RE: 2 cycle engines for F3A
[quote]ORIGINAL: highfly3D Hi, I would like to know what would be the best 2 cycle engines we can use for a F3A plane apart from a Gas engine as i don't prefer them... I know the OS 160 engine is great but not that good for a FAI class. Also my question is if there be engine say 30 to 32cc 2 cycle glow engine will it be a good option for a F3A high class maneuvers if the engine is light weight enough? Thanks, Harry [/quote] in 2 cycle Os 140 re pump and I have one of those for sale with pipe and header on 4 cycle Ys is the best with the Os you can build a plane in the 9 to 10 pound range
