Design and development

The engine is based on the Volkswagen air-cooled engine or the Volkswagen Wasserboxer engine. It is extensively modified for aircraft use and all the parts are custom made. The engine is derived from the certified engines produced by the same manufacturer and used in several motorgliders and small aircraft. [1] The engine can be delivered with aluminium or magnesium casing (Wasserboxer-casing or the casing from the beetle engine), where the aluminium casing weighs 7 kg more.

The Volkswagen wasserboxer is a four cylinder horizontally opposed pushrod overhead-valve (OHV) petrol engine developed by Volkswagen. The "Wasserboxer" ("water-boxer") name is a portmanteau of two German words, where "wasser" indicates that the engine is water-cooled, and "boxer" describes the arrangement and movement of the pistons. It was available in two displacements — 1.9-litres or 2.1-litres. Both engines have the same cylinder bore, but the 2.1-litre has a longer stroke. The wasserboxer was unique to the Volkswagen Type 2 (T3).
