    Come on!!! Rotary engine is so light that extra rotory is not going to throw the balance of anyways. And 2 rotors to 3 rotors means 50% more motor?? I really do not know much about rotory engines, but the math is just not doing for me...

    Yes, 50% more engine. Don't argue with someone that comprehends the concept of basic math.

    Half of two is one right? 2+1 = 3 ...Three is 50% more than two.

    PS: Four is 100% more than two. Halfway (aka 50%) between two and four is three making three 50% more than two.
