modification to the fin can. They are fiction fit. If I should lose one in flight or landing I can print a replacement. I have a few extra ones now.

Now I'm working on a Skylab unit to pair up with the 1/200 scale Saturn V bottom half.

Those look great, it must look much better flying with engines!

Thanks, PaulK. I have designed two versions of the engines.
One version with the rings going halfway up the engine and the other version is like the ESTES style engine with the rings going all the way up the engine.

I launched my Saturn twice yesterday and had no problems with the engines staying on.
For me, a Saturn V looks incomplete if it doesn't have those engines attached.

The files for the engines can be found here. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6286672
