Master of the understatement, you are!

I just got offered an almost complete Q2 project for less, including a

Rob,
The web site is: www.hexatronengineering.com/ It
may seem pricey, but, it's in line with a HKS700 or Verner
etc. I want a 4 stroke--my weedwacker has convinced me of
that. It has a fedec--one lever throttle, fuel injection.

Replied by charlieh88 on topic Q1_Aircraft: Engines

Hey Guy's I am hopeing that someone in here might know where I might
get a rotary engine and maybe some info on them. I would like to
think about putting one on my Q1. I have thought about a 12a rotary
from a rx7 and strip it down remove the intake and replace it with 2
motorcycle carbs, removing anything else I can.
What does everyone think? Any help would be helpful
Thanks
Charlie
