Adrian,
I built a ThorpT18C (conv wing) with a rotary engine.  The folding wing
is wonderful.  With the wings folded I rented hanger space for $50/month
for the last twelve years.  I spent three years and $7,800 (1991
dollars) installing the rotary.

Is it flying Terry? Send pictures. Can I come up and see it?

First and second flight were in 1994.  No it is not flying.  I have just
started work on it again.

Nice Cowl Terry.

BEAUTIFUL!

It looks like a greyhound!

I'll bet you get a lot of people thinking it's a turboprop, especially
with the different way a rotary sounds.
