Engines Plugs Mufflers Fuel > Radial heli engine?!

Hey.
Not knowing a terrible amount on radial engines appart from they can get BIG,
Would there be any advantage to having a radial engine in a heli?!
Imagine 5 cyinders hammering away paralel to the disk...
Bet it would sound pretty awsome

But yeah, surely there would be more torque and other advantages to justify such a flamboyant investigation

Wow, I see a Bendix gear. Does this particular model have a built-in electric starter?

the website price list indicates the thing is about USD$ 26,000.00. That is a bit on the pricy side for my budget..... but it doesn;t say if the radial is part of the package or some other means of power... the site does show a number of engine options but the OS radial is not one of them...

I would think that one could take one of the larger units from Varion or the guy in Austria, and mount the radial to it, would be a darn site cheaper...
