no way in hell thats a rotary, it doesn't even sound like one

[aaroncake]

Having seen it with my own eyes, I assure you that it is a single rotor made of 13B parts. It's put together by Atkins.

[Quentonwall]

@aaroncake so its a 12a with some 13b parts on it

[aaroncake]

@Quentonwall No, it's a half 13B shaft, 13B housing and rotor, and 13B end plates.

looks to me like it runs on propane

[aaroncake]

Yes. That's what it says in the video description.

@Quentonwall mmhm... this would be a 6b

[Quentonwall]

@Tj1056 ok awesome thanks for clariflying :) i always thought it was single rotor

[Tj1056]

@Quentonwall 12a is a 2 rotor... its 1146cc (573cc x2)

[Quentonwall]

@Tj1056 well usually the single rotors are the 12a's and the 13b's are two rotors so i was just saying it was a 12a with 13b parts on it

[Tj1056]

@Quentonwall how did you come up with the idea that a 13b single rotor is a 12a?

[Bamchucknorris]

@hvguy Runs on propane, so it doesn't sound as violent as a J port 13b w/ webers LOL

[douro20]

I understand that this makes 40hp on propane.
