I haven't seen any response on this list to the article that Paul Lamar
posted a couple days ago (below).  I'm very interested in objective
discussion of merits and flaws, and there hasn't been much on the Rotary
Engines list.   Has anyone read it?  Any opinions?

Thanks,  Michael

While there are some electrical engineers on this list, most of us have
trouble charging a battery.
I can get a grip on how most of it works, but I have not enough
understanding to even ask an intelligent
question. Then if you did understand it, there would be the skill involved
to build it without incinerating anything with a soldering tip. Then you
would be putting it in your airplane and testing it. No matter how long it
ran on the ground, it is a test. Every flight is a test flight.

It would be much easier if electricity was a liquid that had to be plumbed
about from one place to the next, and even better if it was red. This would
alarm folks of a problem, like a cut finger. Perhaps a red stain would point
out a potential problem, while a puddle the size of a dime would ground the
plane until repairs were made.

There is a level of trust you can have when a new piece that has been well
tested, comes out of the package with the new clean wires, and pages of
directions that is just not available, when you come up out of the cellar
with the still smoking controller you have just assembled.

If you have trouble remembering your emergency plan with your wife screaming
her lungs out, 8 inches from your ear, due to her unnatural fear of
stationary propeller blades. Then you know that the surplus East German GPS
you got for $10.00 is going to keep saying "Nearest what" when you poke the
red button.

The attraction is cost, and we all feel that pain. If you build one or
better yet 6 of them, build also a test stand and cycle the dog poop out of
them for a good 6 months. At Western Electric they did awful things to
devices under power, and expected them to last 40 years. A good plan for
aircraft stuff too.

This is just my opinion. I could be completely wrong.

Tracy makes a nice controller.
