  • Cox model engines are used to power small model airplanes, model cars and model boats. They were in production for more than 60 years between 1945 and 2006. The business is named for founder Leroy M. Cox. He started L.M. Cox Manufacturing Co. Inc, which later became Cox Hobbies Inc., then Cox Products, before being sold to Estes Industries, when it became Cox Models. On February 7, 2009, Estes Industries stopped producing Cox engines and sold all of their remaining inventory – mainly spare parts – to several private buyers from Canada and the US. One of the new owners of the remaining Cox engine and parts inventory has launched a website with an online store. Millions of engines were produced. They became the most common 1/2A Class 0.049 cubic inch engine in the world, and probably still are today. Although the production of the engines ceased some years ago, engines made as far back as the 1950s are still sold "as new" and are in abundance on eBay worldwide. (en)
  • Les moteurs Cox sont des moteurs à combustion interne utilisés dans le modélisme. La société L. M. Cox Manufacturing Co., Inc. est fondée en 1945 pour être revendue en 1996 à Estes qui cessera définitivement la production en 2009. Lorsqu'ils ont cessé de produire leurs moteurs, le stock de pièces restant a été revendu à un acheteur privé Canadien, et recommence à produire des pièces, Cox International. Pendant plus d'un demi-siècle, ils ont propulsé bateaux et voitures, mais le domaine dans lequel ils ont été le plus utilisé est celui de l'aéromodélisme, surtout dans le vol libre et le vol circulaire.Des millions de ces moteurs ont été produits et vendus dans le monde entier, et ils sont devenus et restent les moteurs .049 (0,8 cm³) de classe 1/2A les plus utilisés dans le monde. Même si la production de moteurs a cessé depuis peu, ils continuent à être vendus en abondance, parfois encore à l'état neuf[réf. nécessaire]. (fr)
