mini wankel ROTARY engine on NOS

[@nosnhoj99]

Kevin is where you go to watch stuff break, intentionally or not. If you want to learn how these work watch warped perception he's figured them out pretty good.

[@everettstormy]

JohnnyQ90 is even better he has put these little engines into rc cars and really does some cool stuff with em

[@toysforboysrc]

As finicky as they are fun.

[@StevenYoung-il8ei]

JohnnyQ90 is a great fabricator but warped perception is better with rotaries

[@everettstormy]

@@StevenYoung-il8ei yeah, but he rarely ever makes videos, i cant stand that personally. Johnny makes frequent and very good videos. But also i was talking about these model engines in general

[@needmoreboost6369]

@@everettstormy some good looking engineering on that channel but that channel hasn’t tuned an engine correctly yet! And lacks the intuition of an engine tuner’s touch! Warped perception is a bit closer to reality!

Jees give some insight lol,as I remember with 12a 13b always pita tbf everyone was beating on them after they already were well used ..when I was a kid , they were number one cars stolen as we had a towing account with Mazda

[@w4shtrey]

My first real car I bought in 1986 was a 1980 Mazda RX-7 with the Wankel rotary engine. Man that thing was fun to drive, especially to be only a little over 1 liter. RPM's for days.

[@LongTran-em6hc]

How was fuel consumption? Was it that bad?

[@Hughjanus720]

@@LongTran-em6hc I had one, it was on par with my buddies 350chev on a roadtrip to give a rough idea

[@DESOUSAB]

Back in the early 90's, a buddy of mine grabbed an 87 RX-7 Turbo. I still remember being in the passenger seat as the thing accelerated sliding from side to side through what felt like 3rd gear. Just a beast of a machine that did 0-60 in the low 6's with a 1.3L Wankel engine. At the time I drove a 1983 Wolfsburg Edition Scirocco which I destroyed some years later (only hurting my ego) on a trip to buy pasta in a snow storm. Come to think of it, I also rolled that car a couple of years earlier (again, hurting only my ego). Good times... :)

[@kingcosworth2643]

I've been missing the 'tested to destruction' videos... Lego copter was legendary fun :) Glad to see em making a return !.

[@Kdubgrowerz]

I LOVE these videos. This is like the old days with the plastic engines, BLOWING up. Legos flying.. my wife and i were on the floor rolling around in pain because we had laughed so hard.... Im so happy to see videos like the good ole days.. I WANT TO SEE. Can u explode a 540 motor, like a brushed old 540 hooked up to a insane brushless, or can u explode the OG rc10 trans, before the stealth trans.. or the losi hydro trans they had around 1995.. GREAT TIMES KEV!!!

[@genkifd]

so wrong here is unbelievable - my RX7 barely drinks a drop of oil.

[@TheWisdom3]

@ronnie doorzon,. Yup,. 💯

[@garykee1]

check the internals..from what i remember, there are seals inside the wankel engine..they might be defective from stock so trying to start it could be from lack of compression within the cylinder..i'm no rotary expert by any means,,but just trying to help out..cheers Kevin! see you in the next one!

[@warriordugan7236]

A few other guys on the engine's web site said they couldn't get theirs started either. Someone said it needs over 10k rpm to start! Kev might be the 1st one to get it started, LOL.

[@Castilleta]

The piston of a rotary engine is just called the rotor. But we mostly call it dorito cuz sounds more funny

[@kihgu]

Radial engines and liquid piston engines dosent have a Dorito chaped rotor and a radial have Pistons but is still a Rotary so please dont think that Wankel and Rotary engine bc wankel is a specific engine and rotary is a category

[@Castilleta]

@@kihgu ok but this specific engine is a wankel rotary and even if it’s smaller it still is like a normal size vehicle engine. And yes I know there are other types of rotary engines but this is a wankel and a wankel uses a Dorito shaped piston

[@garryrunyon5469]

I like it dorito… (mechanic) um sir we found the problem with your engine, the dorito has is broken

[@daveyc194]

The way they laugh after the NOS bit is top notch

[@vinniesmith7455]

Rotors and e-shaft and the correct term for the housing shape is called epitrochoid… most rotary engines have four plugs leading and trialing … and every three rotations is one combustion cycle I think if I’m not mistaken … hence why the rotary engine can push some much power for such a small displacement … 10a 12a 13b 20b and 26b are the more common of the engines that are used in cars or whatever you desire even in airplanes !

[@mish146]

Dad has owned several rotarys

[@zedstead3748]

A "dry" NOS system is never a good idea. N20 as the name suggests, supplys the engine with 2x the oxygen, hence the rev rise. The same effect can be acheived simply by leaning the engine right out. Both will have the same outcome of destroying the engine very quickly. Also love the fact that You completely skipped the whole watercooling bit, You were lucky it didnt start pre-igniting once it did finally start. Just my two bobs worth, love the videos Kev, keep em coming 🙂

[@OoheavysackoO]

I did see them turn the screw in which would usually indicate making it richer before the dry n2o. Neat but I bet it wasn't fun on their end lol.

Maybe the apex seals aren't making compression, which is a common problem on new rotary builds

[@fidelcatsro6948]

only mazda could make them work

[@RobertNES816]

OS made a rotary that was allot more reliable. Not sure if they're still available, but atleast you could actually use them and they didn't need a ridiculous amount of rpm to even start.

[@danbrit9848]

i love how the starter has no switch and the nos has one that you basically cancelled out lol

[@jakeventure]

Gets it working after hours, immediately gives it NOS 😂

[@rodneyjoshuajoseph5337]

Amazing how they made those rotors to small! This is awesome Kev, enjoyed the video. I think you can actually install this in an RC car. I've seen some people do it, maybe you can try it if you'd like. Rotaries really love to drink engine oil and fuel, but if you take care of it well, it would be very reliable, and you get RPM for days lol

[@ohandanotheronebitesthedus6247]

Man you destroy everything 🤣

[@oliverscorsim]

As a rotary guy this thing was machined like poop. Pull it apart and lap the irons and check the rotors. If you need to take anything off the rotor to refine it make sure you take the same off the housing to that rotor. You shouldn't need to but these are far from the kinda poop os engines of days past. Try this and I bet it starts alot easier and runs better. As for power intake and exhaust set up are everything to a rotary along with ports. The ports iv seen are pretty ragged in my opinion and the timing is kinda out there but the size is embarrassing. I'd say you can double the power with a proper d port and smoothing more with a bigger set of carbs and dialing in the runner length for the intake and exhaust as well as finding the right megaphone angle and length of the end of the collector. Rotarys are kinda special in this way the little things are huge and getting everything set up to resonate at the same rpm rang is too. But seriously take a look at port timing of any other rotary and youl see quickly how wild their timing is. And yes even the cr700 high revving two rotor Nortons dont have port timing anything like these. These shorten the power stroke and compression stroke pretty bad and past the point of needing it for more rpm while the high vac side isnt opening until its starting compression. And this is ignoring the horrible sealing job they did. Long time rotor head with many rx7s and lots of motor builds under my belt and even a pet project trying to make a tiny 4 rotor diesel for a motorcycle that iv been working on since hs so a good 14 yrs now.
