SMALLEST Production V12 ENGINE In The WORLD! - Preview 

It's very similar to its full scale counterparts from brands like Lamborghini, and Aston Martin.

It even has an actual transmission to go with it! Props to the engine builders

More cylinders more Better

it runs super rough for a V12 though

@@jwalster9412 believe it, it costs from over 3000 dollars, 6000 whith the trasmission

PLEASE

Tfw it's probably cheaper to buy a Toyota 1GZ-FE

shut up and take my money!

Not a V12 but... ru-vid.com/show-UCX-fEgMLE56OYqEdOpyob7w

Or TWO engines in a 3 point hydro!!!!!🤗🤗🤗

Just don't let Gordon Murray near it or it will sound like a bumble bee.

@@jwalster9412 He could storm the high end RC market with the T5 lmao

Proving my father was right when he said “A revving V12 sounds like a telephone book getting ripped in half.”

Pra vcs da gringa tá barato aqui no Brasil tá o preço de um carro popular

Some years ago I stood watching an idling V12. Can't remember the car, though it was either a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. What stood out was the sound. It wasn't aggressive. It didn't gurgle and spit like most all performance built V8 I've heard. Instead it was like a well engineered and maintained sewing machine. It may sound silly but that was what it made me think about, and it impressed me a lot. Now a relative owned an offshore racer that he competed with. This was powered by two Lamborghini V12 engines and those were an entirely different animal. Tweaked to the limit of what was possible and without any attempt at a muffler that thing screamed. At idle it was ear shattering loud. Give it a blip and it was as loud as any military torpedo boat at full throttle, and at full throttle you better be far off coast or there would be a lot of unhappy people. Turns out the average life expectancy of offshore racers is pretty low, and competing at the pro level will drain the bank accounts distressingly quickly. So his wife put her foot down and made him stop competing and sell off the boat. Well his doctors may have had something to say also as they were talking about how how the repeated belting he got while driving that boat did a number on his back, and were showing him wheelchairs talking about how it was just a matter of time...

This is how they all should be

Same

How much are they,?you might be surprised

@@jamesharris3061 if you looked at the link provided you'd see what the cost is. It's not surprising, these aren't cheap. This example is nearly three grand American.

This is the way

Never doubt full send!

Is this beyblade?

Lack of variable valve timing and single OHC will seriously stymy high end performance.

you speak like someone paid you

Ofcourse it is... because it is nowhere near cheap!! :D I got three real size motorcycles, a vintage moped and an old car wich I bought for less - COMBINED.... :D

Cheap? You can buy a *real* small block chevy crate motor for less.

@@gabrielsturdevant9700 I wish, I'd be willing to do me messed up stuff for one of the bad boys.

@@wtfiswiththosehandles You can't compared the cost of a brand new item to a 20 year old used motor. Yes it's tiny and uses few materials, but you are paying for the thousands of hours of research and design, the hundreds of hours of machine work with expensive machines and the man hours it takes to put it all together and running right. Things also tend to be way more expensive when made in small quantities compared to mass produced. This isn't a car engine that they have produced millions off, it's a tiny little art peace that they will make just very few of.

I think 4 cylinder is enough.

@@GF-mf7mlneed more powa baby

I6's naturally wanna twist themselves around, would be really hard to implement a balance shaft on this scale

@@pringle8237a straight 6 doesn't use a balancing shaft because it has perfect primary and secondary balance. You might be thinking of an I4 or I5 engine.

@@wiegraf9009agreed. This is the exact reason that modern Class 8 trucks and busses all use straight six engines!

you can literally SEE the balance cant you. just sat on the dest running totally smooth

​​@@dangeary2134not necessarily, if an i6 is going to get me better performance and mpg than a V engine I'll pick that one

shnipdt7

@@stefevr i want to hook it up to an alternator.

@@absolutemadchad8637 you have to build a model F1 car and have the same cooling solution, also more fuel = more downforce haha

@@absolutemadchad8637 😞 that’s a bummer

@@absolutemadchad8637 Just use a huge water pump and a big radiator and cooler

Run colder burning fuel and use a very small gocart or minibike and it would rip

@@absolutemadchad8637 According to my calculations, if you place this engine inside a freezer with wheels on it, it will easily achieve a 380mph top speed before your chicken begins to spoil.

I was thinking about adapting it for a boat.

I just thought about the same thing !

it weighs 4 KG lol.

​@@howarddyla9676 I mean, we could make that work, just need to be a high lift body instead of a light, speedy and agile one.

Ur talking seriously outrageous. But maybe could be done.

Just what I thought!

this is a great idea

This gets about 55% as much revs as an F1 engine so at the very least you won’t be able to replicate the sound. According to the description redline here is 11,000 RPM, whereas F1 cars regardless of age get closer to 20,000 RPM.

A 12 to 1 header would be absolutely mad!

or a 12 to 2 with equal length headers

or Ferrari, even an older V12 Jaguar.

But it's not a scale model of a V12.

@@mariemccann5895 Well would ya mind telling me what it is then? Cause the title says V12, and so does the physical cylinder configuration.

@@TheOldMates405I think the point is it's an original v12 engine design not a scaled down model of a production car engine. I mean, fair but who cares.

@@wiegraf9009 Oh righto Poor wording but if that's what he means then fair game Even still, could make a cool functional scale model of a Lambo

I just want to see it have a tach.

@@murraymadness4674 I'd also like to see the RPM in real-time. Tacho and some kind of controlled engine loading.

With a high-rise intake, and triple carbs, of course!

I was thinking this will bring life into gas/nitro rc with some amazing new ways to make a mark on the hobby. if these small engines (v8/v12) just can get a bit more affordable, tons of people will jump in and we'll have a growing aftermarket of parts suppliers

I bet the power is there! not sure if the strength of the internals is though...

i was thinking the same thing

Id love to get one, but i dont have that kind of money. Thats ok, because i have more fun designing and printing compressed air engines

What's it in ? Or going in to ?

What do you do with it ,does it power r/c cars ??

Too much risk of contamination there, I'd run a water to water heat exchanger.

​@@233kosta yep, would be the best way. Even better, use actual coolant (yeah it's made mostly of distilled water, I know) for the radiator part, and the external water for the other. But yes, heat exchanger sounds like the best option.

@@LtdJorge Yeh, that's what I meant by water-water HE, the internal loop would probably be 50% antifreeze or at least have some chemical stabilisers. Don't want to risk blockage or corrosion. But definitely better to use the surrounding water rather than air, it'd make the heat exchanger a whooooole lot smaller.

​​@@233kostaas just on a houseboat and lake water is how they cooled the generator

Nah...this engine is just a novelty. Why risk a $4000 engine when a small brushless motor would do the job for much less hassle and cost.

Probably no care taken to control stocheometric ratio (lambda =1) of air vs fuel during rapid throttle angle change.

I think most, if not all, real engines run 12-into-4 equal length headers - 12 into 1 probably reduces the pressure pulses to a level where they are unusable. It may make a little more sense on a scale model, where the headers are extremely short and therefore tuned to unrealistically high RPMs

Well it's V12, even if miniature. It's balanced by default, only a factory defects and designed precision screw this up.

In the old days, they used to play tunes on the engine.. this one seems to be able to do it as well.

Not sure about the curves but I would think with it being sohc and revving to 11k, 5-6bhp and similar torque in lbs ft

@@mikeh2006 Torque is HPx5252/rpm. So torque would be just less than half of HP at 11000 rpm. So if makes 6HP at 11000, torque is a bit less than 3 LB-FT.

@paulogden7417 I just went off the theory that sohc usually produce similar torque figures in n/a engines. I haven't done any of the calculations though. Just guessing.

i would think its gotta be 4 to 8 HP right? im so curious also. probably very little torque though. big HP at high RPMs

Least expensive choice.

Why?

You’re joking, right?

sounds like a chainsaw.

it only sounds that way because it has no exhaust manifolds/extractors to combine the cylinders

Damn... I wish MY lawnmower sounded like that!

PIN OF SHAME

The straight 6 and the V12 are the only engines that have a natural perfect balance.
