Technical data
ADX 500 gasoline engine is intended for UAV and microlight systems and offers excellent power to weight ratio. During its development all the knowledge and experience from previous models and over 30 years of experience were applied and improved. The result is powerfull, low vibration and very durable engine with improved cooling for easier use. Before being shipped from the factory, each engine is tested and pre-adjusted. ON DEMAND it can be fuly factory broken-in.
As a result, there is rarely need for the user to make much in the way of adjustments. In general, they require only some minor carburettor adjustments that take into consideration the propellers and mufflers being used. Optional double spark system brings you more efficiency and great level of redundancy to increase a flying safety in case of subsystem failure. This engine can work even with only one ignition for each cylinder pair and power your system safely back to the ground.
