Arh, nicely side stepped, ethanol.
Produced in NZ via geothermal and hydro electric, made from a waste product of the dairy industry, a carbon go round. We conveniently ignor deisel trucks picking up the milk or the farm fuel usage, ok.
Neils, build one.
Im building my convictions, if for no other reason but to have something a little different out on the track and to show it can be done.
Next is to produce an Autogyro powered by an Opposed Piston Uniflow engine, with counter rotating props but deep intetmeshing like a Kmax helicopter rotor system. Compact and easy using the two joining idler gears.
Out of phase crank forces taken up between the crank throws themselves with each crank assembly controlling an exhaust and and inlet piston. Gears just join the cranks, pistons fire together so forces loading and unloading on the crank and gear assembly are equal. 25 years ago Neils.
