Will the RV 3 fit in on weight and stall limitations? You can not change
the weight, I believe.


stall is 51 MPH, so it just fits the 45 knot rule (VGs might get it lower)

It is about 700-750# empty and 1100 gross as stock.
I was just thinking, the designer sets the operating limitations of a
homebuilt's engine.
therefore one could define an engine based on lycoming parts (up to 100%
lycoming) to have a max continous RPM of...say 2000. (as part of "your"
design to get a higher TBO)

If I was to build up an engine with parts out of my garage, I would set
the operating limitations, and would set the Vne of my own design/airplane.
