Hi Paul

I've been interested in the Velocity aircraft for some time, and especially considering the Rotary engines. http://www.velocityaircraft.com/airplane-models-vtwin.html

I am not up to speed as they say on these engines, but any thing has to be better than the 1940 technologies still used in most aircraft built today.

What Rotary engine build do you think is best for the Velocity twin design. I don't particularity want to build the whole aircraft, but retrofitting it to the rotary instead.
I realize this is a new design, and there is only one plane flying right now, so I have time to learn more.  Perhaps I get a single and retrofit it first, until the twins become more available.


Best Regards,
Robert Thresher

Pushers work best with a 13B or RX8 turbo. Solves the muffler problems.
Coax muffler is not practical due to length limitations.

BTW are you interested in buying a quarter acre lot with power and phone
on Hewentthata Way?
