Re: Valin Thorn's info on the Theilert
engine
I can see two problems with this
engine. One is that it is not yet flying, and we all share a certain
skepticism about unproven engines. Granted they seem to be doing OK with
their 135hp model, but 135ph and 310hp are quite different
critters.
The second problem is
weight. At a whopping 625 pounds, I don't know how you'd achieve proper
c.g. in a Legacy, or in a lot of other aircraft, for that matter.
