RCG 15cc Gas engine ....sizes??

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

I am currently thinking of getting this engine 
RCG 15cc Gas engine w/ CD-Ignition 2.1HP/1.54kw 

but there are very little supplied info about the different sizes of the engine. First; what is the minimum lenght of the mounts that it can have? (in one picture it shows something that looks like stand off mounts, but hard to tell for sure as it's not actuallt stated.) Second: other sizes, like total lenght, height and width?
For fun, I am thinking of buying the 1600mm bf-109 sold here, the motor shows up as a part of the combo for it, but does anyone know that it actually fits?

	20cc gas engine would be a better choice for that Bf-109, you don't want a slow warbird.
	A minimal technical knowledge is required for this hobby; please ensure you know the differences between up and down.

	I tell you my story on the RCG 15 CC petrol engine: I bought a HOBBY KING brand gasoline engine 15cc RCG May 2011.Après the avir tried using a mixture gas oil quality on a bench with a friend expert petrol engine, we found: - Difficult start, vibration, overheating and abnormal after 2 to 3 minutes maximum running crash. My friend expert found that this engine had an original default and advised me to return it to service warranty HOBBY KING in Shenzhen. This is what I did because I could not keep the engine failed and I returned May 6, 2011. Since then, I'm still waiting for a definitive answer HOBBY KING who asks me every time I write e-mail or live chat on the wait ... The engine is returned to the supplier and HOBBY KING awaiting a response from this supplier. ... I am exasperated by the delay and asked HOBBY KING to make a gesture of goodwill and to refund the amount of this engine is 189 dollars by converting it to have on my account with them. I think that c is a logical arrangement !!... that to date, 11 November 2011 more than five months later I am still waiting a regulation along the lines of my proposal to HOBBY KING ... In conclusion I do not recommend buying this brand of motor RCG, look more towards the brand or DLE ZENOAH more reliable and better!Thanks for your comment. ..
