Amazing! Can't wait for the test flights.

Today, I install the Pegasus to the test bench and make some test. The test includes max thrust test and vector nozzles rotation test under max power. The max thrust is 38kg when core k210 turbine in 115000rpm. The k210 can run max 120000rpm, another extra 4-6kg can be estimated. I'll tune rpm higher step by step after I dissemble it and check internal parts for safety.

I also check the temperature of carbon casing and gearbox, the max temp is under 50C degree when engine is running and under 60C degree (no fan flow ) after engine is shutdown.

The thrust center position of vertical take off mode is also checked in the same time and its position changing versus different thrust level is in 10mm. This data can help me to determine where to mount the engine in the airframe and the fuel tank location.

RC Universe needs a like button!!

Will the AV-8B be at Florida jets in March?

Would be worth going to Jetpower 2018 just to see this fly

I didn't see this on Facebook. Amazing work!

the Prototype of AV-8 now installed the Pegasus and finished the intake, I hope teat fly the VTOL at Chinese long holiday,

👍👍👍

yes, we had tested the AV-8B 2 time, but still had some problem need to save it, after save these problem that we will post some pictures here , Thank you,

yes, the Tornado is awesome jet and it still in my project list.,

What is that black plug under wraps behind the Harrier?

A huge f14

Congratulations Likai and Anton! Getting closer and closer
