Default RE: Simjet Nexus or Merlin 160 ?

There are always two sides to a story, Scott. If you had a Dragon, that must have been several years ago. Anyway, my personal NEXUS puts out almost 17 kg. (37,4 lbs) at 122.000 rpm. Last I spoke to Lars, he said that they were aiming for 18 kg. but still have a way to go yet. One other thing is, that the temperature of my engine is quite low. 480 degrees celcius in idle.
