i hope they will not cahnege the colour , i like it
a red hot engine hhahahaha
it need flames on the cover, yellow ones

I like it for some reason was thinking the red is better then the gold, also note the machining on the compressor.

me too
i like differnt colours
always red is a very nice colour , i realy like it
maybe i will do some special paint on it when i can upgrate it to 12 kg

Yeah, it's all Canadians, sure you guys know EVERYTHING about esthetics.... LMFAOL

I'm getting mine in a week for my UFlash

I mean for us the Mustangs, the Brits their aston martin, Italians their ferrari, Swiss their Patek or Vacheron...... for you Canadians..., just be proud of your flag.

As much as I love Kingtech (and I really do...) I think the colors are ewwwww. Carbon fiber install boards, chrome connectors, powder coated landing gear...and then you see this big ugly turbine sitting in the bay...yuck! At least the gold one has a Mr T vibe going for it. This one is just...strange.

The dang thing looks like it started out red but is rusting out. If they had done the entire thing in the deep nice red of the mounting rings it would be ok.

Hey Sean, Congrats on the new turbine.  I'm color blind so the color looks like a nice shade of gray to me  

I wonder if color has anything to do with performance.

Apparantly for people north of the border, lol

I like a nice looking jet when the cover is off. And a nice flying jet when the cover is on.

Just because a Mustang may be painted pink on the outside doesn't mean it's not steller on the inside. Would I want to drive it? Nope its not my style. Now paint it a nice metallic blue and I'm right there with ya! Its just personal preference.

Thanks Kirk. I'm happy with it. I actually think the color is pretty nice, especially in the sun. The pics dont really do it justice.
I'm sure if someone REALLY felt the biggest obstacle was the color, Kingtech could accomodate them for a price.
Frankly, I didn't give the color any consideration when electing to purchase one but maybe others put more value in it than I do. For me it was customer service, and performance for the price, I think it's a good value in the market of similar sized units. I was pleasantly surprised and pleased by the color, but it wasn't what made the decision for me. I want to run and fly it, not look at it.

Ok enough about the color. It would never stop me from buying as I bought the Gold K80 even though that color also made my eyes bleed.

Now onto serious stuff. Can ANYONE (Barry??) confirm for me the fuel rate this uses? Also what the residual thrust rate is? I think someone mentioned its less than a pound but I would like confirmation.

You can paint it, this is a standard k-80.

K-100Gs flight reports came back with flawless records worldwide, including Sean's

As with the colors, a great many people including myself love the new scheme and if you don't then that's just too bad. We may consider doing a custom scheme, but for sure won't do certain ones like metallic blue or pinkish purple. Incidentally, I've asked the factory to build me a "black widow" (my favorite Cox 049 : ) an all black anodized 180G.

Specs for the 100G has been on our site and residual thrust is 0.85 pound at 43,000.

Regards,
Barry

Wow, I am thoroughly impressed!.. Go Kingtech!!![8D]

Hi Babish,
What is the manufacturer of your Fox glider.
Could you tell me its specs and the manufacture´s website?
Regards
Marcelo

I have one of these now and ran it up today. Really like the clean install. The single fuel line into a swivel pisco fitting is quite nice.
Its quiet like my k80 was, really wish it was louder.

Those old Ram 500 drown me out.

can any one post the throttle time from idle to full throttle ? Is it 4 seconds ?
