Reds Racing is happy to announce that the new 721 SCUDERIA GEN2 engine is now available. Due to the success of 721 Scuderia GEN1 engine in recent competitions we have decided to maintain the main features unchanged and improve the carburetor with new materials to increase reliability. The new carb features a new double grab screw joint link to facilitate positioning and fitting with the servo link. To satisfy all our customers requests we have decided to release the new Scuderia Gen2 in 2 different color combinations.
NEW GENERATION ENGINE
The new 721 S Scuderia features high reliability, tuning stability and great fuel mileage. Combined with specific technical changes in the porting and new materials, this 7 port engine features higher power and better fuel efficiency compared to any REDS engine released from REDS.
The GEN2 engine features a new carburetor with new materials to increase reliability and tuning stability, in particular the insulator bushing has been improved with a higher strength material. Furthermore, it features a new double grab screw joint link to facilitate positioning and fitting with the servo link.
721 Scuderia comes with a DLC Coated crankshaft and backplate for improved engine durability. The crankshaft can last approximately 3 times more than a coventional steel crankshaft thanks to the extreme hardness of the diamond coating. Even the conrod life is lengthened about 50%.
UP TO 3TIMES CRANK LIFE | UP TO |
The new engine is hand-tuned with a silicone-filled, balanced and tuned crankshaft by M. Rossi. Every single engine is hand inspected and compression checked inside REDS Racing headquarters by Mario and Marco Rossi to achieve the highest quality standards. This is core to the values that makes Reds Racing engines different from any other brand on the market.
