Matt, as I've said before this is very interesting, and having campaigned with the MVVS 160 this far and away a better more powerful setup. the MVVS would be lucky to turn a 17x10N at 9000 and not blow bottom end bearings every 40 flights.


I do have a question though. do you think there's provision for extending the prop shaft away from the cylinder some more (thrust washer extension or somesuch). The one thing that I've found hard to do in most circles is hide the biggger head and spark plug cap into a nice cowl. If I could move the engine aft I'm sure it'd open up a few more possibilities in the "sleek" department.
