hey Paul, in running the rotary engine on its side, I was unclear
that was my fault, it is not a Mazda but I was referring to the
2 Sachs 295's I have. They are two stroke rotary's, all oil is mixed
in the fuel.
I want to make new end plates and stack them vertically to power a
small single seat helicopter. If all goes well with the fuel
injection boards and programmable ignition system on it I will then
attempt to make new cases for water cooling to see how much hp I can
get out of these little rotary's.
I figure that the rotors being on their sides could cause a problem
that is why I asked.

Mazda The cooling oil drain backs will not work right and the lower
rotor will fill with cooling oil causing a static and dynamic
imbalance.

2 stroke mode is AKA charge cooled.
Using them in the 2 stroke mode is doomed to failure. The big problem
is the rotor bearing and apex seal heat. You need to oil cool them both
for high
continuous power. Hard to do when vertical. Best put a bevel gear in
there somewhere.
Lots of history on this.
