Now THAT'S COOL!! Quite the technical achievement as well as doing 99.99% of the creating and machining and it sounds pretty stout too! :D :D

I want to see someone put something like that on an R/C BT or Texan. That would be too cool to hear an engine that runs at the right RPMs on one of them.

The Rotec radials built here in Victoria started out when the guys were building scale radials for models, and it was suggested that they just 'scale 'em up'!
