  • Mounts directly into the bolt pattern for the 46AX.
  • Advanced Bimetallic Liner (ABL) uses two alloys to provide a durable layer between the brass liner and piston.
  • Recommended prop sizes: 12x7, 12x8, 13x6, 13x7.
Muffler
The large-chambered muffler reduces sound without reducing power.
 
Carburetor
The 40K carburetor includes a diagonally placed needle valve so there's no need for a remote needle valve.
 
This is the O.S. Max .55 AX ABL Aircraft Engine
with the E3071 Muffler.

 

 

 

FEATURES

Same mounting dimensions as the O.S. Max .46 AXII
Advanced Bi-Metallic Liner process uses a double layer of plating
material rather than one thick layer. This helps the metal bond to
the cylinder and makes the plating more durable. Also, the plating
process is more consistent, resulting in a more precise fit between
piston and sleeve for better compression and longer life.
Angular head design offers increased surface area for better cooling
40K Carburetor with diagonally placed needle valve eliminating remote
needle valve placement
