Just add 5 more and have a B-36 type aircraft with 224 max hp.  Could be either a pusher or a puller.  HMmmmm.  Wonder about fuel burn and bomb bay uses.

 So is this something that you single rotor guys would be interested in??

Hi Bill,

 

The UAV Engines folks make some very tempting engines, but they won't sell any for manned flight, so it's just a tease.  This particular engine is only 38 hp, so it's not going to do much for any of us.  Now if they were selling the whole UAV and I could add a few servos... :-)  

 

Thanks for the auction link.  I'll certainly watch it to see if this thing sells.  If it was a lot cheaper, I'd buy it just as a conversation piece, but my art budget is way lower than this :-)

 

Rusty
