     We have several people on here building one rotor engines. What engine weight
     are you allowed?

     Paul Lamar

Good evening Paul,

 I intended to power the aircraft with a 2.0 L Type 4 (Porshe) motor and have in fact built two with homemade redrives. I expect
these engines will put out a maximum of 100 hp with 75 hp available for cruise. The all up wet weight is 226 lbs. including a
76" wooden prop which is a little heavier than I hoped.

 The aircraft is designed for engines up to 200 lbs. so I am a bit nose heavy. Seems to me the one rotor is perhaps the only
water cooled engine that will come in around the numbers I need, 100 hp max and <200lbs. FWF.

 I have Tracy's book and subscribe to his newsletter.

 Thanks for your response, I look forward to being on the list.

Regards,
Scott Theiss
