RE: RAM 1000 on a Hotspot?
I have a well-used (and overweight) HotSpot with a P120, with speed limiter set to 200. I carry 2 liters of fuel and like Patrick, will rotate at 150' or so and can pull vertical immediately. I generally fly at 1/2 throttle and only use full pop during vertical manuevers and on take-off/go-arounds.
It is my turbine trainer (so to speak) and has served its purpose well. The excess thrust has saved my bacon a few times during botched approaches and a couple of "Kangaroo hop" landings.
It doesn't need this much thrust but the airframe can handle it.
