cleaned out his shop.
It weighs in at 28 lbs, a bit heavy and complicated and I
think a 28 lb flywheel would do it.

Mott Taylor develop a clutch system that that used waffled disk
and steel shot to transfer torque with out transmitting the pulses to
the prop? I think I remember him demonstrating it at Oshkosh
back in 81, but I've sleep several places since then.}:>).
You might be able to adapt something like that to drive the
RD-1.
