Traxxas Nitro Engine Porting
Why do off road R/C models use 2 stroke engines instead of 4 stroke engines like their Airplane counterparts?
You can do so much more with 4 stroke engines technology than 2 stroke and hobby related companies like Traxxas, NovaRossi, OS et el spend big R&D dollars trying to improve the efficiency and timing and porting shape/size of 2 stroke Nitro model engines, who not just develope 4 stroke engines in the .21 or lower size class, they already go as far down as .30 for Aircraft model engines.
They would be too big for all but the largest models. Also it would cost alot more for R&D. Also the powerband is different between 2 and 4 stroke nitros. Some people have adapted 4 strokes and rotary engines into car applications so if that's what you are looking for go for it.
