SAITO ENGINE FG-17 GASOLINE

Saito Seisakusho Co. Ltd. is one of the best recognized and respected modeling companies in the world. This Japanese manufacturer of top-of-the-line 4-tactical aircraft engines has been supplying modelers from around the world with its products for more than 50 years.

SAITO quadrotors have been recognized both in the world of professional pilots, who appreciate their excellent technical parameters, durability and performance, as well as by beginners, primarily for their simple adjustment and virtually maintenance-free operation.

After all, it is no secret that each of the Japanese manufacturer's engines is considered a veritable modeling mini masterpiece. All 4-tacticals with the SAITO logo are characterized by unchanged for years high quality workmanship with great attention to detail, unrivaled performance (with their physical parameters), as well as, which for some is not without significance - design, and a unique sound produced during operation. All this makes SAITO engines a brand in themselves.

Saito Seisakusho Co. Ltd is also the world's first manufacturer of 4-barrel model gasoline engines. The featured FG-17 is one of 9 gasoline engines in this manufacturer's current lineup.

The FG-17 engine is designed for model airplane builders who value the highest quality and durability, perfect performance and low weight. The FG-17 was designed "from the mold" of the sensational FA-100 engine - it is equipped with a pump carburetor, electronic ignition system and spark plug. In addition, the engine can easily be installed in the model instead of the Saito FA-100 engine, only after changing the tank and fuel lines, adapted for gasoline propulsion.

In addition to the FG-17, our store also offers the FG-14 B (13.47 cm 3 ), FG-20 (20.52 cm 3 ), FG-30 (29.11 cm 3 ), FG-36 (36.3 cm 3 ) and the most powerful unit FG-57T Twin Cylinder (57.0 cm 3 ).
