Viking Aircraft Engines Viking 130

Viking Aircraft Engine 130HP injected

All Viking 130 engines use Variable Valve timing and Variable Valve Lift. The 130 is as close to a Honda Fit car engine as possible, retaining all of its modern features.

The Honda based Viking engine technology include 100% liquid cooling, computerized engine management, networked engine monitor capability, digital ECU, variable intake cam timing, gasoline direct injection fuel system and variable intake valve lift.

The engines are Evans liquid cooled without pressure and run at only 2/3 Honda rated RPM redline. Only one wire and a fuel pump to connect for start. Direct injected, no complicated fuel return system needed.

The 2016 Honda Fit engine manual cover all engine specifics. Cowlings, engine mounts and propeller available along with all other accessories. The Viking has no external exhaust pipes, just a muffler.

The engines are ready to bolt to the airframe as shipped

Viking Aircraft Dragonfly / Dart Industries Dragonfly

Designed by Robert J. Walters and winner of the Outstanding New Design Award at Oshkosh 1980, the Dragonfly is another canard-configured composite homebuilt in the same vein as the Quickie and VariEze. First flying on 16 June 1980 (N5WN) with two-place side-by-side seating under a bubble canopy, the Dragonfly is powered by a 56 hp 1600cc HAPI/VW engine. The intention of the aircraft is to provide builders with a project that is inexpensive to build and also inexpensive to operate on a readily available engine. The wing and canard are built as a single piece in a jig and the job can be accomplished in a normal two-car garage. The cockpit width is 43 inches, like that of a Cessna 172. A molded canopy was selected to avoid the soapbubble effect of a free-blown canopy. A typical 140-mph cruise burns gas at the rate of 45 mpg. The propeller used is a Great American, with a 40-inch pitch and 52-inch diameter.

Available in three under-carriage options as Mk.I, II or III.

By 1998, out of 2000 plans or kits that had been sold, about 500 were finished.

This 2 place composite design can be built from plans or can be quick built using pre-fab parts.
