Flathead Cison V-8 Engine Guide: Everything You Need to Know | Stirlingkit

Yesterday, Mr.XI brought the sample of the Cison Flathead v8 engine model to us. CISON's Small-block V8 engine model (model: V8-440 (Flathead)) is a high-simulation engine with a beautiful appearance and powerful performance. The V-shaped eight-cylinder appearance covered with orange electrophoretic paint, the internal structure of high-precision five-axis CNC machining, as well as the power of 3.3ps and the speed range of 1500-7500rpm, make it an ideal choice for DIY enthusiasts and RC model modifiers.

Q: How does the lubrication system of this engine model work?
A: This engine model uses an independent lubrication system. The specific working principle is to transfer lubricating oil to key parts inside the engine through a pump to ensure that each component is fully lubricated during operation.

Q: Can I choose different colors?
A: The current color provided for this engine model is orange as shown in the picture, and other color options are not available at the moment.

Q: Why is it recommended to use 2S-3S Lipo batteries as starting power supply?
A: It is recommended to use 2S-3S Lipo batteries to ensure that the engine can obtain sufficient power during starting and provide stable operation.

Q: Can it be used in high temperature environments?
A: This engine model adopts a low-temperature intake pipe design, which improves the applicability in high-temperature environments. However, in extremely high-temperature environments, it is still recommended to pay attention to the heat dissipation and operating status of the engine.

Q: Why adopt a V-shaped eight-cylinder design?
A: The V-shaped eight-cylinder design helps improve the engine's power and performance. This design allows for better cylinder filling and smoother airflow, improving combustion efficiency.

Q: Does it support the installation of generators?
A: Yes, this engine model reserves a generator installation position to support the installation of a generator. Generators can be used as an added feature to provide power for other equipment.

Q: Is there an optional exhaust system?
A: There is currently no optional exhaust system mentioned in the manual, but you can choose an applicable exhaust system for modification according to your personal needs.

Q: Is there a recommended maintenance interval?
A: It is recommended to carry out lubricating oil replacement, cleaning and inspection regularly. The specific maintenance cycle can be adjusted according to the frequency of use and environmental conditions. Detailed maintenance instructions can be found in the instruction manual.

Q: When the Cison v8 engine is shipped?

A: Dear customer,

Since the production progress has reached 90%, but the remaining work cannot be restarted until February 15, the estimated delivery date is adjusted to the end of February. To make up for the inconvenience, we will give the first batch of users a tachometer for free.

During the Spring Festival (February 1st-15th), the factory is on holiday. The Spring Festival is an important time for family reunions, thank you for your understanding.

If you have questions, please contact us. Thanks!

Wish you a happy Chinese New Year!
