The one I have on my most recent Gyro is redlined at 5200 rpm and typically
cruises the 724 lb ship at 41-4200 rpms.
Sorry it's not a rotory, but here's a pic of the ship and engine...

That is interesting Gary. A couple of questions if you don't mind.
How heavy was your Mazda Gyro and how many gallons an hour do you burn
in your new gyro? Is there a difference in top speeds?
What is the PSRU ratio in this one and prop dia and pitch?
It is nice to find a person with experience in both.
So the EJ22 had two valves per cylinder or four valves per cylinder
with one cam per head? Or was it one cam in the block? If I sound
confused I am :-)
