Have you worked -out all your requirements for the single rotor. It not as simple as it first appears, but not so complicated when it's all said and done.
 
I guess your turning down a RX7 e-shaft and filling the extra holes. 
 
Hi George,
 
I haven't pushed the single rotor project much, because I've been too busy with the RV-3.  I did just buy a complete single rotor engine off Ebay, and will peek inside soon.  I know I have to fill in at least one hole on the shaft, but otherwise it all seems usable.  Seems to be older housings, but I won't know how old until I get inside.  I'm not sure if I'll use this engine in it's entirety, or use the REW housings I already purchased.  It will probably depend on what I find inside. 
 
Cheers,
Rusty (gotta make a new intake for the RV-3 first)
