New light aircraft engine

From Italy comes the ICP M09.

80hp

Based on a motorcycle V-twin of 1225cc.

It's a bolt on package with everything included - just bolt onto your engine mount and connect up the electric and fuel lines.

Priced between 12 and 13 K euros.

It will be formally released at Aero Friedrichshafen in April.

I note that it's installed weight is 5 kg heavier than the UL260iSA and it produces 27 less hp.

It's not for me but it may work well in a Twister for someone on a budget.

  1. My money would go on the D-Motor, with quite a weight saving too.
