Introducing the HKS, ultralight aircraft engine
|
|
|
|
The HKS-700E is
a 60hp, horizontally opposed, two cylinder, four stroke engine. The 700E
uses a combination of high technology and simplicity to achieve the twin
goals of high power output and reliability. Every major component on the
700E has been designed and tested for light aircraft use. The 700E
engine employs modern features such as a multi valve, oil-cooled head
design, nickel ceramic coated cylinders and dual electronic ignition.
The valve train is operated by a single cam with cylinder encased
pushrods.
Valve lash is maintained hydraulically. Torsional vibration is
controlled with the use of a large diameter flywheel between the crank
and the integral gearbox. A dry sump lubrication system is utilized,
allowing both tractor and pusher aircraft installations. |
| To ensure
consistent performance and conformity, each HKS-700E will
come fully broken-in and dyno-tested at the factory for 1
1/2 hours. In development for over three years, HKS has created the
engine that OEMs, flight schools and pilots have been waiting for! |
