techno power radial engines ?
Does anyone know what happened to these radial engines? Out of business or bought out?
I have a one and used it it a stearman but took it out and boxed it up for posterity. Wondered what the value is in this century.

I don't have the experience and don't know it's value, but one of
my members were saying that Technopower radials were not good.
They don't seem to be practical to use. Sorry for not saying good.

The Technopower radials are great engines, when used within their limitations. They are heavy, and relatively low powered. But they are as powerful as the average gas engine of the same weight, and do a fine job on most scale and semiscale biplanes of the right size.
