Hi guys , Im a new to Rotary engines and enjoy all the interaction from
this site.
I have a Bingo aircraft fitted with a HKS 700E 60 HP engine that lasted
136 hours, lifter and camshaft failure!
and Im starting to think a engine without these would be ideal!
I would be looking at a 90 or 100 HP engine.
Can any one point me in the right direction?
I live in Western Australia so a little distance from most of you but
with the internet make life easier.
thanks for your time.

Well Brent some people have built 100 HP one rotor Mazda engines but
I think you need to go to Melbourne to find some rotor head
racers that can build you one. A one rotor with cast iron end housing
might be two heavy.
One or two European companies are working on two rotor 100HP rotaries.
Nothing for sale yet. There are two 50 HP European one rotor engines.
AIXRO and Austro Engines.
Are you out at Serpentine?
We have a few in Perth building and flying rotaries you can
talk to. Ian Beadle is in Bin Doon. Ian is flying a RV6 powered
by a RX8 engine. Steve-Izett is working on a Mazda rotary powered
Glassair.
