- Guido Fantini offers a detailed look at the MWFly four-cylinder aero engines being shown at Sun 'n Fun 2024. Available in two displacements (2.3 and 2.6 liters) and with or without a prop-speed reduction unit (PSRU). This two-valve-per-cylinder isn't based on any automotive design, but has been purpose built for aircraft in Northern Italy. It also features liquid cooling and redundant ECUs for the fuel injection and ignition. The gearbox, when fitted, has its own oil supply and can be fitted with an electronic valve to permit the use of a hydraulic constant-speed prop. The non-turbo version weighs less than 200 pounds with a gear reduction drive.

I am following this company for few years. Believe is a great solution. They are selling aeronautical specific engines since 2011 with more than 300 engines sold ! The great range of options from 100HP to 240HP (Turbo) practically allow the installation on most kits! What you guys know about this engine ?
It is actually becoming the standard powerplant for the aircraft MXP 1000 Tayrona: ruclips.net/video/V3MYyiNtXyw/видео.html
Horsepower figures start at 6:23. Prices at 8:41.
Looks to be a very well thought out design. 2 hp per Cubic inch is incredible. Water cooled and 4 main bearings. Those Italians love their fast engines. Great price too.
Yes they do!
That's Right... That is the reason why it is actually becoming the standard powerplant for the aircraft MXP 1000 Tayrona: ruclips.net/video/V3MYyiNtXyw/видео.html
Interesting engine, would like to see one actually on a dyno bench with all the data. One in an aircraft woukd be nice also.

I was watching a 1950's movie and it was about an aircraft mechanic smuggling counterfeit bills. The engine in the movie was a 6 cylinder air cooled that looked exactly like the engines we use 75 years later. In 1950, flathead Fords were the hot setup, look how far car engines have progressed.
This is a quite though💪 and realiable engine!. That is why it is actually becoming the standard powerplant for the aircraft MXP 1000 Tayrona: ruclips.net/video/V3MYyiNtXyw/видео.html
Tons of power 🚀
0.34 lb/hp/hr?
Website says 212g/kw for the 118kw engine at max power.
@@chippyjohn1 That's 0.348, which is seriously impressive. For the 140 hp Skyline version, they claim 31.3 lb/hr at 65% power, so that's 0.344 lb/hp/hr. A third party needs to verify these numbers, they're awesome.
@PistonAvatarGuy I only understand standard measurement. 200-225g/kw is pretty easy to achieve these days. About the same as a diesel.
@@chippyjohn1 That's what I keep telling people, they keep telling me that I'm crazy.
0.344 lb/hp/hr is 209 g/kWh.
