Richard Harris Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I just had to share this. My friend Martin brought up his OD/ built inline twin mills with a total capacity of 0.4cc. He had it on a test stand and ran it t show me, abslutely brilliant engineering! He is ging to build a model to fly it in, I tried my very hardest to get him to put it into an autogyro....but he just wouldnt have it Here is a short video Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Hargreaves - Moderator Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Superb.....& it holds its tune perfectly too. That engine would go really nicely in a Vic Smeed Mam'selle.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly P Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Now that would make an interesting thing to put on a stand at a modelling exhibition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowerman Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Lovely Job, wish I had the equipment and skill. Fingers and knuckles getting very close to yhe prop ! Yes, I know Im a picky old so and so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Totally awesome. I'd like to have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lima Hotel Foxtrot Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Lovely, absolutely lovely, piece of engineering. However - and I hate to be the one to say this - naked finger flicking? Standing in the plane of the prop arc? Moving a running engine around with other people nearby? Tsk, tsk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolstonFlyer Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Very nice engine but I was expecting him to cut his fingers/knuckles at any moment.I wonder, would the the whole thing fly off with much force if he let go of that test stand?Edited By WolstonFlyer on 05/03/2013 20:47:40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
