Kolibri Turbine reliability
#2
Hi Bob
Kolibri Turbines are mostly used in Europe as it is a german manufacturer.
His Tubines are very reliable and the most efficient ones if you compare the thrust/weight numbers. I only see 2 negative points: To save weight, he only uses gas start. It is Auto gas start. And he is a two man show company. He used to be himself alone, now he has one guy that helps. But he has trouble to deliver on time and forget any service during summertime. It takes quite a while.
The product is super good, But service...
I would wait for the new Jetsmunt M35. Jetsmunt never let me down, if you need something, you send an email and you get your fedex tracking number within a few hours. This is what I call service.

"I would wait for the new Jetsmunt M35."
You'll be waiting a long time! This was announced several years ago and still has yet to surface!
"Jetsmunt never let me down"
However they have let other people down (to my personal knowledge) - as has EVERY turbine manufacturer at some point.
If you just want a small turbine - buy a jetcat P20.
If you NEED the extra performance then get a Kolibri.
