Engines and cluches

[Mike1970]

I was wondering (just bored at work thats all) Aside from FG do all the Hpi, MDC,Redcat and alike come with the same type of engine and the clutch or copies of each other. Is the fuelieeeee engine a copy of the zenoha and CY?

Im sure the fuelieeeeee is a CY!!!!

Correct fuelie is a chung yang (made in japan)

MCD give you the option of what engine you want, cy or Zen, HPI is all CY

Zenoah is a Japanese Company, but their engines are not neccessarily made in Japan. They are made in more than one country in Asia, most likely, not Japan. Just like Japanese Cars, and components. Many cars made in USA, and components all over the world. With the Japanese names, everyone thinks they are made in Japan….not so.
Chung Yang is a Taiwanese company. The Chung Yang RC and Scooter engines, at this time are all made under one roof in Taiwan.

Sadly not, I work for a machine hire company repairing anything from a drill to a mini digger. The work itself (when I'm left to get on with it) is great as I'm a tinkerer but the firm and some of the staff .......

Sounds like a decent job and enjoying it makes it even better

"Word I got from the US Sales rep for Zen is CY is a clone yet technically not.. The designer of the Zen moved over to China and made the engine under the CY name.. So the debate should be who really owns the rights to the design (IMHO)

HPI buy a CY engine from CY and re-badge them with the Fuelie name. Marketing wise it is great because some stores will only carry Fuelie parts."

I thought it was komatsu zenoah

 

[dwarfy]

Komatsu and Zenoah are part of Husqvarna Group so you are both right

 

[Mike1970]
