Please ROTO make a 3-cylinder inline motor for CARF Spitfire. KOLM/Ploberger went nuts and almost tripled their prices so there is a market for a new inline triple around 200-250cc that could be a drop-in replacement for KOLM IL-230. KOLM price is almost 6000€ so there is definitely a room for a competitor.
CC is a measurement of volume, volume of an internal combustion engine is measured of the entire combustion chamber piston included at the proper timing. 125cc is quite possible at that scale!
I was never one to trust the rear mounting of big engines really Shame to me I was brought up to hate on vibration of most all things, especially on wood and glue things, a friend years ago brought down his dle mounted to a cap 21 and when he fired it up I wanted to hit him. I said that thing is a menace to society and your going to regret putting that thing in the air. AND HE DID
this engine is destined to be fitted to my 1/3 scale balsa USA Albatros
Oh yes
Excellent idea with the throttle servo ❤
Sweet baby Jesus, I want one of these. Of course I would have to build an aircraft to install it in, but I am not sure the misses would understand…
Please explain the difference between FS and FSI engine markings in Roto, thank you

Quick Google search on their website showed that they do, a 130cc in line triple
What a lovely baby!
What is the rpm at max power?

Sure that isn't 1.25ci? (20.5cc) That doesn't look even remotely as big as a 50cc engine, let alone 125cc.
125cc
