Default Night run of the Lambert Kolibri T25

While fiddeling with new projects for 2012 I thought I might share some night running of my Kolibri T25-HP (6.65lb of thrust @66F ambient temp) I think it's impressive it throttles without any flames or excessive heat, even shooting in complete darkness with only the screen of my cellphone shinging a little bit. Before upgrading to the HP version with smaller exhaust nozzle it ran without any visible glow on the nozzle even at night.

When starting you se a bit of a blue flame, that's not visible if running the gas manually. This start is with on borad gas supply as could't manage both recording and controlling gas at the same time.

search youtube and compare with other turbines running at night
