Minari makes engines for PPG, or motorized paragliders, in a very wide range.
-They are single-cylinder engines, but in different architectures, with a vertical upright cylinder, with an inverted cylinder, a cylinder at 45°, at 90°, and with a forced air cooling fan.
"F1, VE series"
“Minari F1, VM series”
-The engines are 2-stroke and give 27 CV, weighing around 15 Kg on average. The crankcase is made of magnesium.
-With the vertical upright cylinder there are the F1-VE, VME and VMEC.
-With the inverted vertical cylinder there are the F1-VM, RM, RME and RMEC.
"F1, AM series"
-With the cylinders at 45° there are the F1-AM, AE, AME, AMEC.
"F1 series at 90°"
-The engines inclined to 90° are the M9, E9, ME9, E9-2E and ME9C. There are two displacements, the 180 cc that gives 27 hp at 7,700 rpm and the 200 cc that gives 29 hp at 8,000 rpm.
"With forced air, electric starter, etc"
-With forced air are the Vertical VRFE models and the 45° one, the AERF.
From Appendix 11: On their website we have found two new engines:
The first one is the F1-M9-F PRO Frizzoni. A single cylinder of which there are 2 versions. The 180 cc gives 27 hp at 7700 rpm, and the 200 cc gives 29 hp at 8000 rpm.
The second is the STRATOS 400, an engine with 2 opposed cylinders that delivers 50 hp at 8,000 rpm. It weighs 36 kg with electrical system and battery.
