I picked up my single rotor 12A project over the weekend and I am interested
to know how many guys out there are working on or have single rotor engines.
I know most of you are interested in 2 or 3 rotor engines and I do not want
to bog down the list, but I do have some questions if there is anyone out
there with a single rotor engine.

I noticed that Richard made reference to his single rotor yesterday in an
email to the list.

Yes, Jeff, I had my single rotor running for two years now.
It is a p-port with compound AL side housings. I had been bogged down for a
while with building a house, but  I am slowly getting back to it again now.
The side housings so far are prof-of-principle configuration, meaning, not
flyable. This is going to change next with castings being used,
accommodating final design features.
For the 12A based version, the FF weight is 170lb.
I will certainly try to answer your questions if I can.
