I have been flying RC and Ultralights for over 25 years. This radial has much better life than the engines I am flying now. The current engine that I have on my plane only has a 250 hour life before overhaul. 500-700 hours would be a big improvement. I have 3 airframes (Weedhopper, Legal Eagle, MiniMax) right now that this engine would work perfectly on. Lighter, better life span and much more reliable than a 2 cycle. I would have no problem installing one tomorrow for flight testing.

@brofun Hi, yes, it can be used on a toy gyrocopter though we do not endorse the use of any model (toy) engine for use in any type of manned vehicle. Model engines are not certified for manned use, and there is no insurance coverage for it.
