Hi Guys, Anybody have any info/experience on the protech PT-80 turbine. I have access to one and at the moment it looks like one of the injectors have dropped as the jet pipe glows cherry red on one side during start up. I know protech dont support them anymore but I would reall like to get it sorted as I could possibly have it a nice cheap price. I have had 4 simjets varying from 1200-18, 2200, 2300, 2300-25 but am lost with the PT80. Anybody have experience of setting up the ECU and operating these tubines. I have heard in the grapevine that they are repackaged jetcat P80???
I have the manual for it and there was a video floating around on setting up the ECU, calibrating the pump etc. I am going to take it appart to see if one of the injectors has indeed dropped. Will hopefully re-brase in the correct position and go from there?
Any info would be extremely appreciated !! [

Cheers Tim

it is distributed in the netherlands , made in hungary.
pump is made from a waterpump
solenoids use over 2 amps just to open :-)
starter assembly is poor.
CC is made of SS
sticks are SS.
it a basic KJ-66 type engine , calibration is terrible since the pump works everytime different.
ECU is made by Pro-jet.
the guy once contaced us for getting ecu,s to run on his engine.
when i told him they wont work with his Quality pump , he kinda went bazurk.
they where just as good as a hausl..
i do now that NO one had lots of time on them , because of these start problems.
basicly the engine is a good core to get started.
get a hausl pump , Fadec ecu , good solenoids
speed 400 7,4 and it will work fine.
