  1. A V4 fourstroke is the opposite of a smooth running reciprocating engine. Anyway it's looking good. lifts the aircraft and comes with interesting sound when reving up.

  2. I thought he was crazy taking off in that wind! Finally got it down with no damage. What a beautiful engine. I agree, stick that baby into a P-51D airframe, they would be perfect for each other!

  3. Detlef Kunkel did an amazing job..i can only imagine the work it took to get it to this stage…..I love the way the Germans are so passionate about their RC and are world leaders at it……they amaze me. I worked in Nixdorf computers when I was a young man and everything the Germans do is like clockwork…great discipline….why am I not surprised this guy made this piece of art. It makes the plane look out of place :)….has to go into a warbird.

  4. Thank you Horst for your movie and posting it. I am builder and owner of the engine ( and its flying yellow-white test bench)To answer some of your questions: OF COURSE the engine will be in a Warbird next. It has now about 50 flying hours without a single fault, except problems with the first ignition. I designed  a redundant ignition system now with 4 Independent coils and electronics, These early problem should be sorted out for good. That's why I test the engine in a Trainer. Next to come is a  Focke Wulff FW 190 D9 in 3,4 scale (3,1 m wingspan, 3 m long)And yes, one day there will be a V6 engine of the same design, the cast parts are already in my shopCheers  Detlef
