Hi Sigrun, The MP-Jet 1.0cc diesel is a TBR engine and it looks like a miniature Rossi 2.5 diesel.

It is quite a performer. Dick Roberts(Aero Modeler mag), measured 0.21 hp at 17,100 rpm.

I got 17,000 with an APC 7x3 sans muffler. The engine weighs 3.25oz which makes it one

of the heavier 1.0cc diesels, but, ready to fly wing loading is still good. Yes, I'm concerned

with wing loading because I used to fly 1/2A, FAI, and Fast Combat. In the USA, 1/2A

means up to .05 cu" displacement, not 1.49cc as in the UK.

Here's a link to some pics of the glow and diesel versions: http://www.freeflightmodels.com/page..._diesel_en.htm
