Animated Engines

[outersketcher]

This fellow has several animated Gifs of diferent types of engines in motion. They are simplified drawings that demonstrate how the main parts work and why. I love watching his Gif of a rotory engine in action. And the wankel engine is simply wierd. I figured this would be a great resource page for those of us who want to understand a little more about what we are trying to model.

He also has some neat info on carving your own model airplane propellers.

Those are great. I'm liking the wankel rotary.

That is a great site. The aircraft rotaries have always befuddled me. Maybe now I can sit down and figure them out.
