FQ-550 Aviation Engine

Horizontally opposed, 4-cylinder

The FQ-550 is an aviation-grade, air-cooled two-stroke engine with a horizontally opposed four-cylinder layout. Automatic-advance CDI ignition and premix lubrication deliver stable output at high altitude and under demanding conditions. Every engine is dynamometer-tested and flight-verified before delivery, backed by worldwide technical support.
