Paul, is anyone working on a one rotor . Suitable for LSA applications
 other than Richard.
 Anyone contemplating a 16x one rotor.

 Clifton,
 Originally I had planned a four place a/c with a two rotor to replace a
 150hp O-320. I read about single rotors but never paid too much attention.
 As needs and desires have changed, I am now working towards a 120hp single
 rotor p-port and aiming for the weight to match an 0-200 for an extreme
 STOL. Hopefully by the time I'm ready for the engine someone will have done
 all the hard (smart guy) work.

     I have a single rotor 13B built by the late Lou Ross.  It has his
reduction drive 3.17:1 turning a 68 inch IVO magnum electrically adjustable
prop.  Custom exhaust with muffler, and Ellison throttle body.  It has run,
probably 8 hours or so, and by Lou's calculations made around 120 hp at 6000
rpm.  Probably a few months of installation remaining before I attempt to
start it in my Q200.

With a 3.17:1 PSRU it may well indeed produce 120 HP or more. Lou was a very
good engineer.

I am contemplating using a one rotor with a Kolb MK3 X.  Sounds great, would love to hear how you put everything together!!
