Hallo Carsten,
alomst looks like you know Sandor for a longer time, yes he also told the same about the turbine and he is not the only one.

On the dutch forum we also had that item and a few people told me that they are going to use a P200 in the Viper.
They wanted a turbine for real man. My Answer: I don't need a bigger turbine te be a man



I don't worry, it fly's with a P160 so i guess it will fly with the 18,3 kg thrust Merlin.
Regards Ron.
P.S. Oleo's looking almost as nice as on mine Viper.
