Good engine. Easy to over rev, trashing the seals in milliseconds. As a near constant rpm machine, it would be great. Very compact and smooth.

How do you think a small Wankel would do in a powered hang glider or an ultralight or similar? Would putting some kind of governor on it to prevent over-revving help to alleviate the seal trashing issue?

Just curious. I don’t have a project in the works at this time.
