The problem with this engine is the "speed control" is just a switch between throttle governed mode and hit &miss mode. It's a neat idea, but in the video it appears to be running in the throttle governed mode but it actually dosen't have a governor. So to keep it from overspeeding the carb is tuned to limit the power. Hit miss mode running requires a wide open throttle to get as much power out of the hit so it will miss many times before it hits again. This setup will have a weak hit so it won't miss much before the next hit. But I think this new engine will be alot of fun to fine tune and it is one of the best looking engines around.

You are not showing the 'interesting side' or showing it run in hit and miss mode

I love the HM-01. Anything from the Musa Factory & Stirlingkit is gonna be badass. I think the Musa / Retrol sounds incredible 💘
