The HKS 700E is a twin-cylinder, horizontally opposed, four stroke, carburetted aircraft engine, designed for use on ultralight aircraft, powered parachutes and ultralight trikes. The engine is manufactured by HKS, a Japanese company noted for its automotive racing engines.〔Cliche, Andre: ''Ultralight Aircraft Shopper's Guide'' 8th Edition, page G-9 Cybair Limited Publishing, 2001. ISBN 0-9680628-1-4〕 ==Development== The HKS 700E has dual capacitor discharge ignition, dual carburetors and electric start. The engine is mainly air-cooled, but with oil-cooled cylinder heads. The OHV pushrod engine has four valves per cylinder, and nickel-ceramic coated cylinder bores. Lubrication is dry sump, with a trochoid pump.〔〔 The reduction drive is a choice of two integral gearboxes: the A-type gearbox has a 2.58:1 ratio and can accommodate propellers of up to 4,000 kg/cm2 inertial load; the B-type gearbox has a 3.47:1 ratio and can accommodate propellers of up to 6,000 kg/cm2.〔〔 The 700E burns per hour in cruise flight at 4,750 rpm. The recommended time between overhauls is 1000 hours, although this is expected to be increased as experience is gained.〔 Producing at 6,200 rpm for three minutes for take-off and at 5,800 rpm continuously, the 700E was designed as a fuel efficient four stroke alternative to the high fuel consumption two stroke engines, such as the Rotax 582.〔〔 HKS 700E engines from serial number 101105 and above meet ASTM standard 2339-05, which governs the design and manufacture of reciprocating engines for light-sport aircraft. Compliance with the ASTM standard means the aircraft is applicable for use on special or experimental light-sport aircraft (S-LSA or E-LSA).〔(HKS Engines ) Compliance Statement July,2006〕 The company's owner's manual disclaimer states: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「HKS 700E」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
