Hi Ron,
Mine is this TJT3000 model, not sure if it's a V1 or V2 or??? i bought it off from an Australian jet flyer called Garry Turner two years ago, it is running well with a FADEC ecu i bought new from FADEC website.

But after reading this thread i'm very happy JETFX is carrying new parts and upgrades for this brand of engine, it's a good-running engine!
I am not sure of it's thrust values also, Marty, do you know what is the thrust for my turbine? I was told it pushes out 30lbs of thrust. I flew this engine with the Skymasterjet F-15 airframe a year ago, empty weight was 14.25kg and still flew well, i know this F-15's dry weight should be around 11kg but it seems to be putting out good amounts of thrust. I was flying an early version F-15 which is heavier.
I am currently painting a new Skymasterjet F18F Super Hornet and will be putting this engine into it. Should the thrust be enough Marty? or is there a thrust upgrade for my engine also? Frankly i only want to do scale flying. If mine puts out 30lbs i am happy already. I have adjusted the ecu to provide even better acceleration/deceleration and tested thoroughly on the bench and it performs very well now.
My F-15 flight video link below, that is my first taste of jet flying, foregive my kangaro landing at the end though, that was only the 2nd flight in the video! LOL!
