The Weslake A80 is a liquid cooled, two-stroke, opposed piston, 1332cc diesel aircraft engine, produced by Weslake.[1][2]

Design and development

This opposed piston aero-engine appears superficially similar to a true flat-four "boxer" engine, but is actually significantly different. It has two ported cylinders with a crankshaft at each end and four pistons in total. This engine is similar to the prototype Diesel Air engine, which was built for Diesel Air[3] by Weslake, but which has to date failed to reach volume production.

Each crankshaft is linked by an idler gear to a centre shaft.[4]

Applications

  • none to date
