Looks good but... how would you put an camera in the engine like that? I know the saying "Anything is possible" but still..

I'm guessing they put a hole the rough the head and used a fiber optic line with a camera remote. Just a guess though.

I'm with you on this one Boobaru. I'd like to see a few strokes in sequence, not edited like they have. Still an awesome view into the operations of the combustion chamber activities.

It could also be that the camera fried with the heat of the exhaust gas leaving the cylinder... Just a thought.

Hope they get another one going.

And is it just me, or does the inlet valve continue its spin after closing (a little after the flames have died down it still appears to be spinning)?

Awesome.
