Sir,

I may be missing something here,
If the maximum propeller rpm is 2800 .
A single rotor engine with max rpm of 1100 with 37 KW @  8750 rpm.
With a reduction drive of 3:1 one could achieve maximum propeller rpm of 2800.

Why can't this engine with low HP but with high rpm be used on the Parsons auto gyro ( on YouTube https://youtu.be/QOwb8QRHrMY )which is currently using the 12a Mazda rotary or can it ?

Best Regards
Zahid


37 KW is only 50 HP. A Mazda 12A 2 rotor makes at least 150 HP.
Gyro's, like everything else fly on HP. It probabbly takes a minimum
of 110 HP to fly a man powered gyro.
