AMCO AMCO engines were Introduced in 1947 as a side line by Anchor Motor Co. who were based in Chester, Cheshire, England. Their first really successful engine design was the AMCO 3.5 PB introduced in 1949 and designed by Ted Martin. AMCO engines were distributed and serviced by Henry J. Nicholls under the name of Mercury Models from HJN’s shop at 308 Holloway Road, London. In April 1952 Anchor Motor Co. ceased model engine production in favour of lucrative government work and sold its model engine sideline to Aeronautical Electronic & Engineering Co. In Alperton, Middlesex, who under the guidance of Dennis Allen started production late the same year of the 3.5cc PB and the 3.5cc BB, both engines were commercially available in 1953 with some mechanical reliability improvements (lightened piston, billet con-rod). In March 1955 AMCO engine production finally ceased although 3.5cc PB replicas were made in 2000 by CS in China. | |

DC Davies-Charlton & Co was formed in 1947 by Hefin Davies and was located initially in Barnoldswick, Lincolnshire, England. In 1952 it gained control over Allbon Engineering’s engines but still marketed the engine range under the Allbon name. In 1952 Davies-Charlton became a limited company and became Davies-Charlton Ltd. this was probably to allow Alan Allbon to become a share holder in Davies-Charlton as he became responsible for its engine design and production at this time. In 1955 D.C. re-located to the Isle of Man and in 1963 started to make some of the Frog engines which had been out of production for several years following IMA ceasing it’s model engine production. In 1982 D.C. ceased production and sold off all remaining parts and engines. | |

Dooling The three Dooling brothers, Russell, Harris and Tom, started Dooling Bros. in Los Angeles USA 1938 producing tethered car kits. Once WW2 ended they started engine design work and in 1947 started production of the famous Spark ignition Dooling 61 racing engine. Russell did most the design work with Harris leading the actual engineering production, Tom was the public face of the company entering and wining car races and being the one who drove sales. As supplied was an excellent engine but if tuned to the limit tended to have crankcase failures, in 1955 the AMCRA asked Bruce Underwood to design a replacement crankcase and the famous Yellow Jacket Dooling was born. With the invention of the glow plug the brothers added the Dooling 29 glow plug engine to their range in 1949 which was another immediate racing success. | |

Frog (Flies Right Off Ground!) Frog engines were made by International Model Aircraft (IMA), Merton, London, UK. Engine production started in 1946. IMA ceased all production of engines in 1962 as sales had reduced significantly. In 1964 it was realised there was still a small demand for Frog engines so all tooling was shipped to D.C. on the Isle of Man who produced the 80 ser 3, 100 ser 3, 150 ser 3, 249 BB and the 349 BB until 1966. | |

HB Helmut Burnhardt made the Veco range under licence from K&B branded as "Veco Europe" in Germany, they featured modified castings with removable front housings, they later sold the engines under their own name HB. Later production 40 and 61 engines had optional PDP porting. The power increase with Perry Directional Porting added to standard loop scavenging is a direct result of the engine being able to "breath better" at higher RPM than had been possible with just the standard loop scavenging. Both K&B and HB engines have now been acquired by RJL Industries who supply engines and spare parts from America. | |
It is of note that HB supplied the U.S. military with thousands of their 10cc loop scavenged engines for radio controlled target drones, many of these have now found there way in to the public domain. As the drone engines were not expected to survive for any length of time, the front ball bearing was never fitted to reduce cost, instead a solid spacer was used. If you have one of these it is recommended that you replace the spacer with a ball bearing, this will restore the engines life expectancy to that of the commercial version. | |

Customers engines could be sent back to Hornet to be converted or the conversion kit sent via post. Cost £450 Capacity: 0.607 cu in (9.95 cc) |
HP HP engines were made by Hirtenberger Pattronenfabrik of Hirtenberg, Austria. | |
HP engines were originally produced by Hirtenberger Patronen an Austrian munitions company (the factory is located in Hirtenberg, Patronen means cartridge - hence the name), production has now been taken over by MECOA (Model Engine Corporation of America) P.O. Box 98, Sierra Madre, CA 91025, U.S.A. Paul Bugl died this year. The Gold Cup range were virtually the same as the Silver Star engines in all but colour, parts being interchangeable between common capacity and induction layout engines. 1986
'Four Stroke engine design is a science. Hirtenberger Patronen no longer had the two stroke genius of Paul Bugl available and Peter Billes moved to WEBRA to design their Speed range of engines, fortunately for modellers they did still however have exceptional engineering capability, and resources. | |

The HP61 engine featured twin piston rings, a very long crankshaft and die cast conrod, the selling price was high compared to other 10cc engines. When tested it was found to be the most powerful 10cc R/C engine reviewed to date and was the first model production engine to use Schnuerle porting. |

All series “94” carburettors must run with exhaust pressure from the lower unit to the fuel tank. As an option, silicone tubing may be placed between the water outlet on the water jacket and the water fitting in the exhaust cavity to reduce noise levels. |
