Whoa! guys, gals if any.
Your still thinking about using Rotax and half VW engines. Not to bag
on them but there not the most reliable for the price or the weight.
When i was off web browsing I found these guys http://www.rotaryae.com/
They are rotary but you may want to take a peek they changed my mind
from the lycoming, VW for my Quickie Q-200 I now have one on order as
soon as there testing or something like that is done.
If they haven't even started testing them yet, what makes you think they'll be
more reliable than Rotaxes or half-VWs?

There more reliable cause they have tested the industrial rotary not
aviation rotary and has been proven on experimental aircraft already.
How many units have been installed in aircraft, and how many total flying hours
do they have? Chevy, VW, and Ford engines have been reliable in non-aviation
applications, too...
