Smallest petrol engine

(1/4) > >>

Bernd:
Ok guys here's a challenge. Who will build a working model of this on Madmodder?

And who won't go blind trying to do it?

Bernd

benchmark:
hmm , replace watch batteries within 6 years? well lets wait and see. Experience has shown that mechanical devices are more care demanding prone to failure  if neglected than electrical ones.

NickG:
if used as a pace maker, where do the exhaust gases go?! :lol: Imgaine the scene at the petrol station, excuse me, but I'm going to die if you fill that 4 x 4 before I top up my pacemaker!

Bogstandard:
I see UK engineering is still at the forefront.

I am wondering how long it will be before the process is given away to other countries, just like we did with the jet engine and other things in the past, and getting nothing in return, and the countries who were given, or even stole it, benefitted the most.

We are too stupid with things like this in this country.

BTW Bernd, you've just volunteered to be the one to copy it.

Bernd, John's into magnetos just now. Tell him you'll do it if he can knock up a magneto for it, to scale  :D

Seriously, though, it looks an amazing bit of kit. I wonder how noisy it is.
