Vaxell – a new brand of aviation engines
Vaxell aeronautical engines are designed and manufactured by Świątek, a company, which has 40 years of experience in the preparation of automotive engines. These 4-cylinder boxer direct-drive engines are based on Volkswagen-type-1 blocks, and VW parts.
There are three models: 100i of 2,275 cm3, 80i of 1,914 cm3, and 60i of 1,594 cm3. All of these models are multi-point injection, have a specific intake collector and a homemade cam shaft. The injection, as well as the electronic dual ignition are managed by a calculator from Ecumaster, the EMU-Black.
Thanks to the homemade cam shaft, their particularity lies in the lowering of the maximum power regime. Compared to other VW-based developments, the Vaxells are also characterized by a much higher torque.
On the other hand, the two 90-degree V-shaped twin-cylinders are reductive, simple electronic ignition, and single-point injection. They use industrial engine parts.
Of course, the manufacturer has equipped them with specific cam shafts, of which he is a specialist, and specially designed gearboxes. Injection and ignition are managed by an Ecumaster’s calculator, the EMU-Classic.
Announcement: Due to the current situation (it means, in autumn 2021), which is manifested by the increasing difficulties in supplying original parts for the V2-50i engine, we are no longer able to commit ourselves to delivery times and are therefore forced to remove that engine from the price list.
Between twin-cylinders, only the V2-40i model remains available.
