Revolutionizing RC Flight with the O.S. Engine GT55

The O.S. Engine GT55 Gas Engine, identified by its model number OSMG1555, stands as a testament to innovation in the world of RC aviation. Designed specifically for RC aircraft, this engine combines cutting-edge technology with robust construction, making it an essential choice for advanced hobbyists and competitive flyers alike.

Innovative Design Meets Advanced Engineering

The GT55 is not just another gas engine; it brings a host of unique features that set it apart. The engine's design includes a large number of extra-deep and thin cooling fins on both the crankcase and head, ensuring efficient heat dissipation even during prolonged flight sessions. Its one-piece crankcase design eliminates the need for gaskets, enhancing structural integrity and precision.

Performance-Driven Features

One of the standout features of the GT55 is its front-mounted carburetor. This design choice not only aids in better carburetor cooling but also ensures more consistent engine performance. The shorter standoffs result in a more secure installation, reducing vibration and improving overall stability. The direct installation of throttle and choke linkages further simplifies setup, making it user-friendly.

State-of-the-Art Ignition System

The IG-01 Capacitive Discharge Ignition system is a highlight of the GT55. Developed from proprietary O.S. technology, it uses a microcomputer for optimal spark advance. This system incorporates magnetic sensors that detect ignition timing, ensuring reliable starts and smooth operation. Additionally, the IG-01 compensates for wet plugs, offering quick starts and minimal current draw in standby mode.

Specifications

  • Displacement: 3.352 cu in (54.93 cc)
  • Bore: 1.62 in (41.2 mm)
  • Stroke: 1.62 in (41.2 mm)
  • Practical RPM: 1,500-8,000
