Last night I came across a company that seems to have developed a more
efficient ignitor and fuel injector.  Does anyone have experience with this
company.  They also claim use of ethanol and diesel in the rotary and other
engines. They seem to be doing some work with the army on drones as well.

Those are glow plugs and I suspect they are spiking the fuel with
nitromethane just like your model airplane engine fuel :)
It is/was called Glo Fuel as in "glow plug fuel". In my younger days
I was in the DC-RC club with doctor Walter Good the father of the
UAV. Nitromethane is too expensive for large scale use.
Glow plugs are standard equipment used for starting almost all diesels.

Be careful. A guy on another rotary list said he sent them $200 some
time ago and has not received anything.
