Default Kingtech 140F

I did my first flight with a kingtech 140F in my old rookie. I got it to run on diesel and no flames at all on start up. The throttle response is scary from 3 clicks to full power in less than 2 seconds, maybe one second, it is the fastest I have ever seen. The power is amazing; I fly around at about 1/3 throttle used to fly at 1/2 to 2/3 with my 120. I am very pleased with the Kingtech. Thanks Berry

Hooker I don’t have variable thrust. It is a old rookie but the kingtech woke it up.

Maiden flight of my Futura 1.9m on a K140F today. Fairly undramatic except for the deadstick landing but that only happened because I spent 3 minutes on the ground trying to fit the stupid canopy [:@] Didn't go above 60% on the stick but still fairly quick. Thanks to Marc for his unique video camera skills.

Well done Dominic.
As this one is a former EDF I thought it was appropriate

Can I ask what size tank you are using and flight time you get? I was using 2.7L yesterday with 1L smoke so probably only gave me 7-8 minutes.
