I don't remember the company, but there is a Russian helicopter powered 
by a three-rotor Lada with aluminum end-housings, which wouldn't handle 
the loads as well as steel housings (they didn't last long at high power 
settings). Lada stopped making the engines.

Another Russian rotary: http://avia.russian.ee/helicopters_eng/ka-56.php

TJ,
  Your wait was over a long time ago.
  Many years ago there was a Rotary powered Gyrocopter flying.
  I believe the owners name was Jim Mayfield or something like that.
  His engine was supplied by Dave Atkins.
  I also heard that it accumulated 1000's of hours as it was used for 
training.
Anyone have more info on this?
  Jim

Whoa now, looks to me like the subject of this email contains a serious
nomenclature discrepancy;

As a former chopper pilot, I was officially designated "Rotorhead"
awhile before Burt invented plastic airplanes.

Y'all are "Wingnuts."
