That's cool, very interesting to watch. Surprised how smooth that 32-cylinder engine is.

Pretty cool. You can buy radial engines for large scale r/c aircraft. Cost about $2k.
The in-line 4 sounded nasty.
Supercharged small block was pretty nifty, the blower whine...awesome.
There was a guy in my town in MD who built a live steam locomotive. I think it was 1/8 scale and a day lighter too. 4-8-8-2. Big sucker made of brass and completely hand built. Would love to see it run.

^it's not a real engine that small v32, or at least not real as in that it isnt a combustion engine.
It's driven by compressed air.

I guess you are right! Still impresive though
