Electric Brushless Motors | Electric RC planes, drones, hobbyists prioritizing quiet operation and ease of use | High torque (10 Nm), lightweight (500g), LiPo 3S battery (11.1V), 85% efficiency | ▲ Silent operation (43 dBA), low maintenance, eco-friendly | Limited runtime (30–45 mins), battery weight impacts performance, requires charging |
2-Stroke Gas Engine (DLE20 Base) | Fixed-wing RC planes, scale models needing sustained power and runtime | 20cc displacement, 2.5 HP, aluminum (ISO 9001), 1.2kg, 70 dB noise, RoHS compliant | ▲ Longer runtime (45 mins on 50ml fuel), customizable, durable | Requires fuel mixing, loud, heavier than electric, higher maintenance costs |
2-Stroke Gas Engine (DLE20 Advanced) | High-performance RC aircraft, competitive racing, advanced customization | 20cc displacement, 3.0 HP (▲ +20% power), 1.0kg (▲ 16% lighter), 65 dB (▲ quieter) | ▲ Enhanced power-to-weight ratio, optimized airflow, alloy components | Higher cost, niche market compatibility, requires expert tuning |
4-Stroke Gas Engines | Scale models, realistic flight simulations, torque-heavy applications | 25cc displacement, 4-stroke cycle, 1.5kg, 60 dB noise, smoother torque delivery | ▲ Realistic engine sound, better fuel efficiency (50 mins runtime), low vibration | Heavier, slower throttle response, complex maintenance |
Nitro-Powered 2-Stroke Engines | High-thrust RC planes, aerobatic models, speed-focused builds | 15cc displacement, 3.5 HP, nitro fuel (methanol + nitromethane), 80 dB noise | ▲ Instant throttle response, high RPM for speed, compact design | Expensive fuel, requires glow plug maintenance, short runtime (10–15 mins) |
Glow Plug 2-Stroke Engines | Vintage RC models, hobbyists preferring traditional setups | 18cc displacement, 2.8 HP, glow plug ignition, 75 dB noise, manual carburetor | ▲ Retro authenticity, simpler design, lower initial cost | Outdated performance, limited customization, higher emissions, noisy |
