RE: Byron's BD-5j
I fly the Liebetrau-BD5J in the 2nd season, meanwhile about 50 flights... It's a halfscale-jet with a wingspan of 2,60meters. I use a JetCat P160. It's only nessecary for starting on short grass-strips, for flying I need 25% throttle.
This year I won the german jet masters in class semiscale with this model and take the 1st plase at the german masters for motor-models in flying competition (10. Place over all). It flies very smooth, like a well powered sailplane. It's absolutely NO model for 3D-fun-- ;-)
Peter Liebetrau brings the new kit next year, complete with gears...Please ask him for further details.
