Default RE: BME Xtreme update

Time for a further update on the BME "Xtreme" engines.

I have removed the 110 Xtreme from the plane I had it on, and am starting extensive bench tests for tuned exhausts. This will take about 2 months. in it's place is a '106" hybrid engine, using the 110 jugs/pistons and the 102 crankshaft assembly. Power is up about 300-400 rpm over the old 102, or equal to or slightly better than a DA100. So far, a 28-10 mejzlik is seeing 6500-6600 with 1 gallon through the new cylinders/pistons, and I expect 100+ more rpm after the engine gets broken in again.

This "hybrid" is the same as the "106' that Branwell mcClory and several others tested before BME finalized the new engines size at 110cc's. It's also the same engine that will be available as an "Upgrade" from BME for owners of the 102 "evo" series of engines. Those who have "105 evo" engines will be able to upgrade to full "XTREME" status with the installation of the Xtreme jugs and pistons.

Please contact BME for further information
