BME 110Xtreme?
 

Well. It is getting close. I will be ready for the engine in my Sukhoi shortly and I havent heard anything on my engine.

Actually with the exception of Kris I don't know if anybody has heard anything?
Are they being shipped? Are there problems?
Kris if you read this :D how is your engine performing now that it is broken in? Will it still outperform the DA 100?

Thanks.

As of 2 weeks ago, I was number 58 on the list, so I'm getting close now. I can hardly wait, and I'll post what sort of numbers I get with it.

Crash, my Xtreme outperformed the BEST numbers ever posted for a DA100 the first time I flipped the prop. I'm not kidding on this, as it was turning a 28-TWELVE Mejzlik at 6800 rpm, and a DA100 will not turn a 28-TEN mejzlik that fast, even after well broken in. Within 1 hours run time the engine was turning a 28-10 Menz-s in excess of 6250 rpm HOT, and a 27-10 Menz at 6900+, so the engine is at least the equal of the vaunted 3W 106's floating around out there.

I am doing some canister/pipe design trials on the engine at the moment, trying different combinations and playing with it a bit. Space for LONG headers/mufflers was not available in the CA330LX 33% plane, so I pulled the xtreme out of that airframe and put a "106 (102 w/110 jugs) back in the plane. Power numbers for the "hybrid" motor are at least as strong as the best the DA100 has ever had, turning 6500-6600 with a Mejzlik 28-10 with less than one gallon through the new cylinders and pistons.

To say that i am happy with the new engine is at elast an understatement. :)
