The same project was preformed by the editor of R/C Jet International, John Wright, in the Dec 2006 issue. And I agree with him this is not for everyone, the average modeler does not know or have turbine experience.
He, John, put a larger engine than I am using and I have had corrospondence with others who have even used larger engines. I feel my choice of powerplant is much more conservative that most. I just wanted an everyday fun fly turbine jet rather that put undue wear on my other more expensive aircraft.

Gee I would like a plane that would last forever. At any speed.
This is not a project for the guy who is trying to save a buck. Who in this hobby can try and save a buck. Flying turbines is not a hobby for those on a limited budget.
That's for sure!
