Paul;

  I am planning on building a T-51 and I would like to use a rotary
engine. However, I am afraid that all of the rotary engines I am familiar
with are too heavy. I am hoping that there is something that you are aware
of that I am not. They are currently using the Rotax 912 and 914 engines. I
would like to use an engine at 200 lbs or less, but I do not know what is
available in a rotary, if anything, that will fit that description. I get
nowhere with Diamond, they bought out Mid West, and I am too old to want to
wait for Freedom-Motors. Any suggestions.

Thanks,
Mark

Nothing available right at the moment.

Once it has been fully developed, would a single-rotor engine like Richard
Sohn's fill the bill for this and still come in under 200 lbs.?

Steve Sprunger

Yes I think so.

How do I find out about Richard Sohn's engine. Does he have a website or an email address.
