thank you for this real world example of my last post.. it's lovely when the slovenly masses oblige.:thumb:
psst.. I've been running aircraft rotories at 90% full load for over 400 hrs with no loss of compression, (No, piston engine can make that claim at 1/2 the hrs in.. ),no ' puked seals ' odd that..hmm, oh wait I forgot, I
CAN tune.. :loser1:
No piston engine can claim anything close the power to weight ratio, L to power ratio, or size to power ratio a rotory can.
and last but not least, my favorite; the piston engine for automobiles, develop in the pre industrial revolution, ( 1769 to be exact), for use with steam power.. so that puts your technology inline with leather working and stone masonry as some of the few remaining 'technologies' from the 18th Century still around. No wonder you mullet heads love em, they ARE that simple..
