An unusual form of four-stroke model engine that uses what is essentially a sleeve-valve format, is the British RCV series of " SP " model engines, which use a rotating cylinder liner driven through a bevel gear at the cylinder liner's " bottom " and, even more unusually, have the propeller shaft — as an integrally machined part of the rotating cylinder liner — emerging from what would normally be the cylinder's " top " at the extreme front of the engine, achieving a 2: 1 gear reduction ratio compared to the vertically oriented crankshaft's rotational speed.
