For Sale: Wankel Rotary Engine for BD-5. The 814 Wankle is a twin rotor, charge cooled rotary engine. It weighs about 115# with alternator, muffler and ECU. It produces 75HP @ 6000 RPM. It runs real hot, and I was unable to cool it with the radiator size and airflow constraints in my BD-5. I did fly it for short flights. I mounted the wankle on hard rubber pads using the steel mounts shown in the pictures, which are included. I am still using the radiator in my BD-5 which has a core area of about 100 Sq inches. It is 2" thick and I estimate it would need to be about double in size. I will include a Micro Tach. Price is $8,000.
