Default RE: Does anyone else love Enya engines?

G'day

Me too. My collection has grown over the last couple of years.

Most recent acquisition is one of the new Enya 36 4c Al/Ch four strokes. What a sweet running engine. Nice power, very reliable and just a nice engine to fly. It is in a Kadet LT-25 and suits it perfectly.

I have also recently built a Stick from a plan and I put my 53 four stroke in it. I have had to put a three bladed 11 x 7 prop on it and with this it really flies the model well. My other Stick - a Great Planes Big Stick - has an Enya 45SSBB and really hauls it round well.

I also have a 45CX which I bought off a certain auction site quite cheaply. It has surprised me at what a good engine it has and really hauls the Sig Somethin' Extra it is mounted in.

I could go on but that's enough for the moment.

The Enya 40 and 45 CX AAC engines are my favorite midsize engines. That's not to say that there aren't other really good midsized engines, but the AAC piston/liner of the Enya 40 & 45 CX engines give them a distinctive edge that is not so easy to explain to non engine enthusiast/types of modelers.
