This is the OS Engines 46AX .46 ABL glow engine, with 40G carburetor and included OS E3070 Muffler.  As the replacement for the high-performance 46FX, it's no wonder that the .46 AX shares many of its features. The raw power. A remote needle valve. Mounting bolt patterns. A balanced "D"-cut crankshaft supported by dual bearings. CNC-machining for the piston and other parts. And the same exclusive ABL cylinder liner that has made FX reliability a byword. But all the same, the 46AX is a different – and better – engine. Why? Because times change and technology advances. And because O.S. uses the best of both to make a good engine a better engine.

Features:
  • Features the 46FX's durable ABL (Advanced Bimetallic Liner) plating, as well as a new design that automatically centers, levels and seats the head during re-replacement. Head snugs down with only four screws – not six.
  • Subtly tapered low-end needle eliminates surging at transition, ensuring exceptionally smooth, consistent throttle control from idle to top speed.
  • Redesigned liner ports and a ball-milled inlet port minimize turbulence during fuel/air mixing, making combustion and power output more predictable.
  • New high-speed needle bracket simplifies horizontal/vertical mounting – and can be replaced in just minutes.
  • Minimizes vibration-induced "creep" and re-sets with a ratchet spring on the high-speed needle and O-ring seals on both needles. A simple rotor guide screw replaces the throttle stop screw – and eliminates spring-related movement.
  • Includes a new low-noise E-3070 muffler and 2-year limited warranty protection.
  • Includes a lock nut and longer crankshaft with more thread length, for better prop nut engagement and greater pilot safety.

SPECIFICATIONS:
  • Displacement: 0.455 cu in (7.5 cc)

  • Includes: #A3 glow plug, E-3010 muffler
  • Requires: glow fuel, prop

This another badass engine from OS. Ran this motor on my Phoenix Model Funstar when I first started flying low wing airplanes and talk about ultra reliable, typical OS quality. Set it, forget it and just have a blast in the air. It has survived two crashes and still going strong! Just clean it up and now waiting for my son to start flying nitro planes and when time is right this will be his engine to blast the air waves with.
