A 2ltr 4 cyl 2 stroke 200hp that is used to power the Martin Jetpack the deltahawk diesel new improved model The Honda 1750cc 4cyl 4stroke turbocharged that is fitted to a personal watercraft. did not look to hard to convert for aircraft use.
Guest ozzie Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 couple more this is a small backyard development of a 100hp at the prop turboprop engine. plus a modified version by Valley Engineering of a 2cyl v4 industrial engine that is simple and cheap
