Unique 65-hp, six-cylinder radial.

The Sadler 6-cylinder radial engine with a four-cycle, dual electronic ignition with direct drive unit. Made with up-to-date materials and using modern computer numerically designed machinery, the engine has redundancy (12 spark plugs), low rpm, minimum vibration, low fuel consumption and low noise levels.

The engine was installed in an Avid Model C where it produced a cruise speed of 85 mph, a 1,250 fpm rate of climb at gross weight, and a service ceiling above 12,500 feet. The engine, including electric starter and alternator, weighed 121.4 pounds and the all-up weight including engine mount, exhaust manifold and propeller was 162 lbs.
