The Rotax 915 iS is an Austrian aircraft engine, produced by Rotax of Gunskirchen for use in ultralight aircraft, homebuilt aircraft, light-sport aircraft, small helicopters and gyroplanes. The engine was type certified in 2017.[2][3]

The engine was first publicly displayed at AirVenture in July 2015[2] and first flown in March 2016.[4]

In January 2016 the engine was named AVweb's "Best New Engine" of 2015.[5]

Design and development

The Rotax 915 iS is a four-cylinder four-stroke, horizontally-opposed, turbocharged, air and liquid-cooled, gasoline engine design, with a mechanical gearbox reduction drive. The turbocharger has a compression ratio of 3.5:1 and the engine will have a critical altitude of {{convert|15000|ft|m|0|abbr=on}}. It employs dual electronically controlled fuel injection, using dual channel Rockwell Collins ECUs, with dual ignition and produces {{convert|141|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} for take-off and {{convert|135|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} continuous. The engine can produce rated power up to {{convert|15000|ft|m|0|abbr=on}} and has a ceiling of {{convert|23000|ft|m|0|abbr=on}}.[1][2][9]

The engine is based on the Rotax 912, but differs in that it has a reinforced crankshaft, new pistons, a new gearbox and a turbocharger. Time between overhauls was expected to eventually be raised to 2000 hours with operational experience, but started at 1200 hours.[2][6][7]

The design entered production in the second half of 2017. The European Aviation Safety Agency certified the Rotax 915 iSc3 A on 14 December 2017 and the Rotax 915 iSc3 B on 4 January 2018.[8]
