What the ??? - 13 cc gas

It almost looks like this motor would fit on a 1/8

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

Very interesting..... Anyone have more info? it looks cute.

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

yeah, looks like it could fit on a Savage or something like that!!!
could be fun...
btw, i see you're in Edmonton... Do you have any good spots around here that i might not know about??? what cars / trucks do you run???

thanks for the info !!

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

Still a bit large for a 1/8 13cc is roughly .80cui you could certainly squeze one in with some heavy modding. I am glad to see smaller gas motors coming out. I believe Compagnucci has the smallest, but it needs some refinement from what I have read.

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

That would be perfect for some projects - like those of us still undecided [&:]

I really hope the truck picture is an artist's rendering, because it looks lousy.

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

Yeah that truck is atrocious.

That fancy crawler "thing" of yours might like that engine Reiko [&:]

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

I like the body shape of that truck... but true enough, the color is uglyious...:D
i'm not sure the exhaust pipes behind the cab will survive the first landing... it could be cool to have these 2 pipes as the actual exhaust pipes :) just imagine the smoke coming out of these 2 pipes with that truck flying by at 30mph !!![&:]

big kids, big toys..

Heres some more info!

i noticed that yesterday too, looks awesome.but i think Reiko's truck deserves more than that lousy looking motor. Be honest guys, that motor doesnt look too good :D How big is the campagnucci's engine?

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

ohh, and did anyone else notice that on the smartech website, the pictures of that ugly kid's truck include a nitro engine in them, so..?

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

Well its no doubt going to be rather weak, but its a fun and convenient idea. Reikos pet truck needs a $4000 brushless setup :P

Smartechs spec says .5kW, less than 1HP if accurate.

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

wow, thats nothing, maybe it could be pretty strong with some mods.

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

Yeah, for a given displacement nitro engines are far more powerful than gasoline engines, much more potential energy in the fuel. Still, as a novelty it could be fun, It's surely strong enough for a small car or truck and is way cheaper to run.

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

a 20cc zen is making around 5.2hp fully modded.

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

Anyone know what the dimensions are of the engine?I wonder if it could fir on a extended tvp mid tanked savage like mine?

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

yeah and those companuggi motors are damn expensive and the italians dont sell beyond certain countries and definatley not australia i dont think , But this is definatley what the RC world in the year 2008 and beyond should be making from now on , out the window with nitro and in with 1/8th scale trucks with engines like these , i love my savage x 4.6 but nitro has lost my interest for a long time now , if rc cars and trucks started producing alot of affordable cars and trucks with motors like these in them there would be an instantaneous popularity explosion

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

12000RPM
That's not good for much...maybe a crawler.

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

pretty much guranteed to make above 16,000 fully modded with a pipe. the 20cc only makes 9-10,000 stock and makes about 19,500 I believe it is. I would guess about 4.0hp fully modded with a pipe and more torque than a nitro.

If you want to put a gas engine in a Savage check this site out

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

hey thats freaking unreal man those savage conversions are the best gas trucks ive ever seen full stop . they a million times better looking than those FG'S and smartech titans . how much does he want for a RTR one of those , and they look like 2 speed from the pics

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

Really? I think that they look stupid, and out of proportion to the engine.

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

HAHA those things are like $1500 RTR.. had a friend buy one run it once and sold it quick:D:D Engine sits to far back........order it ....jump it..dump it:)

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

Compagnucci's are 6.28cc's and pretty lack luster in performance....they are more of a novelty item

RE: What the ??? - 13 cc gas
 

nah man i dont know why your mate didnt like it and got rid of it ? i really like the look of them , they a pretty clean conversion looks strong enough although the nitro pipe maybe doesnt suit the power of the engine , still i would rather swap him my brand new savage x 4.6 for one of his creations and then pay him the differance
