The Zenoah G62PU engine is a 62cc performance machine. Includes Walbro HDA-48 high-performance carburetor, Champion RCJ-7Y spark plug, and canister muffler. Sold as shown.


Note: This engine was supplied specifically from Zenoah without ignition coil, flywheel, etc, so it could be used in R/C car applications (specifically, the KRD/Skopod conversion kit to allow this engine to fit into an HPI Baja 5b). In current form, this engine is not complete to be used in an R/C airplane.

Who are they trying to kid(gonads):nono::nono::nono: DDM is selling them for $299.00. ok there is a pull start and a few more bits but it dosnt add up to an extra $700.00!!!!!!

Thought they would have a bit more grunt in them though.

Nice iv apart from the annoying fecker at 50 secs.

It can be modified to fit, we will have the KRD/Skopod conversion kits soon.

the 62cc conversions going into the baja are built ported motors that come with a tuned pipe and a modified clutch housing to fit.

they run aroung 1000.00. thats for the motor, the port work and the tuned pipe and the conversion with clutch housing.

imo, its a lot of torsque, but at 15K rpm, its gonna be slow as hell. sure you could gear it to the moon, IF there was gearing available that went that high.

great torque, moderate topspeed. great for a 4x4 hill climber impo, but just hype for anything else imo. for that same 1000. id build a TS Reed 30.5 and have a more usefull motor.

 

[voo2doo]

Good call Tim.
