Hi guys, I need some advice. First off I am a turbine newbie and am purchasing my first turbine engine. I have a Velox in need of a power plant and want to know if a JJ1400 would be enough power to fly this plane at a decent speed. Is this engine reliable? Seems to be priced pretty low in relation to other turbines in it's class. Would anyone recommend this turbine? I don't want to waste money by trying to save money. Your input is greatly appreciated.

A Jet Central SUper Bee will fly the Velox, there was one flying at FL Jets this past weekend.
Additionally if you don't want to plunk down the price of a new Super Bee you can find great used Super Bee's here on RCU for what you would pay for a new JJ.
My advice is walk away from the JJ; correction....Run Forest Run!
