Very impressive for a pseudo 4-stroke... But...

I don't think it's the tiniest V12 as claimed. Mr Gasparin of CO2 model aeroplane engine fame must lay claim to that!

and just for those lovers of an aircraft of a certain age, he also did a 9-cylinder rotary!

That's two 9's and an 18...they're claiming a 12, not the smallest engine, just the smallest V12 *-) :dunno:

Fascinating nonetheless

The first link is actually a V12 though ... and smaller .... still I like the first where you see the creation phase!

Nice all together, and as you say, very fascinating!
