Default RE: Show your Turbine test stand

This is my test stand for my P160SX. Not allow me to measure the thrust, but enough to setup the engine and fire it before to fit it in the plane.

That's simple glued and screwed wood assembly.

Real measured thrust is very dependant on weather parameters : pressure, temperature, hygrometry. Original claimed performance by manufacturers have to be measured in correct condition or corrected.

That's the same for real stuff.
