Design and development
The TBM 11 engine is a twin-cylinder four-stroke, horizontally-opposed, {{convert|1085|cc|cuin|1|abbr=on}} displacement, air-oil-cooled, gasoline engine design, with a clutch and damper reduction drive with reduction ratios of 3.55:1, 3.2:1 and 2.8:1. It employs dual electronic ignition and produces {{convert|98|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} at 7100 rpm, with a compression ratio of 11.5.
The engine is based upon a BMW motorcycle engine design.{{cite web|url =http://www.takeoff-ul.de/motoren.htm|title = Motoren|access-date = 19 April 2018|author=Take Off GmbH |work = www.takeoff-ul.de}}
The engine specifications carry a manufacturer's warning that the engine has not been tested, nor is certified for aircraft use, and that neither BMW nor Take Off accept any liability for aircraft use or consequential damages.{{cite web|url =http://www.takeoff-ul.de/pdf%27s/Description_TAKEOFF_engine_02-2006.pdf|title = two-cylinder four-stroke engine with spur gear and centrifugal clutch |access-date = 19 April 2018|author=Take Off GmbH |work = www.takeoff-ul.de|year=2006}}
