This is a barely used Jet cat P-240, Yes that's right a P-240 as in the fastest turbine you can get in the U.S. with support.
The turbine has about 30 min of run time on it (the picture shows 51 mins but 20 mins were already on there from the factory).
It is an SX model meaning its full KERO start with 2 solenoids.
HERE IS A VIDEO OF A 240 IN ACTION:
This turbine has a max RPM rating of 112,000 RPM meaning it can produce up to 60 Lbs of thrust, it is currently set to 111,000 RPM and is making 58 lbs of thrust at sea level.
Here are the specs: Weight: 5.5 Lbs Fuel Consumption @ full power: 33 oz/Min Max Power: 58 Lb
The dimensions are the same as the P-200 but this motor has a larger compressor wheel and a larger combustion chamber, it is being used mostly by the military for drones and generally comes with an onboard generator, however this one was modified by Bob Wilcox of Jet to be similar to a P-200 with an onboard starter motor.
I will also include Free Festo Fittings (including a 3mm and 4mm connectors and a 4mm Y-Splitter)
A FOD screen is also included.
The retail on the P-240 is $6250.00
I'm asking significantly less for basically a new ENGINE for those that need the most power they can get and still have a company they can get support from in the U.S.
For trades I will take an RTF KingCat w/160 or higher engine in good condition, or another RTF sport jet w/turbine in the 160 class.
I will NOT accept paypal, only money order/check/cash in hand for this deal.

I talked to Bob Wilcox and he verified everything I have on my add and said to feel free to have anyone contact me to verify the details,
here is jetcat's phone number: 805-226-8700
You can contact them to verify the warranty, serial no. and anything else you may have questions on.
Here are something he said:
The p-240 works best in higher altitudes and is designed for large and heavy jets as it has a lot of grunt, smaller turbines have problems lifting heavy loads.
Also this is the same style turbine that Lockheed martin uses for there drone testing so its MILITARY SPEC! and would work well for UAV uses as well.
