I saw this engine for sale recently at a modelers home, and am wondering what size and brand it is? It is a twin-cylinder and has dark red cylinder heads. On the engine itself, there is stamped a logo with the letters "AOH". The "O" has a propeller underneath it. It has a twin carb setup, and also has a very large strange-looking circular backplate -- solid, thick metal. There were no other numbers or markings on it -- I Googled "AOH" but came up with nothing.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Garret H

Failing a photo, a few more details???
Inline or opposed?
Gas or glow?
2 stroke or 4 stroke?
About how big? Palm size, watermelon, grape??
very old looking, or modern looking?
Not much to go on...

I don't have a photo. It is a gas engine. Modern looking -- very much like a Da-100 style. Horizontally opposed -- two-stroke. Cantaloupe sized!

It's an "Air Hobbies". Do a forum search if you are interested in purchasing.

Thank you very much! That is exactly what it is! Kind of funny looking engine, huh?
By the way, the modeler passed away about a year ago -- his wife is trying to sell his stuff, and she doesn't know anything about it!
Thanks for the help,

There is good reason why they are not well known:
