The M70 will be going into a Harlock Viper 140 and the M166 will find a home in a BVM Bandit ARF.

Danny... Thank you for posting the pictures... I can’t wait to fly the mini viper with the new lighter M70XBL... and I’m sure the M166TS will be awesome in the Bandit MKII..

Gaspar.... Thank you for getting these engines to us.. Your customer service is top notch.

For more info on the M70XBL see here JetsMunt Turbines | M70XBL. And for the NEW M166TS see here JetsMunt Turbines | M166TS

Thanks for sharing your good news Danny. Please can you tell us where you will get the tailpipe for the M70XBL from and what size it will be? Does Gaspar provide a pipe size recommendation in the engine manual?

Kind regards

Gordon

Any update on the 70XBL, I'd like to see a running video if anyone has one they can link. Also would like to see it next to coke can as well for size comparison.
