Verner Radial search engines
A last perusing of the ultralight area at EAA Airventure exposed a hidden gem and a harkening back to the old days of airplanes Sam Watrous, The american distributor for Verner Engines had two units on display. A three cylinder and a five cylinder style of the Czech product.
Upon inspection these little engines are well built and ready for action. Sam said he discovered Verner engines while searching for a suitable power plant for his sister company, Scalebirds, Which builds WWII fighter styled reduced scale experimental aircraft. Upon talking Sam needs Verner suggested he become a dealer and he agreed.
When asked why he chose Verner over others Sam indicated the Verner was better suited to the size of his airframes <a href=https://datingspanishwomen.travel.blog/2019/06/13/where-and-how-to-find-beautiful-spanish-women/>hot spanish women</a> and was less pricey than other similar output mills. Sam said the Verner product line fits the requirements of his airframe project better than other engines he considered, Including Rotax and VW based promotions, because they are more realistic and the radial planform integrates well into the airframes which were originally intended for radial engines. His first airplane of the fishing line will be an F6 F hellcat, A perfect aspirant for a radial engine.
The product line includes a three cylinder, Two displacements of five cylinders and a seven cylinder choices ranging from 42hp to 137hp. Scalebirds will offer repair and overhaul services for Verner Engines, Expecting to be the only US service center. The engines includes a 1 year/100 hour factory warranty. Technical aspects of the engine include digital ignition on all units, Carbureted induction on the 3 cyndrical tube and small 5 cyndrical tube (the bigger engines use fuel injection), Dry sump pressure lube. All engines include and integral pancake alternator creating 15 20 amps.
When inquired about the unusually low power to weight ratio (dealing with 1:2, where many radials are around 1:1) Sam indicated that the engines are only designed for 7.5 to 1 compression setting ratio. this should result in very long durability and rugged reliability, And there is possible room for improvement by determined owners. Sam stated that Verner has no intentions in testing the engine to LSA preferences and is content playing in the experimental <a href=https://datingspanishwomen.travel.blog/2019/06/13/where-and-how-to-find-beautiful-spanish-women/>pretty spanish girls</a> amateur built arena. they make that beautiful pitter patter and throaty roar only a round engine can.
