Apparently these propulsion designs have been failures. I wonder why. Both props rotating in same direction on yellow, uncertain on the FK-11.
Funk history site says: "This airplane was intended to optimize the efficiency of propeller aircraft, as it made it possible to achieve astonishing flight performance with even the lowest engine power"
Please offer your insight in regard to general design success or failure of this application, of course if you have specific insight on actual SETP aircraft by all means comment.
