Default Turbines

Hello I just ran my first turbine today on a bench and wooooooooo.

The person who designed those things have a little too much time on their hands.

I have seen them run quite a few times at meets but its different especially when the power is in your hands.
Awsome !!

It runs @ 24lbs thrust full throttle and wanted to take my bench away My bench is 6* 4 (*feet)
When i first went to half throttle it was moving the bench
The engine is going on a kangaroo
I am thinking on detuning that engine.
I weigh 140 lbs and i belive it can take off with me in a glider very easliy.


Why turbines have to be so powerful ??
