The kügel would not work for Dakar or Baja, the lack of suspension makes it a non-starter.
You’d go nowhere fast in in even the mildest terrain, in loose sand it’d just dig itself a hole.
The only place it’d somewhat function would be on a dry lake bed, flat hardpan, or wet, compacted
sand. Otherwise, fuggedaboudit.

Centaurus: 2650hp
2650hp x 8 = 21200hp

Proteus 765: 4450hp
4450hp x 6 = 26700hp
4450hp x 8 = 35600hp <---- almost twice original power

The Brabazon Mk.II was to be powered by eight Proteus engines Carlos, two for each coupled contra-prop and buried in the wing.

Nice. Much better design. Not as ugly.
