RE: Ultra Bandit instruction manual
Does the olympus HP need a special install kit for the UB? I can see 4 different ones listed on the website. Are they all different in size?

RE: Ultra Bandit instruction manual
Seems when I got mine the P-200/Olympus bypass were one and the same. I had to open up the bypass considerably to get the Olympus to fit. I'm not sure how they could make the bypass much larger but maybe they now have one specifically for the Olympus.

RE: Ultra Bandit instruction manual
We only have one bypass tube for the Ultra Bandit Olympus installation. It is design specific for the Ultra Bandit, and is very different than the other BVM bypass tubes. The Ultra Bandit turbine installation kit Part number is K7300-22, and includes the tailpipe and all mounting hardware, and the bypass tube and cover.
Here are some photos of a JetCat P-180/P200 bypass tube it with a P-180 (Not a P-180RX...it now has a P-200) and smoke system tubes mounted. Notice the "beak" on the inlet and the plywood support on the bottom?
All of the Ultra Bandit tubes feature the same inlet "beak".

RE: Ultra Bandit instruction manual
You still have not specirfied which bypass tube you have.
There are four different Ultra Bandit engine installation kits:
K7300-24 for the JetCat P-180RX
K7300-21 for the JetCat P-200's
K7300-20 for the Olympus'
K7300-27 for the Jet Central Mammoth
All are priced at $575.00 USD.
Which one of these installation kits do you have?

Harley, I will not be able to provide this info as the engine install kit was already installed when I purchased this semi turnkey kit. I am taking delivery of this plane in jet power and we will put an olympus inside and check if everything fits. Hope it does.

Ragz,
You could contact the seller and ask him for the S/N, or provide the name of the seller to me in a PM as soon as possible.
By the way, if the airframe has a JetCat bypass tube and tailpipe installed, it will be a very tight fit, as the JetCat P-200 is 5.07" (128.8 mm) in diameter and 13.658" (346.17 mm) long.
The Olympus HP is 5.16" (131 mm) in diameter and 15.118" (384 mm) long, an increase of 2.2 mm in diameter, and and 37.8 mm over the P-200. The cooling airflow could become an issue.
I suggest removing the JetCat engine installation kit, selling it and install the Olympus kit P/N K7300-20.
I have no doubt that the Oly would perform better in the correct bypass tube.
