TESTIMONIALS

What our customers say about this product​

“I average around 100 hours flight time per year and I have to say this engine is an absolute joy to use”

When I first built my Fisher 202 I used a variety of other engines with limited success. I then looked at the 23 Series which came nearest to my requirements and it works great! Its so much fun to fly with. At the time of writing this I have 700 plus hours on the engine and its never been to the shop. I am still running on the original pistons, rings, bearings, seals cylinders and crankshaft. Other than regular maintenance no mechanical work has been required.
