★ What is Contra?♪♪ In modern civilized society, electric models are rapidly evolving, but there are no engine-powered Contras in model airplanes. Regardless of the trends of the times, as an ``engine geek?'' I feel lonely. The idea is to make the propeller fly at 10,000 revolutions, so it's a lot of trouble, but I have no choice but to try making it myself (^^;. - Věda a technologie
Super great idea and job!! But please take the music out of the video. We want to hear the original sound of all the machines.
Thank you for your comment. Well, this research has just begun, so I'll take this into consideration from now on. Thank you for your advice.
That has got to be the coolest RC propeller setup I've seen thus far! I've never seen someone successfully design and build a working setup like yours! Congratulations! Job well done! 👏
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.😄
Pretty sure there's some f3a pilots and contra rotating prop manufacturers that disagree with you.
@@neilbarclay7070 It is one thing with motors. Completely different with a single engine. Although, I do not know how practical this would actually be.

Great engineering work and precision machining with highly skillful workmanship combined with great Japanese Made great engine, the engine also famous for its reliable and long life working. On about 1977 in Hong Kong, I have an Enya 60X modified to water cooled for sport cruiser, then converted to rear intake side exhaust for speed boat and give plenty year of modelling pleasure.
Thank you for your comment. We are still testing it and there is some power loss, so we have not reached its full potential, so we will continue to do various things. Please enjoy a good radio control life.
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.
You have made an incredible contra-rotating propeller system. Congratulations!
Be safe, i want to see more cool things from you for a long time.
Thanks for your comment. This is encouraging, so please look forward to it.😄
If you're that good of a machinist and able to make a counter rotating system like that I'd like to see you make your own engines
After all they're not that complicated there's only a few moving parts and they're a sleeve valve engine which is interesting to me anyway
I hate people saying to stay safe but in this case it is indeed required lol
@@darrinbunston5932 Thank you for your comment. Well, a lot of people are actually building engines, but they can't compete with the manufacturers. What I'm aiming for is to achieve something that engine manufacturers can't do, and I don't think a company can do it at the moment due to the production costs, and even if it were possible, it wouldn't be profitable unless they produced a huge number of them. No, and I doubt how many enthusiasts will need this.😅
Ce serait intéressant de le voir monter sur un avion et le voir voler.
In 1986 I built one of these for a Mechanical Design course for my MSME at Stanford University. I failed to properly calculate the pulsing loads from the engine firing and undersized the drive belt by a factor of 3. It started and ran - for a few minutes. I got an "A" and a fun memento for my workshop. Yours looks like a proper sizing job. Congratulations.
Thank you for your comment. Well, the load calculations were unpredictable.Currently, the belt size has been reduced by 30%, but we are still trying to reduce it.
LOL!
i had the funky idea of mounting a diesel engine and belt driven genset to my cheap backhoes. of course, it then got an overcenter clutch for the hydraulic pump, so i could disengage that...
after the third belt, i checked a calculator, it said i needed FIVE BELTS!
so the pumps went back to direct drive. it was at this point that i realised an e-clutch from a mower was perfect... except i had hacked that vital 1 inch off the crankshaft to mount one... should have clicked sooner, as the genset has an e-clutch...
the genset? its fine on a pair of V belts. larger diameter pulleys, etc...
sigh. i hate hindsight!
I used to have an ENYA. Nice motors. Nice work! I wanted to hear it run without the music.
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.😄
Excellent job! Cannot believe how smoothly it ticks over at low revs!
Thank you for your comment, encouraging.😄
I really wanted to hear the engine running at full power . . . and all I got was damn *MUZAK!!*
Thank you for your comment. The current output is about 70%, and the sound of the highest output is the one you hear when you hit the tachometer in the video while driving.
"Counter rotating" -This video is AWESOME. Nicely done!
Thank you for your comment. It's encouraging.😄
Very fine design and workmanship! Congratulations, it's beautiful!
Thank you for your comment. It's encouraging.😄
I remember the Enya engines when bought my first OS SF 61 and FP 45. My brother bought the OS SF 45 which was already broken in and we were shocked that it performed really well. Those were the good old days.
Thank you for your comment. Well, the engine I bought with my first salary after becoming a working adult was the OS29R.😁
I had an “enya 19 “ over 50 years ago . It used to really scare me and made my finger very sore .
@@sobeit1927 In the past, there were no electric starters, so starting the engine was difficult.😅
@@sobeit1927 one has to learn to "bounce off compression"... watch an old girl being started, like a gnome radial... the smart guys actually flick them BACKWARDS. use the kickback to get them running.
they'll give you more than a sore finger if you get it wrong!
@@sobeit1927 , 1st rule: do not over-prime the engine....😉......being difficult in a 0.19 cu
Nice job; love the 'safety slippers'! : )
Thank you for your comment. Well, it can be quite dangerous, right?
A work of art, absolutely beautiful.
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.
Lovely piece of work . Thanks for showing

This is a great video of happy fabrication resulting in very happy outcome!
Thanks for your comment. It's true, it's not a fabrication, it's the real thing.😅
Nicely made! Good job!👌
Thank you for your comment, it's very encouraging.
Outstanding craftsmanship.

Aerospace engineer here: I have no idea how or why CZcams recommended your video BUT I AM VERY HAPPY IT DID.
That is beautiful engineering.
Thank you for your comment. It's very encouraging.
@@ken23p No Probs.
If you can - When you get time do a series on how you made it.
ヘリ用の二重反転システムは試作段階まで作ったが、実機乗せまでは資金が足りなくて断念した（傘歯をデフギアみたく組んだもの）完成させるのは素晴らしい事ですね
コメントありがとうございます。資金不足とはいえ、実機乗せまで考慮とはすごい事です。自前はまだ模型でさえ実飛行に至っておりません。毎日の様に問題を少しずつ解析してますが先は長そうです、応援感謝致します。
Incredible engineering and machining here. Excellent!
Thank you for your comment, it will encourage me next time.😄
Very nicely done, excellent craftsmanship

素晴らしい工作精度。
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.
This Gentleman is a Master craftsman and a master machinist. I love watching masters build things like this for no other reason than personal satisfaction and (probably) someone told them it is "Impossible". Well done sir!
Thank you for your comment. It's not perfect yet, but it will serve as a starting point for my next work.😄
@ken23p Sir your "perfect" and mine are two different things! If there was an award given for excellent machine work your machining on the spinner alone would be Oscar worthy. When you put the pieces together on the front and back halves, you can't even see the seam. Really world class work! What surprised me the most was the fact that you got the Enya .60 to spin both of those big props. I take it that you built a gear reduction drive as well? I know Byron Originals used to sell something similar back in the 1980s so that a .60 2 stroke could spin a much larger prop...Single prop obviously...
@@mapquest681 Thank you for your praise. I have been building products based on my own experience and intuition, and I didn't know that Byron Originals was producing and selling a similar system. I'd really like to see it, and I'll be publishing the structure of the system soon, so I hope it's helpful.😄
I might of done it with planetary gears, but your solution is indeed unique!
Thank you for your comment. I thought about planetary gears, but gave up because the bearings and shafts that support a system that rotates over 10,000 revolutions would be too exaggerated in a model engine.😅
Nice workmanship
Thank you for your comment.(^^)
Well done ! How fun ! Now to see it installed and flying / boating / whatever -- moving.
Thank you for your comment. We are currently experimenting with it, but please look forward to its completion.😄
やっぱり二重反転は浪漫。
最高です…✨
コメントありがとうございます。模型用としては課題の多い作品ですが励みになります。
Très ingénieux et bien réalisé, bravo !
thank you. I'm happy.😄
Beautiful. A work of art created by a true master craftsman.
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.😄
@@ken23p I am trying to get prototypes manufactured for some of my designs. I'm currently separated from most of my tools. Do you do any model car designs as well?
@@NeriEngineering-oq6vh Thank you for your comment, please complete the model car. I've only driven cars in slot racing cars a long time ago, but model cars look interesting so I'm interested.😅
Really nice engineering and machining! Beautiful work. Would love to see it in a scale model flying.
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.😄
Klasse Arbeit , Respekt !!!
Vielen Dank für Ihren Kommentar, er ist ermutigend.😄
Awesome. Well done!
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.😄
This is what the current F3A world needs! Not batteries and BECs.. great work!
Thank you for your comment. We are conducting daily experiments to put it into practical use, so please look forward to it.
An Enya 60 doesn't produce enough power for f3a. Also, weight is always an issue. For f3a you need a system that will generate 3500W plus, and weigh no more than 1.85 kg including spinners, props, and mounting system...
If you want to quickly win a competition, I think it would be better to purchase the "electric contra rotating" system currently available on the market.
They made the exact same engine externally in an .80 size which would give you more power. My only criticism is running that thing in your face. Safety requires we stand behind the propellers even on regular single-propeller model airplane engines
Thank you for your comment. Well, I've had a propeller come flying at me a few times in the past.😅
Nice job, very cool!!
thank you. It's encouraging.😄
beautiful, intelligent design, congratulations
Thank you for your comment. It's encouraging.
That's a beautiful engine

Outstanding!!
Thanks for your comment.
that's beautiful man!
thank you😄
Amazing.
Thank you for your comment.😄
Sadly nothing was shown on the making of the rear reversing gearing, but a fantastic achievement
Thank you for your comment. I simply replaced the starter receiver for the helicopter engine with a gear.
@@ken23pSo, the rear belt is driving a gear connected to the inner shaft that drives the front prop. Am I understanding that correctly?
@@michaeljones1664 Yes, the gear from the crankshaft to the belt is 30% faster but slowed down by the front pulley.
Very nice!
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.
Great work :D
Thank you for your comment. I will strive to do even better work.
Excellent! Keep it gas!
Thanks for your comment.😄
Great job! ...
I had a similar idea for some time.. With use of 3 engines.. 2 Enya engines and an electrical propulsion in the back for support, start and generator.
Use 2 Enya diesel engines in a flat 2 configurations, similar to a boxer engine, Only with 2 crankshafts mated together with gears in the back.
One of the Enya engines housing has to be turned around to so that both exhausts face up.
And one of the engine has to spin opposite direction.
Both of the engines then drive a propeller with a pully and a belt.
Thank you for your comment. Let's make your great ideas come true!
Masterpiece
Thanks for your comment.😄
Work of art¡
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.
"You worked hard on this innovation. Good job."
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.😄
Absolutely beautiful work! Somewhere there is a modeler building a Tu-95 looking for your engine.
Thanks for your comment. We have to make three more units, which is a hassle.😅
How about a Fairey Gannet then? 😀
@@matsgustavsson665 Well, with the Fairey Gannet, you have to use a turboprop engine.😅
And you wouldn't with a Tu-95 ? 😀 Well, there is always Avro Shackleton...
@@matsgustavsson665 TU-95 is difficult because I have to make 4 sets.😅
Nice engine
Thank you for your comment, encouraging.😄
wow that is a lot of prop for a 60 but it swings it cool dude really cool
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.😄
Slick setup, hope you’ve had all the kids you’re planning on. I sure wouldn’t point that at my junk!
Thank you for your comment. I will use it as a reference later.😁
Un énorme travail d'ingénierie, du top niveau que je ne pensais jamais voir un jour ! BRAVO MONSIEUR. Serait il envisageable un jour de voir vos moteurs sur l'avion "Bear"
Merci pour votre commentaire. C'est encourageant.😄
Excelente la habilidad del Maestro
Gracias por tu comentario, es alentador.😄
Excellent. If you want to go fast, get an Enya. Super Cool.
Thank you for your comment, I will take it into consideration.
😀
Congratulation. High skill sir.

Keep working, stay enthusiastic
Amazing
Thank you, that's encouraging.😄
Wow is that clever - and dangerous!
Thanks for your comment.
I saw a recent discovery of a stator blades used in conjunction with a propeller (iso a contra rotating one). If you made such a setup it would be cool to see if you could compare results with the above.
Thank you for your comment, I will take it into account.😄
the REAL test is to mount it to a pivoting mount and demonstrate that whilst contra-rotating does eliminate the helical airstream, and the gyroscopic forces, it actually INCREASES the torque reaction on the engine...
Thank you for your comment. Yes, that would be ideal, but since this system was an experimental operation, we discovered some unexpected problems, such as too much overall resistance, so we are already in the process of designing the next system. I would like to provide a numerical answer once the original ideal power has stabilized, so please look forward to it.😁
Excellent ... Excellent .... This is is called MECHANICAL ENGGINEERING ( ME ) , not the crap MEs are doing todays ...
One bad thing in this incredible job is Safety Measures !...
Thank you for your comment, I will use it for future reference.😅
so cool 😀
thank you.
but the magic, is at the rear side side of engine, is where contrarotating system is, show this in next videos please
Thank you for your comment. Next time I'll publish it.😅
I build running glow engine displays that are attractive to look at and run, and this is a beautiful piece.
Thank you for your comment. It's encouraging, and I hope you'll make something good too.😄
Amazing build! What was in that first tank you filled up on the test stand?
Thanks for your comment. Lubricating oil diluted with fuel.
EXCELENTE 👍👍 🇧🇷
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.😄
Question - Just why / how does the belt-driven prop turn in the opposite direction from the prop attached directly to the crank shaft? A mechanical illustration or interior parts assembly photo would be nice.
Thank you for your comment. The belt-driven propeller is rotated in reverse by two gears inside a box taken out from the crankshaft at the rear of the engine. We are currently making operational adjustments and parts machining to improve performance.The next video, "Version 2," will be released in due course, so please enjoy it.😁
Heard of a lot of Swiss machine makers but not Wahli Freres. Apparently they mainly made grinding machines.
Thank you for your comment. This multi-purpose machine tool is no longer in production. In recent years, it seems that they have been producing small thread cutting machines, hobbing machines.
Nice Job Ken.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you, that's encouraging.😄

Very nice bro 👍 congratulations ❤️ from india 🙏🙏
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.
We can do without the music, we want to hear the engine.
Thank you for your comment. In the second half of the video, the engine is running. It's a little hard to understand, but please turn up the volume and enjoy.
wahli !! super !! rare !!!
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.
Lovely.
thank you.😄
What is the smaller tank for? Lubricating oil for the gearbox?
Thank you for your comment. This is an oil tank to properly lubricate the gear box and bearings on opposite shafts. The lubricating oil mixed in the fuel cannot be circulated alone.
Trying to wrap my head around how this works. The pulley drives the back prop, but how is the front prop driven?
Nice work! Next step is make a pitching mechanism for prop blades.
Thank you for your comment, I'll do my best!😄
@@ken23p I have one question please, do you measured the thrust on that configuration, and with single prop?
@@valentinloginoff It is possible to achieve almost the expected rotation speed (10.000rpm) with a single propeller, but it seems that there is a lot of rotational resistance because it is coaxial.
Beautiful work. Would you consider selling this or constructing another for sale?
Thank you for your comment. I am making small improvements and testing it every day, and I would like to consider selling it if I am satisfied with it.
Would love to see that on a model of the Reno racer “ Precious Metal”.
Thank you for your comment. It's a wonderful airplane, and one of my favorites.😄
Loved it but I sure would have liked to hear the engine once you started it.. the music is too loud. Beautiful to see though.... that must have been fun. I'd love to put that in a plane.
Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.😁
Мастер- красавчик! Респект!❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥
Спасибо за ваш комментарий, это обнадеживает.🥰
Genius!
thank you.😄
Would that gearbox set up work in an Electric Pusher configuration? Were the Belts difficult to source?
Thank you for your comment. I believe that if you design according to the output data of the target airplane's motor, you will definitely find something that fits.
Lovely work, but a terribly dangerous place to sit were something to go wrong..
Thanks for your comment. It's noisy when you run it outside, and the work area is small.
Would be awesome to see a static pull test single prop vs contra prop same engine
Thank you for your comment, I will take it into consideration.😀
@ken23p fantastic job on all the machining and work BTW, looks great. Forgot to mention that. Will you put it on a model airplane? Would be weird to fly an rc plane with no P factor
@@rossofiorano5129 This is a system that conducts research and experiments to get on an airplane from the beginning. Originally, we started to eliminate the gyroopri session effect of the control line.

Thank you for your comment, it's encouraging.
Is the contra rotating prop design really more efficient? Does it produce more thrust?
Thank you for your comment. The explanation regarding the performance etc. of the contra rotating prop will be long, so please check the explanation site. Please note that we are currently researching the system used in this video, so we are unable to provide detailed information at this time.😅
