and here is a pic of my MVVS .49 engine. Pe Reivers was kind enough to supply me with a new cylinder and piston for it too.

Earl,
You are a true MVVS fan!

Here are some of the mufflers and a few of the smaller engines;

I had a chance to assist in starting the Junior for radio assisted free flight last year. Once dialed in it was a wonderful performer!
BTW, that assistance on a unknown diesel engine gained me immediate respect in our community ;-)

Mr Cox

Yes, the Junior is a lovely engine both powerful and well behaving. Always draws a bit of a crowd at the field when you fly a well throttling diesel.

Engine weight by itself.

Hello guys just hereby Merry Christmas and Happy NY 2013 good health and many happy landings!!!

Here is my question: where can you still aquire a new little diesel enginelike a 2,5 cc I finished a Carl Goldberg Shoestring round flight model that I bought when I was 12 yrs old and finished it last year...I am 56 now!! ( also finished a green box G. Aldrich Nobler aquired when I was 13...have the 5 cc glow from Brodak for it nib. )
Thanks for the info

Mr Cox

They don't make them anymore and I think they have run of their old stock a year or two ago. Best bet is ebay, they turn up there every now and then.

I'm working on a Little Tony that's getting a MVVS .15 (glow) and a tuned pipe, should zipp around quite well I hope.

Unfortunately, you have waited too long, MVVS stopped manufacturing the engines several years ago. But the dealers all begged them to make some more 2.5cc engines and MVVS relented and ran off a batch. But alas, those were sold out too. It is highly unlikely that MVVS will do another production run of the engines this time.
Now then, they engines do pop up on Ebay from time to time, so you can watch there for them. Sometimes they pop up in the RCU for sale forum too.

There may be some other companies still making something. Fora, and maybe some older reproduction models if you don't want to go as fast.

You can always get a Parra 2.5cc engine. it comes in several flavors too, such as control line, or RC. But it also comes in AAC, and ABC too.
It is a pretty high performance engine.  If you aren't looking for super high performance, you can get a Fox .15 engine still. Fox Manufacturing is still in business and sells engines too. They are nice sport engines.

AP and ASP/Magnum, OS , and Fox are all OK, and some diesels are available.
