J1600R Over heat and shutdown !
 
Dear All,
I've just bought a new jet engine from PST. It is J1600R. When I started the engine, everything was fine and the temperature was about 560-600 degree C at the idle RPM (35.000 rpm). Then I started to power up, it was fine but at the top of RPM ( 120.000rpm) the engine became over heat and shutdown automatically at the 840 degree C. After that, I checked the temperature sensor and I made sure that it stayed correct position (about 5mm in the tail cone). I tried again but the engine was over heat again. Then I tried to pull the temperature sensor to 2mm in tail cone, unfortunately, the problem has not been solved. Would you please help me to solve this problem ?

Thanks All,
Eric Trinh

Dear kumpol,
I set the EGT Probe to 1mm but I could not solve the problem. The engine still overheat. Should I send the engine back to Thailand ? If I should, would you please send me the PST address infor, therefore I can send it to you.

Hi all

Also mine PSTTurbine J1600R overheats. I crashed two jets after take off because the turbine flamed out. Both times the shutdown data said temperature 804&deg; and 803&deg;C. Did PST fix this problem?
After I contacted PST a year ago after the first jet crashed, they didn't mention the problem unfortunately. Now I crashed two jets and lost confidence of the J1600R turbine.

Anyone the same experience or further information about the reliability of the J1600R turbine?

Thanks

Manuel
