Current Production Updates

  • With successful testing of the V12 Engine in a 1/5 scale model plane, we have decided to begin manufacture of a version for this 1/5 scale size, therefore out of our first 10 engines we have allocated the first 5 as 1/5 scale.

    The differences between the 1/5 and ¼ scale engines are: suitable gear box ratios to match the different propellor size, different exhaust systems, a more compact carburettor for 1/5 scale cowling, and more output power for the ¼ scale.

    Regarding the ¼ scale aircraft, we are currently assembling a ¼ scale P-51 Mustang with a fibre glass fuselage, we anticipate testing to be complete by around the end of 2024. Once we have finalised the upgrades to the engine for ¼ scale installation, we will release the engine for commercial sale, we anticipate approximately March-June 2025.
