The KFM 107 is a two-cylinder, two-stroke, single ignition, horizontally opposed aircraft engine designed for ultralight aircraft and motor gliders. [1] [2]
The engine was designed and produced by the KFM (Komet Flight Motor) Aircraft Motors Division of Italian American Motor Engineering of Italy and has been out of production since 1986. [1] [2]
The KFM 107 is a conventional twin-cylinder engine that is very compact and light weight at only 15.2 kg (34 lb) in its 107s version. The engine features single capacitor discharge ignition, a single Tillotson butterfly-type carburetor, integral fuel pump, tuned exhaust system and reed valve induction. It was offered with 2:1 belt drive reduction system. Starting is electric starter or recoil starter. [1] [2]
Most versions of the 107 produce 25 hp (19 kW) at 6300 rpm for five minutes for take-off and 22.5 hp (17 kW) at 6080 rpm continuous. [1] [2]
