 Fill us in on this Jeff. What is the displacement? Would it work?
 Or is it all pure hype? >>

Displacement is 1060 cc for 2-rotor.  HP is 150 with tuned pipes, non-turbo
and *air* cooled rotor (which requires some sort of pump...not a problem for
ducted fans)  We also looked at charge cooled-intercooled for jet-skis and
the like.  The problem with Moller is he only sees the engine as a means to
get money for the M400 and not a business by itself.  With that approach he
may never do either.  Sad really...and I'm not even bitter.

Jeff Spitzer

That is quite large. Almost as large as a 13B at 1300 cc.
Remarkably light weight as I recall for such a powerful engine.
Refresh my memory on the weight Jeff.
