  2. Model engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_engine

    Four-stroke model engines have been made in sizes as small as 0.20 in3 (3.3 cc) for the smallest single-cylinder models, all the way up to 3.05 in3 (50 cc) for the largest size for single-cylinder units, with twin- and multi-cylinder engines on the market being as small as 10 cc for opposed-cylinder twins, while going somewhat larger in size ...

  3. Radio-controlled car - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_car

    Radio-controlled cars, or RC cars for short, [1] are miniature vehicles (cars, vans, buses, buggies, etc.) controlled via radio.. Nitro powered models use glow plug engines, small internal combustion engines fuelled by a special mixture of nitromethane, methanol, and oil (in most cases a blend of castor oil and synthetic oil).

  4. Glow plug (model engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_plug_(model_engine)

    A glow plug engine, or glow engine, is a type of small internal combustion engine [1] typically used in model aircraft, model cars and similar applications. The ignition is accomplished by a combination of heating from compression, heating from a glow plug and the catalytic effect of the platinum within the glow plug on the methanol within the ...

  5. Cox model engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_model_engine

    The engine was designed for the 1/2A Texaco RC duration competition. The engine has an additional fin on the larger glow plug which dissipates heat better allowing the engine to swing a larger propeller. i.e. 7 or 8 inches. This engine has a red 8cc fuel tank and a black crankcase. Original 1989 engines did not come out with 5 fin glow plug.

  6. Nitro engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitro_engine

    A nitro engine generally refers to an engine powered with a fuel that contains some portion (usually between 10% and 40%) of nitromethane mixed with methanol.Nitromethane is a highly combustible substance that is generally only used in very specifically designed engines found in Top Fuel drag racing and in miniature internal combustion engines in radio control, control line and free flight ...

  7. Glow fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_fuel

    Glow fuel is a fuel source used in model engines – generally the same or similar fuels can be used in model airplanes, helicopters, cars and boats. [1] Glow fuel can be burned by very simple two-stroke engines or by more complicated four-stroke engines, and these engines can provide impressive amounts of power for their very small size.

  8. Model engine classes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_engine_classes

    In the world of model aircraft there are several competition classes to signify engine displacement. Class Cubic Inches Cubic Centimeters 1/2A: 0.000 - 0.050

  9. Radial engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_engine

    Radial engine in a biplane. The radial engine is a reciprocating type internal combustion engine configuration in which the cylinders "radiate" outward from a central crankcase like the spokes of a wheel. It resembles a stylized star when viewed from the front, and is called a "star engine" in some other languages.
