Jet cat P100 RX first run.
Probably the most boring, and uneventful first start of any turbine.... Typical jet cat then Really. I primed the single fuel line up too the festo fitting on the can. Put the trim up and that was that. I have said it before, but the consistency of these Jet Cats is truly outstanding. There is more drama and fuss in starting an electric model up these days!
The only slight issue I had was a Doh moment when the GSU kept showing a flat battery. That was tracked back to the turbine being set to run on the supplied 9.9v Life pack instead of the normal 7.4v Lipo that was already fitted within the model. A quick flick through the varied battery selection menu in turbine limits soon sorted that out.. It seems these latest ECU's will run on almost any type of battery.
Some boring photos for now, but a Video of the first start is uploading now. I was planning on flying it this weekend, but may have to sneak out tomorrow or Friday as the forecast is looking cack!
