Turbo "fanned" Crank
Guys;
I think this is simply GREAT that someone would be creative enough to come up with this idea (and it works). My suggestion would be to immediately start on a Patent request, before someone Steals your idea.

So it seems EFRA has the same older rules that ROAR used to follow. The 7mm/.5 rule doesn'r exist anymore as far as ROAR is concerned. I am not sure what IFMAR allows now but they often follow EFRA rulebook on most items as far as I have seen. I will check and see what I can find.

Yeah, Efra followed IFMAR this year with the 7mm/0.5mm rule and really hurt a lot of us guys. Many of us had to get new engines to run at National level and our older engines are only good for club racing now. If you check the EFRA AGM minutes you will find that some of the engine manufacturers actually contested many of the rules as they believed the engines would become unreliable due to their size (.12 in particular)

This just amazed me that the height on the exhaust port was left free meanwhile in the past stated a 4.5mm exhaust height. This is what gave more difference between 'old' and 'new' engines rather than carb or crank issues.

the 'turbo crank' or fan crank idea isn't a new idea....it has been tried on various different 2 stroke engines for probably the last 20 years.
I've never heard of it working before, but then again, most 2 stroke performance engines don't turn 30,000+ RPM's either..

just picture fan blades sort of like are on a blower motor in a car on the crank. Or perhaps vanes that are on a turbo. When the crank turns, they turn, and supposedly move fuel/air mixture through the motor faster and harder.

that is pretty cool
i have a smeltz modded sirio that he has done quite alot of crank work to also
of course not like that
but my point was to say it gets extremely good gas mileage
i finished my qualifier with almost 1/2 a tank of fuel in my mtx3

Amazing work......
How much will you charge to do the crank mod on my outlaw engine? It's a Novarossi S5 (5 port turbo) .12 engine. I'm pretty sure there are some guys out in my LHS that would be interested with this mod. What other engine mods do you guys do, DanielSon? I am very impressed by your work. I am planning to get the legal version of my outlaw engine a Novarossi S3 which I plan to mod as well. Let me know I know a few guys that would be very excited with the news if you guys would be willing to do such work for a few of us. I am in within your area so getting the motor to you would not be a problem.
