Post by: BEAMer on June 25, 2008, 08:27:18 AM

hi.

I am a robot builder from India and an active member of this forum. iam building a new robot for a competition and the main requirement for the robot is an IC engine. the maximum limit for the engine is 3.5 cc.

the problem is that i dont know anything about IC engines. are there any ready made IC engines with reasonable prize. or is it advisable to build it on my own... please guide me..

Engines this small are typically glowplug engines. They are available at model RC toy stores.
