Default RE: Merlin 35?

I was in contact with Jet Munt a couple months ago about the M-35. I was told it would be available early summer this year. Right now, they needed to finish the starter pod, and the thrust was down at 30~32n. So... they needed to massage it a little to get it up to 35n.

I feel exactly the same way... the P-20 is a very cool engine... but it's a little on the small side for the 90mm jets. it's better suited to a 70mm jet. Besides... who wants an 8Lb jet with only 5Lbs of thrust??? (lol)

I'm personally using an wren 44 in a 90mm T-45. It's WAY more engine than I need, but it's overall weight isn't any higher than an proper 90mm system with a 6s 5000mah LiPo.
