Default Light weight low cost four stroke engines, good Rotax replacements.

OK, so how does this compare in total installed weight to:
- The two-cylinder water-cooled solo used in many self-launchers (~50

- the Rotax two-cycle used in other self-launchers (Taurus, earlier
German machines)
Enquiring minds want to know...

Or . . . How does it compare, in terms of vibration free, turbine-like
smoothness and compact size, to the Wankel rotary used in Schleicher's
ASH26E?
