Ben,
Yes, I like that engine a lot and have been talking to them (email).
They are going to have pricing, they said, in Feb for the ultralight
version. The single rotor aviation version was 12K. This eliminated it from
my list. Then December I saw they were advertising the ultralight vesion,
which I'm waiting on a quote. I have to take hexatron engineering to small
claims court to get my deposit back before I spend a whole bunch of money on
an engine. I also will only buy an engine who can deliver and has delivered
engines. That said, I think their engine would be perfect for my
application.

Subject: [Q1_Aircraft] VW engines
All,
I'm searching for engines, at this point, to replace the non-
exsistant hexadyne engine. I have some vw questions. Isn't it a bit
heavy for the hp. Why just use the 1600 if the next size up or two
weighs the same. What about PRSU's. How does the GPlains engines
compare to AeroVee etc. How fast did a Q cruse with a VW, with and
without a prsu? How are they mounted? does one use rubber mounts on the
firewall? Is there any good reference for installation advice for a Q1?
Thanks,
Dave R.

Hexatron NOT--Gotta sue them for my deposit back.
