David,
I'm discussing the single rotor with Roan Ambrose, the chief engineer. He
seems fairly young but knows his stuff - I guess racing is a young mans game
and the racing game is predominately their target clients.

I'm currently negotiating some prices and was wondering if you had dealt
with or knew them - apparently not!

I also looked at the Castlemaine Rod Shop, near Melb, their services are
very comprehensive they also have an Aviation motor and gearbox - of sorts.

I have developed my own bellhousing with Butch a US Engineer, but haven't
found someone to produce it yet - cost effectively. I'm also working with
another engineer looking at the possibility of producing a cost effective,
straight cut gear, planetary, that is more user friendly to adapting to our
unique application. Will have to see what production costs are before I go
much further on this.

Pity your in the IT game and not engineering.

Well the IT game was more of challenge, at the time.

Having said that I do a little bit of engineering design & testing, just
not for a living.
Mt father was a Mechanical & Electrical Engineer, half of his work for
over 30 years was in doing
work for Ansett, unfortunately he died over 12 years ago. So I lost his
expertise, for the more
complex stuff.
