Rotary engine
I am still on the fence, but would
like to decide what engine to use. I am building a Large wing Velocity,
not the XL. One of the original designers of that version of the plane
recommends that an io-540 250 horse would be the ideal engine. Now
I was thinking of either a 2 rotor that would be turboed to 200+ hp at sl not
at 10K or a NA 3 rotor.
Bob;
I was on that same fence for my SE RG four+
years ago; and opted for the NA 20B. But that was before the Renesis.
Now it seems clear to go with turbo Renesis. It will give you maybe 230+
at sea level, no boost, and the beauty is you can have that power at high
altitude with the turbo. You can get a new Renesis for the price of a
used/overhauled 20B.
