Next-generation 4-stroke for 40-size models

The O.S. Engine OSMG0956 56FS-a brings a practical performance step for pilots flying 40-size aircraft. This alpha-series 4-stroke packs key refinements while fitting into the same mounting footprint as the earlier 52FS, making installation straightforward for those swapping engines.

Key design highlights for dependable operation

The 56FS-a features a redesigned muffler with a multi-positional manifold and a rubber O-ring to reduce oil seepage and lower noise. Its updated lubrication architecture removes the need for crankcase venting, simplifying maintenance and improving dependability on the field.

Carburetion tuned for efficient burn

This engine uses the 40NA carburetor with an improved venturi to cut fuel dribble and steady the air/fuel flow, giving more consistent combustion and responsive throttle performance across the rpm band.

For RC pilots who want a cleaner-running, easier-to-install 4-stroke for 40-size airframes, the O.S. Engine OSMG0956 56FS-a is a solid choice that balances usability and performance.

The 56FS-a is designed to occupy the same mounting envelope as the 52FS, so most airframes accept the swap without altering the firewall or mounts.
Inspect the muffler O-ring for sealing, check for fuel drips around the carburetor, and keep the crankcase bolts secure. Periodic carburetor tuning helps maintain performance.
For sport and aerobatics try a 13x6 or a 12x6-8; for scale work lean toward the 13x6-7 or 12x6-8, depending on airframe drag and weight.
No, the 56FS-a uses a new lubrication approach that eliminates the need for additional crankcase ventilation, simplifying installation and upkeep.
