Thats amazing work. Well done! I would love one of those if they ever became commercial viable.

Well, we are working on that. It will be a direct fit to P20's. Simply replace the exhaustnozzle with the Turboprop. No drilling or changes on the P20. We start testflying soon.

Thats great news. Please keep me informed. Also. Will you look at fitting it to different turbines of the same size? I was thinking of the Merlin 35 when it becomes available.

That's awesome! How much thrust were you getting with that 20" prop?

Hello All,

I am building a Pilatus porter with a Jetcat SPT5 turbo prop. Which is the ideal size of 4 bladed prop for this engine and where will I get it? Can anyone help me in this. Thanks

Power, I have not measured. But different calculation Software give figures between 9-10Kg of thrust. The engine weight with Mount is 1,45Kg, but this is prototype. Serial one will be lighter. I am going to Setup a PC 6 with 2,7m wingspan http://shop.pichler.de/pilatus-porte...u-flugmodell_3

I will post Videos as soon as they are availible.

This will give you an idea: http://personal.osi.hu/fuzesisz/strc_eng/index.htm

I like this calculator because it allows for temp & altitude variations, multi-blade props and gives estimated flying speed, static thrust and tip speeds and more.

Nice Turboprop!

Why were the videos removed? Are they not going to make these?
