Tracy,
 
At the risk of being the victim your next reply (it was a classic BTW), how much oil would you guess is in the redrive at any one time when running.  I'm working on the oil containment system for the single rotor, and it's not going to hold more than about 3 quarts.  Since I'm cutting the oil volume kinda short, I was wondering how much will be pulled in, and held by the redrive when it's running. 
 
BTW, the oil system on the Kolb will be very different, but you'll have to wait a bit for details. 
 
Cheers,
Rusty (covered in aluminum chips)
