Introducing the MOPGF60i2-E: A New Benchmark in RC Aircraft and Fixed Wing Drone Power
China Moneypro has long been recognized as a pioneer in high-quality gasoline engines, standing as the first factory in China to independently develop and produce small multi-cylinder four-stroke gasoline engines. Their latest creation, the MOPGF60i2-E, represents a significant leap forward in professional power systems for RC aircraft and fixed wing drones. This engine is meticulously engineered to deliver exceptional performance, combining high power output with remarkable fuel efficiency, robust torque, quiet operation, and a compact, beautifully crafted design. Whether you are a serious hobbyist or a professional drone operator, the MOPGF60i2-E is designed to meet the most demanding requirements.
The MOPGF60i2-E is not just another engine; it is a precision instrument. It shares the same installation dimensions as 300-350 class methanol inline four-stroke engines, making it an ideal drop-in replacement or upgrade. Importantly, its power output is fully comparable to those larger methanol engines, yet it offers the significant advantages of gasoline operation: lower fuel costs, reduced noise, and extended flight times. This makes it the ultimate power configuration for RC realistic aircraft and fixed wing drones with a takeoff weight of 12-16kg. The engine’s performance characteristics ensure that your aircraft has the reliable, consistent power needed for both scale flight and demanding missions.

Advanced Engineering for Superior Performance
The MOPGF60i2-E is built upon a foundation of innovative engineering. It utilizes a CM6 spark plug and comes standard with China Moneypro’s specialized universal exhaust silencer. This combination ensures smooth exhaust flow, remarkably low sound levels, surging power delivery, and minimal vibration. The engine is equipped with a rear-mounted Walbro carburetor, renowned for its reliability and simple adjustment. This allows for precise fuel metering, optimizing performance across the entire power band. The connecting rods are precision-forged and incorporate needle roller bearings for superior lubrication and longevity of the pin shaft.
Unique Lubrication and Internal Mechanisms
One of the standout features of the MOPGF60i2-E is its unique separated lubrication circulation system. This design ensures that every critical internal component receives optimal lubrication, reducing friction and wear, and extending the engine’s operational life. Furthermore, the engine employs a distinctive dual piston ring setup: one oil ring for lubrication and one sealing ring for compression. This system provides better sealing and more effective lubrication than traditional single-ring designs. The unique 90-degree crankshaft angle dual cam mechanism is another engineering triumph, specifically designed to reduce vibration and increase the smoothness of operation. This results in a more stable platform for sensitive camera equipment or for the pilot who demands a refined flight experience.
Superior Materials and Precision Manufacturing
The commitment to quality is evident in the materials and manufacturing tolerances. The cylinder liner is made from wear-resistant ductile iron. Critically, the roundness tolerance of the inner hole in the cylinder block is maintained within 0.01mm. This level of precision is far superior to typical aluminum alloy chrome-plated cylinder liners, which have a roundness tolerance of around 0.03mm. The increased precision ensures a better piston-to-cylinder seal, leading to higher compression, more efficient combustion, and greater power output. Additionally, the use of ductile iron and the avoidance of chrome plating align with modern environmental standards, meeting the stricter requirements of regions like the European Union. The engine is also fitted with high-quality bearings throughout, ensuring long-term reliability under demanding conditions.
Integrated Ignition and Electric Start System
Reliable ignition is critical for consistent performance, especially in long-endurance applications. The MOPGF60i2-E features an RCEXL Automatic Angle Induction Ignition System, specially manufactured for China Moneypro. This system automatically adjusts the ignition timing based on engine speed, optimizing combustion for both starting and running conditions. It is paired with the RCEXL CM6 spark plug for a powerful and reliable spark. For ease of use, the engine is equipped with an electric starting system. This system is compact and lightweight, featuring a quality brushless motor and brushless electronic speed controller. The electric starter requires a 12V input or a 3S lithium battery and weighs only 360g, making field starting effortless and convenient.
Conclusion: The Ideal Choice for Discerning Enthusiasts
In summary, the MOPGF60i2-E is a masterful piece of engineering that sets a new standard for four-stroke gasoline engines in the RC aircraft and fixed wing drone market. Its combination of ultra-high stability, large torque output, and ultra-low vibration makes it exceptionally well-suited for long-endurance drones and high-fidelity RC realistic aircraft. With a power-to-weight ratio exceeding 2, it offers an outstanding balance of performance and efficiency. The meticulous attention to detail, from the unique lubrication system to the precision-machined cylinder liner and the advanced ignition system, results in an engine that is not only powerful but also reliable and durable. For those seeking the best power configuration for their 300-350 class aircraft, the MOPGF60i2-E from China Moneypro is the definitive choice, delivering professional-grade performance in a compact, refined package.
