Default RE: JetJoe OWNERS thread

i will post pics and video when i get my jet back from the paint shop in 2 weeks so please have some patients. []

i will post results about thrust WHEN i have the turbine installed in the JET and i can put it on scales.

My jet is a trim aircraft Spectra and it did!!!! 311km at Tamora (melbourn Australia in 2003) at a jet event clocked by a guy on the ground with a radar gun during a dive. as for the 5lb comment when a DF jet is flying it looses a lot of thrust as the airspeed of the jet cancels out most of the e-flux / thrust once at speed. That’s the flaw when it comes to DF. As for turbines the E-Flux is MUCH higher so I will have far more (FLYING) power and thrust to use as apposed to the DF.


As for the twin cone vs the single can I just take off the inner cone off the turbine or do I need a new tail set up from JJ.

I agree a 14 lb turbine should be a 14 lb turbine but hey if you that worried about it and its fact that the jj 1400 only puts out about 11 lb MAX then go and spend the extra $$$ and buy jet cat.


Maby jj’s new 18 lb turbine will give us the desired 14lb we wanted ?
