Anybody know what the rotary engine refered to as an "814" used in the
Sorrell Hyperlite featured in this month's Experimenter is??
Described as being 75 Hp and weighing in at 115 lbs.... The pictures
show it as a twin rotor engine. Plugs are on the left as installed in
the aircraft, exhaust on the right. Looks to be all aluminum.
Is this an NSU or Sachs rotary of some kind??? I was also
curious about the Suzuki motor cycles introduced in about '76 or '77
...The RE5.... I never heard much about the..... are they a viable
power plant in the 50 hp range??
