Mine arrived Saturday, but I've been too busy to open up the box. I think I'll do that right NOW!! <G>

If it is anything like its predecessors, I'm sure that you will love it.

I forgot about the .35-4C. You might be right. But it does resemble the .40 that has been on eBay the last few days.

I now own a Enya 155R. The engine has a damage intake manifold and the needle valve has been destroyed. I also need the valve tubes. Can anyone tell me where the best chance of finding these parts are located? I believe MRC has closed the options of parts for these engines. The parts off a 120 Enya will work too.

CustomPC

http://www.enya-engine.com is your best bet.

Send them an email and Mr Enya himself will answer it very quickly.

The 155 is still in production so parts should be available. He ships all over the world for reasonable rates and is very fast.

Thank you Gentlemen. Considering I have never owned a 155R, will the engine perform well with a 16/8 propeller in an 18lb. Mustang?

I 'd like to know the weight of an Enya 80X

Thank you,

Martin
1 Enya 09IV, 1 Enya 15II, 3 Enya 19V, 2 Enya 35 5224, 7 Enya 45 6001&6002, 1 Enya SS50, 1 Enya 53-4C and 1 Enya 61CX

Enya 80X is 20.1 ounces with muffler. That's from an engine report in a magazine, my son has one so it's not handy for me to weigh it. He's also got my 60X so I hope I see it again someday .

hello, I have a 80-4c Enya engine new. i have runing now, this engine has a incredible scale sound. Much more than all the others that I have listened.! Excelent for scale model i think. for any warbird !
I want to know how to choose an airplane model size.

which engine 2T is equivalent to this 80-4C ?

this engine model 80-4c is more near of ( similar to ) .91 4T or .70 4T.

I need choise a model size but wich ?

for example in P51 Top Flite exist:

* P51 .40 2T or
* P51 .60 2T

or Spit or Corsair

That is an excellent question. Truthfully, I would be tempted to put it in the .40 size P-40.

While I'm sure it will fly the .60 size P-40, it will be "iffy" on power.

The Enya 80-4C is actually a .74 (bored out 60-4C). When thought of in this sense, it makes sense that a .40 two-stroke powered model, that is powered by a .60 sized four-stroke engine, would received a bit of a bonus in power when utilizing the 80-4C (that is really a .74).

While I'm sure that it would fly a .60 two-stroke sized Cub, or other lightly wingloaded high wing model, it would be at a disadvantage in a .60 sized warbird, as would a Saito .82 or OS/Magnum 70 four-stroke.

I've got an old (1976) enya .40 that's missing a idle bleed screw, and thanks to this thread, now know where to go look for parts. Thanks!

I've also got an Enya .41 4-stroke, NIB. Any of you have info on good prop sizes for a fun-fly type plane? Not looking for speed, but low pitch thrust. I'm thinking of using it on a Sig Fazer kit that's about done.

How's the .41 as an engine? I don't see them very often either in the classifieds here at RCU, or on ebay..

hi, ask: for 80-4C the propeller 13x8 is big for this engine ? or normal ?

because in full trottle is very he is very unstable. ( there is no difference when I open or I close needle valve 2-3 turns with trottle full.. )

The engine is new. (only 2 galon)

Can i use 12x6 prop or is very small ?

NM2K

My Feedback: (14)

The 13x8 is bigger than what you want for optimum performance. The 13x6 is perfect. Consider this engine a strong .60 and you will have better results.

In pursuing the new parts, not to change the subject gentlemen, New Enya 4 strokes can still be purchased from Japan. Service was good. I took the liberty to find out what the new 155R cost and I as astounded the Japanese want 58,800 yen or translated to USD $493.00 for the engine. I was just wondering if I am making any mistakes here. Does anyone out there recently purchased one of these engines and what was actually paid for it. Does anyone have any verification of this cause that is one expensive engine.

I have finally become a Club ENYA member. I have never owned an ENYA engine before, but have seen and appreciated many.

As I sit I am looking at a "ENYA 29-IV Special TV" ... given to me (totally unexpectedly) by an very elderly gent who used to fly long, long ago. On the side where the intake passage is a bulbous swelling on the cylinder it says "ENYA 29 model 5224".

It is crossflow scavenged, with baffle piston, and despite having been run is in nearly perfect condition. It has been mounted but holes are not enlarged and is unmarked. It comes with a low compression (7.5:1) and high compression ( 9.5:1) heads, a nice, rotund looking "strap-on" ENYA muffler with a pivoting flap opposite exhaust entry, presumably for exhaust priming (those were the days) and the weirdest looking pressure nipple I have ever seen (it is chrome with two "fins" presumably to offer purchase as there is no hex at the base? ... how would tubing seal over it?) and a very nice square machined from solid aluminium air-bleed carb, which sits in a square boss. The crankcase has no removable back-plate (?), but has a removable front housing. The front housing has underneath it a boss and removable cheese head brass screw .. presumably a pressure take off point if desired? All parts are finely made, metallurgy appears top drawer and the casting is the among the best I have ever seen. Standard slot head or phillips head screws are used. Yellow and Red Box and instruction leaflet are included and are in good condition.

I have to say - I can't wait to soak it in methanol for a few days to free it up (it is gummed up with castor). The piston appears unmarked and I am sure compression will be good. It has twin ball races. It has come with a nice hand carved beautifully lacquered and balanced 10x4 prop, and an old grey Taipan "deep cuff" 10 x 6 prop. A 10 x 5 prop is recomended for running in. I has an unmarked red made in Japan "Ishipla" spinner with a nose cone that screws on ... and would immediately unscrew if an electric starter was used

The plug in the engine seems to be a standard taipan, but the filament is very grey, and I am thinking of replacing it with a new good idle bar plug before attempting strart up, as I recall these work well in crossflow scavenged / air bleed carb set ups. I still have one or two of those ...

Any tips? I would hazard a guess and say the engine is from the early to mid '70's, any views on that? I will use a fuel mix of 20% castor, 80% methanol, and may flirt with 10% klotz techniplate, 10% castor, 10% nitro and balance methanol later on ...

I feel I will be proud to say I own an ENYA engine, and plan to put it on a 20 size trainer for club instructional duty. Any recommendations for a suitable ARF trainer?

Those were first made in 1965 (there's also a 35BB version) and I have a marine 29BB Special although I've never run it (it's second hand and was given to me). The 29's were timed different to the 35's and intended more for speed events in CL like team racing and class B speed.
(Off to check a data sheet I've got)
Max HP of the RC version is .55HP with a rev range of 2,000-13,000 while the CL version was .85HP and a rev range of 10,000-18,000. The CL version came with 3 venturis, small, medium and enormous. The big venturi needed crankcase pressure which was where that brass screw came into it. I don't recall any baffled piston Enya using a backplate.

Be nice to it and use all castor fuel at 25% and it'll outlive anything else around. The piston and liner materials used are legendary but need a great deal of running in time.

whats the deal with the enya 80 , would this be as powerfull as a .90 ?

NM2K

My Feedback: (14)

It depends upon which Enya .80 you are talking about. <G>

The Enya 80-4C four-stroke actually displaces .74 cubic inches and is not really an .80. Expecting a .74 to produce the power of a .90 is a bit much. The old addage, "there is no substitute for cubic inches" comes into play. It is reasonably powerful for a .74.

The other Enya .80 is a two-stroke. I haven't done the math on that ones displacement as yet, so it might actually be an .80, but I would not expect that to produce the power of a .90 two-stroke either.

The 80X 2 stroke is a .77 (12.6cc) and is a bored out 60X. Strangely, it's got the same stroke as the 60X but the crank timings are completely different.
