F30 80 Hp shown with optional fan cooling and G-40 gearbox. |

The F30 is a special design, high torque, low Rpm version of the 110 Hp F30S. Peak torque is developed at 1000 Rpm less than the F30S , allowing cruise speeds at very low Rpms, resulting in very quiet and smooth operations. Factory recommended TBO is rated at 1200 Hrs. @ 75% power.
The F30 incorporates Al-Nikasil coated cylinders for superior performance and reliability. Al-Nikasil in simple terms is a nickel based material, applied in a paste form, when super heated it becomes part of the cylinder itself. Al-Nikasil provides for a super low coefficient of friction, reducing engine heat and wear. The pistons and cylinders expand at the same rate thus providing for a seizure resistant engine. F30 crankshaft is 4130 chromemolly steel. Heads, cylinders, rings, block casting, connecting rods and associated components are all of the highest grade alloys available.
