Yes, all good points, Jeff. I have thought of all of these. The rotec
weighs 270 and is rated at 150 hp...similar to the lyc; supposedly would
have more torque based on larger diam prop, eng design, and the redrive.
Parts would be an issue for sure. More research is needed. :)

Craig,
I had thought of the Rotec also. Beautiful engine!!! eck of a good price on them earlier this year. Seems that MAM had cooling issues or something with the one they built. But then again that was the 110 HP model. I am thinking that that Rebel went to Austrailia maybe.

Yes, all good points, Jeff.

I like the looks of the radial, but still prefer the Lyc for many other
reasons. But used to wonder if it was possible to make a radial type cowl,
similar to the Renegade, that would fit on the Rebel with a Lyc. Could the
Rotec Rebel cowl be adapted for a Lyc? Probably would have great cooling
with that bigger inlet...

I haven't heard of that one coming this far south Keith but there is
another, based in Darwin at least until recently, that is flying with a
Rotec. The builder/owner, who is also a native of Tasmania, visited me
here earlier in the year.

Of course, the Rotec came from Australia in the first place.
