Fte t-500
T-500 with 3 hours and 25 minutes run time. I have owned this since new. It has been flown in one model and never crashed. I pulled it out this year to fly it but It has been giving me trouble, it will shut-down if given quick throttle commands, I do believe that this was a problem with my fuel system in the aircraft. Everything is included to run it except fuel. The bearings are smooth and there is no damage to turbine or compressor blades. A few upgrades from stock, high speed starter, Flight Works 200C fuel pump, and a NiMh 3000Mah battery.
This is sold as is, I am setting up a test stand to run it again with a zero resistance fuel feed. I will post more details later.
Update: I ran it today with just the fuel line in a mason jar, it runs like a top. I moved the throttle from many settings as fast as I could and it kept up. I would say there is no problem with it.
