      Thanks for sharing this Paul. Interesting how the seals and combustion chamber have been reversed from the familiar engine design, so the seals are stationary! It would make a good engine for a light aircraft! Peter.

        Yes, I thought the seals looked better. On the model they still move in and out a little but I imagine the shape could be refined.

        I wonder what the performance is like. Subjectively, the power stroke on rotary engines never seems to capture the power like a piston.

          Interesting video but even better provided a link to "Scarf and Goggles" excellent video of Segraves Golden Arrow land speed record car and others.
