I had never heard of this engine but I had heard once of the principle. I find the engine fascinating, as it in principle seems to be better than conventional engines in most ways. The main obstacle in my opinion is proving its reliability, as this feature is vital in aviation. I wonder how long the rollers, their bearings and the swash plate can be expected to last before failure. And whether it would be possible to make a diesel engine based on this principle reliable. To prove its reliability many units have to be sold. But to sell in any quantity the reliability of such engines has to be proved. That is a conundrum. Conventional piston engines have a track record of a century and a quarter. As reliability is so critical for aviation and maritime use I was wondering whether such engines could be sold in large numbers for automotive, railway or stationary use. Or perhaps for military use. It is possible that such engines could be used for drones. After logging enough hours without any breakdowns it may be possible to accept such engines in the civilian aviation market. As the saying goes, if one can build a better mousetrap then the whole world will beat a path to one's door. Good luck with the Dyna-Cam Engine Production Startup efforts.
