Are they still made? nev No. But many engines (like my own childhood engine) hardly got any run time on them before being jammed in the back of a drawer. So quite a few near new ones pop up. They are popular for stunt because there's a certain speed you need to fly, any improvements on power are wasted in this case. There's a few Ruskie and Ukrainian engines around too.
rgmwa Posted July 4 Posted July 4 The OS Max35 was our most common engine in those days. I’ve got an unused OS40FSR still in its box that I bought about ten years ago. 1
red750 Posted July 4 Posted July 4 Two model aero clubs in Melbourne's east that I know of, Knox Model Aero Club on Stud Road, Knoxfield, with three control line circles, and Doncaster Aeromodellers Club on Bulleen Road, Bulleen, with one control line circle and a grass runway for RC models. Both can be searched on Google Maps. 1
