This is the O.S. GT55 Gasoline Engine with Electronic Ignition Unit, Brand New
in Box.
Introducing the first O.S. gas engine-designed especially for R/C!
It is similar in appearance to other O.S. 2-cycle engines, with a large number
of extra-deep and -thin cooling fins on the crankcase and head. A unique 1-piece
crankcase design eliminates gaskets and enhances strength and precision.
A unique front-mounted carb, however, provides several performance benefits.
- Better carburetor cooling, for more consistent engine runs and high performance.
- Requires shorter standoffs, which results in more secure installation (mounting)
and less vibration overall. - Very simple, direct installation of the throttle and choke linkages.
Another major performance benefit is the IG-01 Capacitive Discharge Ignition.
Developed from proprietary O.S. technology, it uses a microcomputer programmed
for optimum spark advance. Magnetic sensors on the crankcase and prop drive
detect ignition timing. The IG-01 also detects and compensates for wet plugs,
ensuring quick starts. Designed to accept a wide range of input voltages, the
IG-01 requires minimal current in standby mode and features a low-voltage warning
(intermittent engine operation).
Features:
- IG-01 Capacitive Discharge Ignition uses a microcomputer programmed for
optimum spark advance through the use of magnetic sensors on the crankcase
and prop drive, the IG-01 also detects and compensates for wet plugs to ensure
consistent quick starts, also requires minimum current in stand-by mode and
features a low voltage warning (intermittent engine operation) - Front mounted carburetor stays cooler for less heat percolation and more
consistent performance, simple and direct throttle and choke linkages - Unique one-piece crankcase eliminates gaskets and enhances strength and
precision - Front induction rotary valve crankshaft design for positive opening and
closing of valve for optimum timing, no oil seal required which eliminates
RPM loss due to additional friction - Massive front and rear crankshaft bearings for longer life and maximum power
output - Thin high-performance piston ring and high-strength aluminum alloy piston
for reduced break-in and high compression from the very first run
