Here we have a very nice chech teamracer from 1954.It was designd by Josef Pfeffer,one of the biggest names in the chech model engine world.He makle a lot very nice and interresting engines,but in smal numbers.Exeptions and the most known are the smal diesels with the square head.Also the Letmo 2,5cc diesel replica is wel known engine.
This short stroke engine have twin ball races,drumvalve intake and 4 transferflutes.I am absolutly sure to read somewhere, that the engine can run around 20,000 rpm, if run in properly, with a race fuel and a small prop.In the manual is write down only 11000 rpm.That`s actually a very low number for a engine with these futures. But also they recommend a 9x4 prop, the smalest for control line contest shoud be a 8x4.
I am sure,that the engine can give moore than 11,000.The manual say also 40% ether/35% castor and only 25% petroleum.Usualy a race mix have 45% petroleum, 25 aether and 28% castoroil with some smal amount of ignition improver
Never the less, its a lovely engine, made in limited batches of 500 units.
