(Former Rockwell JLO). Engines designed especially for ULM.

-All are two-stroke engines. Outstanding was the single-cylinder "215" that gave 20 hp with a displacement of 214 cc.

-The very similar "340" with 338 cc and the twin-cylinder "430" with 428 cc.

-Some had direct transmission and others belt gear.

-We saw them installed on the Quicksilvers and the Pterodactyls, first generation of ULMs.

-The Cuyuna and the JLO engines were almost identical and had many interchangeable parts.

-In fact the original Cuyunas were installed in American snowmobiles in the style that Austrian Rotax is doing now.

-Due to the modular shape of the cylinders and air flow through their fins, a single fan could cool all the cylinders.

-Each cylinder has its contact, its coil and its electric capacitor.

-If the engine is a "430-D" it has direct transmission and if it is a "430-R", it has reduction gear.

-It can be operated upright or inverted. Starting, as we see, is done by a start puller.

-The Cuyuna ULII-02 and the "Pave Tiger" engines responded to military orders for RPV (Remotely Piloted Vehicle).
