This is one of the O.S. FX Series of High-Performance Engines. This series of
engines are Used in Sport and Aerobatic Aircraft. The FXs are Designed to
Use a Muffler or Tuned Pipe. This is an ABN Ringed Engine.
FEATURES: One-piece crankcase Twin ball bearing-supported
crankshaft Schnuerle porting (AKA Schnuerle scavenging) ABN
construction (Aluminum piston, Nickel plated Brass cylinder) with
alloy cast iron piston ring. Advanced Bi-Metallic Liner. This
process uses a double layer of plating material, rather than one
thicker layer. This helps the metal to bond to the cylinder, and is
more durable. Also, the plating process is more consistent,
resulting in a more precise fit between piston and sleeve. The end
result is better compression and longer life. Side exhaust with
muffler with rotatable exhaust outlet Carburetor with remote needle
mounted on the backplate of the engine (to keep fingers away from
the spinning propeller). Two-year warranty
