Did some work today with good results, not knowing Spektrum has delayed my progress but, we are moving forward.


I've fixed the loose comm cable, added a bit of mid CA to the cable plug, just enough to make it fit tight in the comm jack on the turbine, nice and clean job, I now have temp readout from the prob ( the old one ) with that, I needed to prime, both fuel lines, the
main fuel line was not a problem, to prime the plug line I connected the propane selenoid to the fuel selenoid spot on the ECU and primed the fuel selenoid but I was priming the plug line, with all that done, I also found a fuel leak coming from the festo Y, I will get a new one soon but for the moment some mid CA did the trick, just enough to run the engine.

The engine finally started, some flames.... watch the vid, it explains it better.
I also tried the smoke pump, no go on that one, the Y that I probably made some 15 years ago has a broken spot some where ( I will fix that soon ) I end up using my second LIPO, the pump runs.... watch the video.

All in all a good day, I finaly got the engine running as well as the smoke pump, found a bad fuel leak and a broke Y that feeds the ECU and smoke pump, GREAT!!!! more stuff to fix

Forgot, I also change the fuel lines inside the turbine, they have been in there over a decade and some time ago I also change the starter O ring, I suspected it was 1/2 way gone and dry.
