RCU Forums - 54cc four stroke engine

Got sent some information on this engine today, It is a 54cc four stroke engine that are suppose to be hand made. (Not in China)

They are not 3D type engines but are made to turn larger props for warbirds and scale type plane.

Was told they have been in testing for a while, what ever that means. ???

But not cheap, Best I can figure about $970.00

Here is a video of one of them flying some type of aerobatic plane with a 24-12 prop at 4500 RPM. (Dont know what brand prop) Sure sounds good
