I cant help you, but I can be the first to say ****el.
Edit:@ the swear filter doesnt like it! here's a link which answers most of your questions
Hang on, isn't a rotary engine one with normal pistons but arranged in a circular fashion, whereas a w@nkel engine is a different proposition altogether?
Yep. I was thinking of a radial engine. Thanks for clearing that up for me.Think you might be thinking on a radial engine as fitted to US aircraft c 1940. View attachment 49783

Actually there is also a rotary engine which looks just like the radial engine above - but the cylinders revolve with the propeller and the crankshaft is fixed to the plane. Example is the Bentley BR2 as fitted to Sopwith Camel. They weren't used much after WW1 as the gyroscopic forces made them dangerous to fly.
