Hi  i am james mathews

I saw your web sight and would like to join the news letter.

But i have a question regarding installing a single rotor wankle into a
Hummel bird plains build. The plans call for a half VW engine Between 30 and
40 hp at between 90 to 100 lbs in weight. Do you have a sujestion as to
where i can look for information to help me out eg. a 12b mazda rotory with
a single rotor or even a motorcycle rotory engine.

I would be gratefull of any help you could give me.

One other thing parsts must be easy to get and project cost to be about the
same as 13b installation in a larger aircraft

thankyou
jim

It is not promising Jim. The single rotor Mazda is too heavy
for a Hummel Bird designed for a 2 cyl VW.
There is a cart engine in Europe with about that HP.
But it is not cheap.
