Founded in 2007, Austro Engine offers innovative solutions in jet fuel piston engines, AE300/AE330 (E4 Series) for Diamond Aircraft‘s DA62, DA42-VI and DA40 NG models as well as a proven line of rotary engines, AE50R and AE110R (R Series), for various UAV and APU applications. Since November 2008 Austro Engine holds a POA (Production Organisation Approval). In October 2009 Austro Engine has received the DOA (Design Organisation Approval) from EASA. With the E4-Series of heavy fuel piston engines, Austro Engine is one of the leading jet fuel piston engine producer in General Aviation. The E4-Series stands for safe and reliable global operations with more than 4 million flight hours from more than 4,500 engines (Status May 2024). Austro Engine products have proven their outstanding capabilities in versatile operation profiles all over the globe, generating countless stories of success for our partners. On a retrospective view, the company is certainly proud of having set new standards in engine reliability, quality and operational efficiency for our customers, whose appreciated involvement in continuous product and service improvements have been vital and the key to success. Being energized by achievements, Austro Engine is striving to further enhance operator’s experiences. Engineering Innovation Innovation and industry leadership mean saying „no” to doing things the way it’s been done before. With Dia- mond’s proprietary Austro Engine jet fuel piston engines, that means no manual mixture control, no magneto ignition, no manual priming, no prop control lever, no hard starting – hot or cold, no manual runup tests, no shock cooling, no cowl flaps, no power calculations based on rpm and manifold pressure, in short, less work and zero guesswork – more efficiency in every regard. The redundant full authority digital engine control of Austro engines takes the guesswork out of powerplant man- agement and offers simplified operation, on the ground and in the air. There is only one power lever per engine and actual power is displayed in percent power on the fully integrated Garmin G1000 NXi. Annunciations are clear and accurate with resettable and recorded audio and visual cautions and warnings that let you focus outside. Maintenance on Austro engines is performed much the same as with most modern engines today, by connecting a computer and downloading recorded data including any present fault codes. Pre-emptive diagnostics detect issues before they develop into problems and that enhances safety and gives more peace of mind. On top of all that, Austro‘s engines burn much less fuel, have extended maintenance intervals, use unleaded as well as cheaper and globally available jet fuel and run more smoothly and quietly. Propulsion Innovation Product Portfolio AE110R (110 HP) AE50R (50 HP) R Series - Rotary Engines AE300 (168 HP) AE330 (180 HP) E4 Series - Jet Fuel Piston Engines Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 AE300/AE330 Facts & Specifications General The AE300 is a four cylinder two liter piston engine, burning jet fuel (Jet A-1, Jet A, TS-1, RT, No. 3 Jet Fuel (Chi- na), JP-8) with 168 HP / 123.5 kW. The engine is controlled by an active electronic system with integrated single power lever design. The AE330 is the most powerful heavy fuel engine in its class, based on the successful and reliable AE300. It provides more power than the AE300 at the same weight. Great fuel efficiency, reliability and easy operation make the AE330 the best aviation engine of today and the future. Reliability State of the art technology ensures the highest level of safety and lower fuel costs. Modern common rail tech- nology provides the highest levels of reliability. With a redundant EECU system the engine is failsafe. Jet fuel use The AE300 / AE330’s jet fuel certification makes it easier to operate worldwide than the more common Avgas engine, since Avgas is hard to come by in certain regions and often costs many times the price of jet fuel. Performance The AE300 produces 168 HP / 123.5 kW and the AE330 180 HP / 132 kW for take off and maximum cruise power. The low vibration level and the single power lever design improve the engine operation comfort and take a lot of workload from the pilot. This makes the engine the ideal powerplant for flight schools, private pilots and even special mission aircraft.
