I have seen a lot of industrial V-twin conversions over the years but they often seemed pretty elaborate or at least opaque in terms of how much work was involved. I wonder if anyone knows of a relatively simple example that has been proven and flown with little or no modification to the engine itself, just removing bits and bobs that aren't needed for flight, bolting on an existing belt redrive like those from Ace Aviation, then off you go. I am not talking about much power here, just something basic for a low-cost, low-speed flivver.
