Name this prototype
So, our government has introduced a 75% wage subsidy and, to take advantage of the program, we have hired another full-time staff member (Jeremy - general help).
One morning, we supervised him taking apart and reassembling various engines. We then tasked him with assembling five engines of a particular model. After he successfully pulled all the necessary parts for the build, we requested that he assemble one engine and show it to us for proofing.
This is what the engine looks like and we encourage forum members to come up with a name for this unique engine, basically a prototype.
BTW, Jeremy is an excellent worker, just not familiar with model engines but, since then, has assembled dozens of engines, all perfectly

Good grief!...reminds me of all the newbie "trainees" I had to deal with in the service dept. I had to redo ,or fix everything they touched!.....plus getting my own work done! I'd call that one DO OVER! Do we get those engines at a discount ?

Discount???
This is a unique, rare, one-of-a-kind engine and should easily command a high price. Imagine having such a piece in your collection and your heirs trying to figure out how this beast works; all whilst flipping the "on-off" switches on their electric airplanes.

Re: Name this prototype
Well, Jeremy did find it strange that the screws were so short and the needle valve so close to the (hot) cylinder but mentioned that all the full-scale engines he had ever seen "had the carburetor outside".
Keeping in mind that, when he was born 24 years ago, electric motors were in full swing. We would like to reiterate that he is an excellent worker with hand-eye coordinating skills and an eye to detail and precision that I can only wish for at my age

Wow! This is about the best response to a competition than we've had for ages. Problem is, it's not a competition and there's no prize on offer. Obviously struck a chord with everyone.
