In September 2021, we launched the first FG-VT9 V2 engine, which was warmly received and highly praised by engine model lovers once released. Subsequently, sincere suggestions and strong expectations for the second V2 engine we have received from many model fans. So we decided to launch the new FG-VT157 V2 engine in November 2022. Add the FG-VT157 to the V2 series to make them an era mark that reappears in the history of motorcycle engines. Continuing the style of the FG-VT9, the FG-VT157 V2 engine is designed with the basically same dimensions and some parts available for common use. However, we also put in some new design elements to make it unique, such as the classic&simulated appearance, larger piston and cylinder liner, spherical combustion chamber, V-shaped angle valve, improved carburetor and so on.
Features: .Impressive Simulation: The authentic rocker cover on the classic cylinder head and gearbox cover allow the model to restore the original charm and get closer to the motorcycle engine in real life, representing the most remarkable characteristics of a motorcycle in an era.
.Compatible with RC Vehicles: Features larger cylinder diameter and longer stroke for superior displacement, along with stronger connecting rods to provide superb torque protection when installed on the vehicles.
.Reliable Structure: Adopts an OHV valve mechanism, a 45° angle between two cylinders, a realistic hemispherical combustion chamber, an inlet rocker arm with a V-shaped angle as well as a separable rocker arm cover chamber for easier to observe and adjust the engine.
.Sophisticated Manufacture: Treated with aluminum CNC precision processing on the body, along with anodic oxidation and sand blast on the surface for a pleasing mechanical artwork with texture and aesthetics.
.Stable Performance: Equipped with a large-area heat sink for incredible air cooling effects, the engine is able to operate stably keeping low speed and supports the use of different fuels for more balanced burning due to the optimized carburetor.
.Best Gift: Whether used as an excellent desktop collection or applied to an RC model car, the model makes one of the best engines for collectors, which is not inferior at all.
.Notes: The assembled engine with a spark plug and CDI igniter is ready to run, but the fixed engine base and batteries are not included. Please operate the engine according to the instructions to avoid damage because of improper operation. If you have any questions about the product, please feel free to contact us.
The quality of the FG-VT157 is fantastic 👌
I love all the chrome and the details of this engine.
The adjustable valves are a very nice feature, and lots of room for grease up top, I absolutely love the chrome valve covers.
The updated carburetor is perfect for this engine and very easy to adjust but the throttle arm is in a difficult position to install a scale airfilter.
I like how the timing is simplified only 2 gears instead of 5.
The Pistons are massive and there's so much compression.💪
Out of the box I still disassembled the engine and went over everything and I was very impressed.
The ground wire is incorporated into the hall sensor so no ground wire is needed and
I also followed Jon Cook advice and installed bigger resistors inline. Thank you for your work on the Cison V2 Jon Cook.
The FG-VT157 comes with 2 sets of resistors 3.3 ohm and 8.5 ohm I installed 19.7ohm on the 20k scale so far zero issues with my hall sensor.
I also wish that 2 capscrews 2.5 x 20mm was included for mounting this engine. (Hard to find).
Out of the box this engine has ran perfectly, no messing around, other than installing resistors.
If you love V2 engines the FG-VT157 with hemi head is the one to get.
Here is a little video, it's running a little rich for breaking in the idle is a little high to keep it from stalling.
Thank you Cison and the Stirlingkit Team for bringing us such a high quality engine that runs and sounds like the real thing 👍🙏😊

won't start
Got the motor and it looks great but on the first start it ran for a second and died .when I checked it out it had no spark so being a bike builder I checked the igniter box by jumping the black and white wires and it sparked but the pickup in the cone is bad I sent an email a few days ago with no answer yet . I also have the Panhead motor and the little knuckle head motor .I had the same issue with the panhead motor and they sent me a new pickup and now that one is fine .But I am waiting for a reply on this motor.

This product is well built and is the second one I have bought! I am disappointed that I did not receive the $100 off and was charged full amount!!
