yep, and no generator running in the pits all day to charge the packs that are gonna last 5 min MAX!

i would put a turbine in it, just not that one. Nothing wrong with AMT but you need a lightweight unit. There's a PST 600r in the classifieds for a good deal, less thrust rating on paper but a great little turbine. I know guys that have those units and they seem to run forever. If you're really concerned about weight, convert it to an XICOY Fadec which is what all PST's come with now.
