Default Engine CC vs .## (Help)

Hi,

Can someone please tell me how to convert the .## to CC in engines ?

Example, I have a ASP .61 2 Stroke, what is the CC of this engine, and how do you get the cc value of other sizes

I have a kind of a shedule, from a magazine:

.10 = 1.76 cm³
.11 = 1.79 cm³
.15 = 2.48 cm³
.21 = 3.50 cm³
.25 = 4.07 cm³
.34 = 5.50 cm³
.40 = 6.46 cm³
.45 = 7.50 cm³
.51 = 8.30 cm³
.61 = 9.95 cm³
.75 = 12.21 cm³
.90 = 14.73 cm³

And does someone has/had experience with an ASP engine?

Thanx,

from what i could find out so far, teh ASP engines are very good, and are made in the same factory as OS engins...

I have not flown yet, and don't have any experience yet, but I have not been able to find a bad word about ASP engins...

I also would like mor einput about them from experienced people....

thanx again for the conversion list

I believe Magnum, ASP, SC, and SY, are all made in the same plant, SanYe, in Shenzhen China. I've seen comments about their designs being clones of OS engines, but I had not heard that OS was now being made by SanYe.

Here is another way to convert cubic inches to cubic centimeters: Go to www.google.com and type:

convert 0.61 cu in to cc

The answer comes back as:

0.61 (cu in) = 9.99610904 cc

What you need is this little program from http://joshmadison.net/software/convert/
This will let you convert just about anything to anything else. For instance, want to know how many inches in a light year? Or how many UK gallons to a US gallon? It doesn't convert shoe sizes though.

Google? A partial list of dimentional conversions? Why not just tell the guy to multiply cubic inches by 16.387 to get cubic centimeters for ANY volume? It ain't rocket science, people.

A conversion taught in school and worth remembering the rest of your life is 1 inch equals 25.4 milimeters(2.54 centimeters), exactly. With this you can convert any linear dimension, such as miles to kilometers, feet to meters, cubic inches to cubic centimeters. The conversion Dr1Drive gave, 16.387, is arrived at by muliplying 2.54 X 2.54 X 2.54 to give the number of cubic centimeters in a cubic inch.

Villa, I gave him exactly what he was looking for - a conversion factor from cubic centimeters to cubic inches. He wasn't interested in linear conversions.

Thanks people,

I got what i was looking for...

I see i actually asked the wrong question, I should have asked what the .61 stands for, then i would have know how to convert it...

i thaught it was some kind of size just relevent to these coowl lil engines... didn't know it was cubic inches....

thanks all...


yup i'm a beginner,
