I dunno why no one gives this man credit for the contribution he has given to the rotary engine. I read many articles and everyone gives tribute to Dr. Felix Wankel, and im not trying to take anything away from him. But froede played a very important part in the design of the rotary engine and i think he derserves to be acknowledged. So for those who dont know him.



He came up with the Planetary Motion our cars are so unique in having. Wankel perfected the seals in the rotary and with there combined effort they made the first practical ROTARY ENGINE.

So praise Walter for the awesome feel of a smooth rev'ing rotary and its performance and curse wankel for the "Achilles heal" of our reliability issues?
