The Engine
The engine, the famous Vedeneyev M14, is a nine-cylinder geared radial engine. In the normal "P" version, it produces 360 hp+. The "PF" version produces 400 hp+.
The M14 has oil and fuel systems that are completely functional at all attitudes and power settings, and a fully automatic mixture control. The geared engine spins a 100", three-blade, composite propeller turning at two-thirds the engine RPM while producing maximum horsepower and thrust at all power settings.
Some versions of the M14P are used to power light-weight generating plants and are expected to run for 20,000 hours without maintenance. This gives you an indication of the engine's superior reliability.
