Default RE: Can't decide on which turbine...

ORIGINAL: Zagzoo

I converted my byron bd-5 to turbine, the dry weight is going to be 18-20 lbs dry. I am trying to decided on which turbine to put in it:

Jet Central Rabbit (warranty)
Merlin-90 (size and thrust)
Jet Cat P80se (price)

this is going to be my first turbine engine. Sorta burned out trying to figure which engine would work, and down the road I have a more selection to put in something else.

Thanks
Friend of mine had one with a Jetcat P-70.... Plenty of power and flew great. I would go with the P-80SE.. Great price for an awesome motor that will run and run and run and run like a champ.
No need for some of these warranty programs... Buy quality once and be done with it...

Like the "RonCo. Oven" Start it and forget it!!!!
