Merlin Lite long wing variant as a motorglider is very interesting.

I’ve been watching Aeromarine for a few years now. Chip has a new idea every show but never seems to finish 1 project before moving in to the next. I have never seen the plane fly in a show. Also, why not use the Can Am instead of “Can Am like”?

I wrote "Can Am-like" because the engine is modified for aircraft use.

I wonder if it would be possible to merge 2 of these engines together to yield 120 hp, yet have the dependability of two separate engines? Most airplanes require 100+ hp, so that would make these useful for larger, and faster planes.

Chip is brilliant, but he needs a production manager and a marketing person.

What are the actual numbers of the Merlin and the vtwin being sold? They're interesting but I've always got the sense that they're still quite rare in actual operation. Great ideas, but, like everyone else, I'm leery of being the guinea pig.

They don't exist. There are no numbers, yet, and we don't know when they ever come out at this point.

Can you say Jan of Viking Engines who shafted all the folks to whom he supplied sketchy Subaru auto engines (and others who paid Cash deposits) by declaring corporate bankruptcy…? Can you say that boys and girls ? All of Dan Johnson’s video interviews tend toward being puff pieces. And ask Dan to supply the names and N-numbers of the LSA’s that he has owned…please.

I love your segments Dan, if you can please get help with your audio setup. The audio artifacts make it hard to listen to.

I had to work without my video partner, so I tried using AirPods via Bluetooth. For the most part it actually worked quite well, but sometimes, when other noise or activities interfered, it simply wasn't as clear as I would've liked. I could do much better with my microphones but then I'm having to handle those. When you're a one-man show you're somewhat more limited. These were live recordings.

OK , but why V twin? maybe because they have more torque at lower RPM? Give me a Honda RC51 engine then.
@rossbrumby1957

V twins vibrate more at lower rpm than parallel or boxer twins. Reckon a boxer twin would be better on a small plane.
