Perhaps that we can return to this once we finished our more important projects. I have some ideas on how we could improve it; ie by using a 3-cylinder radial engine, and using the valve gear to switch the next piston on/off (see http://www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/index.php?topic=7394.0 , http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=15deafcd5b4a5ede98b8c800ae001b66&prevstart=36 for a radial engine.
