I reckon that this could be the new lightweight replacement...

V12
(check out the videos - esp. the 14-cylinder rotary!)

Joking aside... anyone for a R/C scale Spitfire with a genuine V12 engine?

Awww, isn't it cute? 87cc and 6-8 BHP isn't bad at 70 - 90 BHP per litre. The straight 6 version would be 44cc so you could fit one to a moped. How cool would that be?

That's a radial engine, I'm more impressed with that than the V12.
