SAIE056GK    56 Golden Knight AAC w/Muffler: JJ


Key Features 


The overpowering choice for .40-size models

Highest performance in its class

Lightweight AAC construction

Baked on, gloss-black heat dissipating finish with shiny gold valve covers






Overview

Many pilots of .40 size airplanes are powering their models with .50 size 
4-stroke engines like Saito's famous FA-50. Captivated by the sweet sound of a 
4-cycle engine, they also appreciate the slightly higher static thrust that 
comes via a bigger diameter prop. 


For pilots who long for the thrill of overpowering their model, Saito offers 
the FA-56 and FA-56GK engines. Saito took the proven .50 and bored it out by 
1.4mm to arrive at a .5612 cubic inch displacement. While the weight remains 
nearly identical to the .50 (15.5 ounces w/muffler), the power difference is 
remarkable. In fact, a 1,000 RPM gain was recorded with an APC 12x7 propeller!



The FA-56 features AAC piston/cylinder type construction (aluminum piston, 
aluminum cylinder with chrome plating), while all other components are the same 
as on the FA-50. For fliers wanting to lend a touch of class to their aircraft, 
the GK version of the .56 features a gloss black finish with polished gold valve 
covers. Of course, as with all Saito engines, the FA-56 and FA-56GK come with a 
full 3-year warranty. 


If you want blazing performance and that 4-stroke purr for your model, check 
out the Saito FA-56.
