I was surprised they did not even mention Tam or Tamjets!
I found is strange also. Tam next time don't teach them how to used or start the turbine

And why did they keep showing them using the parameter adjustment knob on the transmitter to vary the electric motor RPM instead of just using any channel control lever (like the throttle stick)????

Doesn't surprise me, if you notice on Mythbusters, they never mention names of commercial / retail enterprise. Even when they use cars on the show, they take the time to cover the emblems / manufacture names on the cars. When they use beer, or softdrinks, they put mythbusters labels on all the cans.
However, I haven't seen this episode yet, so I'm trying to refrain from reading the thread, not succeeding obviously, but trying LOL

they did same the brand name but I think they got the model wrong, it looked like a P-60SE to me

They called Bob about this a long time ago, he told them they would need support, looks like tam did a great job as usual.

Tori text me lastnight while it air. He had so much fun with the skateboard and want to play with the Jet Power Skateboard again sometime.

Even it only 10 minutes show with Jet Power blowing the sail.
It took 2 full days for filming.
At the end of the filming with the skateboard.
Tori really had a blast ride around the parking lot. He able get up to 30 mph doing couple laps.
He did fall off the skaterboard and med is there put band aid on him.

Actually it was just on again tonight @ 10 pm Central time. I will keep looking on my guide and post here if it's going to be on again. So far it's not going to be on again through next Tuesday the 24th.

Actually I can do even better than that. I still have it on my DVR and can put it on a DVD for anyone who wants to pay for the DVD/case and shipping. It won't be in HD but it will be a good copy. Anyone who wants one PM me.

Very cool! I know Grant from his days at ILM, he was the second in line to drive around the LFL R2-D2 if need be (if Don Bies was out).

I also know Adam (well before Mythbusters started), he is a huge movie prop guy and also worked at ILM. He has been a customer of mine also over the years. I hope to meet them when I go up to Skywalker Ranch sometime this year.
