This is ;latest video is on VIMEO and in addition to being on youtube
https://vimeo.com/239356745
This video explains why the Wankel is a better aircraft
engine than a piston engine and shows the 1 minute 47 second
test flight last Friday. Time it your self.
BTW There is a really stupid video on youtube
available called "Why the Wankel is dead"
Presented by a clueless juvenile.
Most of what he says is nonsense.
One is.... the Wankel is high in emissions. Thats nonsense.
My 2004 RX8 pases draconian California emissions test
with flying colors.
YouTube promotes this video for some strange reason.
Perhaps this kid and youtube are wacko environmentalist.
It really pisses me off after watching a pro Wankel video and then they
want you to watch this stupid one next. Give him a bad comment.

If you don't mind me asking what indicated airspeed is he maintaining
through the climb.
Jacob Sturges
You can see the air speed on the left side of the instrument panel.
I just got off the phone with Dan and we talked about the take off.
It jumped up to about 130 or 150 kts immediately. Dan noticed that and
he felt
that was not the best rate of climb speed so he pulled back on the stick to
slow it to about 115 knots. We are not recording air speed directly
other than
the gopro in the cockpit that so this is a guess
on both our parts..
There is a pitch trim knob on the instrument panel so the force
on the stick is never the same :-)
