As it has no throttel, it may have been used for free flight or control line (artical I found was a chap in australia in 1957 photed with his plane)

Would be grateful of any history of this

*** Is this the type of engine Nitro_head ? http://www.radiocontrolmodels.co.uk/...h/Page1310.htm
I think I also have one as well tucked away,it is ceratinly a collectors motor.
