http://www.parajet.com/index.php?id=171   looks like Aixro-rotary is going
to be available for powered-parachutes....     it will be expensive......!



.....I had a 254cc engine that weighed only 11kg, produced 48 hp at 9000rpm
and was only 130mm wide, front to back. It is an incredible and tiny engine
which produces zero vibration so it's ideally suited to the light weight
airframe of a paramotor.....

EngineDevelopmentReport.pdf   development of supercharged  Aixro
back-pack...  the problems in designing the belt-drive to the 200,000rpm
supercharger from the Aixro are interesting.....

supercharged Aixro.....  superb engineering....
