I was in an army unit a few years back that flew UAV's (unmanned aerial vehicles) that were powered by Moto Guzzi engines. These are transverse v-twins rated at about 75 horsepower each, and were set up in a twin engine centerline thrust configuration (push me - pull you.) I'm not sure what the max gross weight on them was, but it was rumoured that it in a rescue situation they were capable of carrying two passengers, one strapped onto each wing. I'm not sure I would want to put my trust in a pilot who was on the ground, possibly hundreds of miles away, but if they could carry that kind of weight in addition to the fuel and onboard equipment they already had it must have put them well over 1000 lbs. Seems like it would certainly be possible to use such a motorcycle engine in at least a KR1 if not a KR2.

This is a little high for a propeller, and the load of a motorcycle might be different for a propeller. I just wanted to see if anyone has heard how the BMW R-engine does on an airplane. I have been told through some research that the Rotax gearbox will go on a BMW engine. The question is how does this go on a KR and will it be a reliable setup for a KR?

Knew a guy years ago that flew a BMW in a cassett out of the Rifle-Glenwood Springs area of Colo. He flew a lot, short distances, but this is in the REAL Rocky Mnts. He said you had to continually Tweak it to get best performance and not sure how he done that in fight . Every time I arrived, in my Champ (no treaking) he was Tweaking but he defiantly liked it and flew it a lot. Not much help but all I've got. Hope someone has something more currant.
