Hi Paul,

I have never had one of those model airplane engines.

Jim Mederer

Obviously Nitto was taking advantage of your booth :)
Perhaps you should ask the booth manager about it :)
It certainly was a big draw to your booth on Saturday.

Paul and Jim,

With my wife's help I am able to tell you a little more about Nitto.
Their web site:
http://pine.zero.ad.jp/nitto/

Basically you will see two small Wankel engines, both 11.97cc displacement, weighing 923 grams.
Engine on left is for mounting in a helicopter, one on right for an airplane.
Price converts to about $600

Looks like they sell several different mounting kits for helicopters as well as a nice muffler system.

Contact Nitto at nitto@pine.zero.ad.jp
if you have any questions.

A PDF file from their site, attached.

Mr. Mederer ... keep up the good work.
I used to call you on the phone back in the early 70s when I had my new RX-3 and was dreaming up all kinds of crazy ideas for the Wankel engine.  I have several versions of your excellent sales \ information catalogs.  Looks like the current one is backordered ?

A big deep bow to my wife for finding and translating this info.

Matane and domo arrigato !
