Don't know if RCJI tests for their own numbers or just grab the manufacturers?!

Hi Henke,
I can confirm that the figures in the RCJI tests are the actual figures measured when running the engine under test, not those supplied by the manufacturer, as I carry out the tests for RCJI magazine.
The KingTech K-70G2 is the subject of the test in the RCJI issue being published at JetPower in around 10 days time, and the K-85G2 test will appear in the following issue, due out in November.
As you will have guessed from this, RCJI has been saved, following the closure of Traplet Publications, and will continue to be published by a new company - more details to follow shortly!

Is 300g/min a correct figure for fuel usage? Vt80 uses 220g/min and only 0.5kg less thrust. Of course it weights a bit more (1050g) but almost 40% greater fuel usage negates weight and thrust advance.
Are KT weights full installed weights w/O battery?
