Source text - English .15. This is the second-largest generally available nitro type engine that is available for sedan R/C cars. Most ready to run (RTR) car or truck kits come equipped with a.15-size engine. Although the larger displacement would lead you to believe the.15 engines are more powerful, there are some.12-size engines that are more powerful than many.15-size engines, which indicates they are more efficient, have more tuning capability and/or larger carburetor openings. Also worthy of noting is that.15 engines are not allowed in large sanctioned races in some countries, which could mean that a car or truck may not be allowed to participate in an organized race, because many race clubs or tracks follow these rules examples. The ".15" refers to the displacement size of the engine in cubic inches, much like a full-size engine. NOTE: Some.15-size engines are "big block" engines, while most are based on the.12-size engine case. "Big block" engines won't fit in most 1/10 scale cars without modifications.
Translation - Spanish .15. Este es el segundo tipo de motor nitro en importancia, que por lo general se puede conseguir para sedánes de radio control. La mayoría de los paquetes de carros y camionetas a escala listos para correr (RTR) que se venden comercialmente para operarlos a control remoto por radiofrecuencia, vienen equipados de fábrica con un motor de cilindrada .15. Aunque el hecho de poseer una mayor cilindrada nos llevaría a pensar que los motores .15 son más potentes, en realidad existen motores en cilindrada .12 con mayor potencia que la mayoría de los motores de cilindrada .15, lo que se explica por su mayor eficiencia, además de que se prestan más para hacerle modificaciones, agrandar el diámetro del carburador, o ambas cosas. Asimismo vale la pena hacer notar que en determinados países está prohibido el uso de motores .15 en ciertas carreras organizadas a gran escala, lo que también significa que un automóvil o camioneta de radio control puede no recibir permiso para participar en una carrera organizada, porque muchos clubes o pistas de carreras respetan también esos reglamentos. El número ".15" se refiere a la cilindrada del motor expresado en pulgadas cúbicas, exactamente como se hace en los motores de automóviles a escala normal. Como nota adicional, conviene saber que algunos motores de cilindrada .15, son lo que se podría denominar motores de "bloque grande", pero a la mayoría de las carrocerías solamente les cabe una carcasa de motores en cilindrada .12. A menos que se le hagan modificaciones, los motores de bloque grande no le quedan a la mayoría de los autos a escala 1/10.

For the last 13 years I've been working for a Mexican publishing house called Mina Editores. My job there is as the main translator for magazines such as Car Audio & Electronics, American Health & Fitness (Maximum Fitness), Vochomania, Tuning Car, etc. Before that, there were other titles in which I worked such as VW Trends, PC Format, Nintendo 64, Import Tuner, and then some. In this period I have translated magazines about: UFO (English, Portuguese, Italian, German and Swedish), weapons (English, Portuguese, Italian), airplanes, medicine, babys (English and Italian), videogames, computers, science, medicine, shiatsu, esoteric, magic and chemistry. As a matter of fact, I am a certified Industrial Chemical Engineer and as such I worked for Celanese Mexicana in R&D, and before that I worked for a paper factory. I learned English when I was 12, the rest of languages were in a need-to-know basis.
