RE: A M T Olympus
They are just about the finest engineered, sweetest performing, most powerful turbine you can buy in my opinion...
Bulky ecu and overall weight are the trade off. If your looking all out sheer grunt they done come any finer[8D]

All AMT turbines always have had almost instant throttle response. The Oly is a monster of an enigne and it can reliably produce over 50 lbs of thrust. The only negatives I have is the older type ecu and the hefty weight. But they truely are built like a tank.....

I have flown AMT (both Netherlands and USA) for 10 years

RE: A M T Olympus
i fly my olympus over 5 jears now- never a shutoff or a other problem without a hopper or any airtrap..... ones i chrashed with a huge fire- the thrusttube failured.....
i pull a black dirty peace of metall out of the fire- after 3weeks i got it back from benny for just 500usd and runs like new!!!
second story. it sucks a festo qlink from the table. i was behind the turbine and feels the dust. the turbine looks like a rat had biten it. i call benny and he ask if she still runs i said yes she runs but looking terrible- dont worry if she runs without shaking, FLY IT.
there are two things i never would sell- my old guzzi and my olympus!!!!!!!

While these turbines and others are built very well, I suspect that running a damaged compressor wheel or a damaged trubine wheel even if not shaking may not the safest thing to do in the interest of our hobby.
