217...210 etc SV should be the number for fuel consumption in gramms per HP

Protor Team, What does your engine weigh? What do they cost in Russia?

150 HP VAZ-416 engine weights complete (dry) 125 kg [275 pounds]
Costs here $2,500
I hope to visit factory soon to bring fresh facts from them about their
engines. Will put them to the website.
In fact its a pity they froze the 70 HP engine production - need financing
for that.

You might consider selling the helicopter in the US without engine
as an experimental kit. That way people could put a Mazda in over here as the cost
and weight are about the same. Mazda parts are readily available here and low cost.

Instant export business for you as this is a large market. You could probably
sell dozens.
