Superb work! Will it burn petrol or methanol?

Thanks, it looks interesting. I just sent them an email.

Thank you for your comments! I use OS "F". The battery is a 5 cell Nimh 3300mAh in parallel. But there are almost 0.3V losses in the wires and switches and the voltage drops too fast during use. I'm quite interested with this glow driver, but it's not the same price: Microsens Electronics -...

No, only scale models, for over 30 years. I had a few flying lessons on a Cessna, but that was a long time ago, before I started a small family...

Hi, One year after the first start-up, the first flight took place: Finally there are 3 small SH (Just engines) carburettors with Y-pieces to feed each 2 opposite cylinders. However, not all cylinders were working in flight. The heating of the spark plugs is not terrible with 1 Nimh battery...

Thanks, Yes, the fuel is methanol with 18% oil and the lubrication of the lower engine is only due to the leaks in the rings. The engine has already burned a lot of fuel for my carburetor tests and the connecting rods did not take any clearance. For the glow plugs, I simply have a battery of 5...

Now I'm waiting for the right moment to do a test flight with an easy plane that doesn't risk much. The plane has a 2.50m wingspan. Bruno

Some parts. I had started to make 2 of them. The second one is much less advanced because I wanted to make a different crankshaft for it. Finally, the second one may become a 4 or 6 cylinder flathead.

Hello, I mentioned it in my presentation as a new member, here it is in more details. The design is totally personal but uses solutions from WTengines, especially for the crankshaft. I designed this engine under SW to equip a future Caudron CR714. The advantage of this plane is that its engine...

Thank you for your comments. My machine equipment has evolved with each engine. For the last one: Cazeneuve CT200 Mikron WF2/3 DCM And the last one to arrive, HURCO BMC40 : The 3 machines have been retrofitted with linuxcnc. I will create a post to better present the V6. Bruno

Hello, A little new on this forum but I'm working on my 3rd engine. The first one, the single cylinder from cad jung's plans : the second one, a 3 cylinder of only 15cc, with solutions inspired by the plans of the 3 cylinder of wtengines, And the third one, still under development, a 90cc...
