 Matt-

I say... use 3 - RX8 P ports arranged so each is at it's correct location
for a planetary reduction unit that doubles as the forward mount and each
motors shaft attached to a planet (planets stationary of course) Then you
could turn a 108 inch prop really slow.

Way back when I used to fantasize about building a Lionheart this way.
It's only time and money... neither of which I have.

Chris,
How would you keep engine #2 & #3 from the gear set while starting #1?
I'm having a hard time seeing this.

Regards,
Norm Parmley
