Calling it 7 mins average flight time, thats 265 flights , and taking the complete kit cost from jet legend at 2960 dollars thats 11 bucks a flight, and the 200 will keep flying for ever , it's like an 496 cubic inch V8,..... bags of power and turning slowly ,it should last forever....... so keep up the flights Mike... you can't wear it out...and it says something for the longevity of JL products, they are not five minute one flight wonders....

Hi guys,

First of all sorry for my english, i am from austria , and now my problem.
Did all of you mount your turbine on the original position, because when i am mounting my turbine (Frank Tj70/16) and my pipe on the
original position, the pipe is looking downwards at the end, so the turbine and the pipe are not in a horizontal position together. I alwas thougt
they have to..?. Did you mount the turbine a little bit lower or did you fix it on the original position?. If you dont know what i mean, please let my know, than i make a little drawing to show you my problem.

Waiting for your input

kind regards

Andi,

alles normal einbauen, allerdings hab ich das Pipe gegen eins von Turbo getauscht ...

Hallo Stefan,

Vielen Dank für deine Antwort, habe schon paar mal vergeblich versucht dich zu erreichen (mail,telefon,rc-network)
Habe auf dein Anraten selbstverständlich auch mein Original Rohr gegen eines von Turbo getauscht, allerdings sitzt bei mir die Turbine äußerst vorne um Blei zu sparen, somit ist auch das Rohr etwas länger.

Vielleicht könntest du mir bitte nochmal deine Auschläge inkl. Expo schicken bzw hier posten. Bin schon am überlegen bei den Flächen den Überstand der "Hohlkehlen" etwas wegzufräsen, da der Auschlag nicht wirklich groß ist, hast du das auch gemacht? Vielleicht hast du auch ein Foto, wie du deine Klappenzylinder im Rumpf befestigt hast. Ich habe mir den Einbau "gespart" leider, jetzt muss ich ihn selber machen und der ist etwas tricky finde ich.

Hi Guys,

I am just finishing my F16. I set my CG to 230mm, i have put all the equipment including the turbine as far as possible forward, but i
still need some weight (300g) in the nose. How did you do?. Did anyone of you weigh the F16?.

greetings

Andreas

i used a fuel tank n filled it with the needed amount of water for nose weight to bring it into balance, the fuel tank can have hoses coming from it n u can add or remove water till u get it balanced too ur fancy lol, 230mm cg is a good place to start with for sure my freind , if u go to ijets.com u can see how everything n mine is installed,

imperio

My Feedback: (5)

almost forgot, i never weighed mine i knew it was a fat ******* when i saw it sitting on the tarmac squeezing them tires n landing gear springs loaded with fuel stock tanks n a 12oz headed tank, wow! i knew if i weighed it i would be pissed so i just flew the dang thing n it flew pretty good with the CG MOVED WHERE IT SHOULDVE BEEN ALONG TIME AGAO JETLEGEND! lol, yup flews sweet with the cg at 230mm n no problems on rotation/ie getting the nose up when ur on the power hard, then on the other hand its a lifting body fusalage so figuring wing loading is difficult, but i think its almost identical to skymaster n diminsions n the actually give the wing load information if ur interested,

Hi Imperio,

Can you resend a link? I tried to get into ijets.com or www.ijets.com but so such web page exists...

Thanks.

i-complete.com.my try that aparently i screwed up sorry bout that lol, my f-16 had a blackmamba n it, ne ways hes got my pics out the ying yang on there of my thunderbird JL 1/6th f-16 also known as the thunder chicken,

kasi122

Hi imperio,

Cant believe, that you fly the F16 with a 14kg thrust turbine??, is it enough, i am afraid to fly it with my 16kg thrust turbine, because
we only have a 80m hard field and 100m gras before an after the hard field!!. To save weight i m gona use only the 2 delivered tanks with 1800ccm per tank, thats 3,6 liters at all, i hope that will will enough. i bought my F16 this year and jet-legend now sets the cg to 225mm. They made the cg mark on the fuselage and on the delivered 1:1 plan, so they learned.

yes it flys it very well, it doesnt have unlimiyed vertical right of the ground but once u get the gear up u can build up some speed n climb like a rocket straight up no problem, most turbines once moving forward at a good speed have far more thrust than static because of the available ram air? most folks dont take that fact into considerations, n mine got off the grass feilds no problem no flaps

kasi122

Hi Imperio,

That sounds good to me ,
Do you use an extra tank or only the provided?

imperio

My Feedback: (5)

just a 12oz header tank

THAT WILL GIVE YOU UNLIMITED VERT AS SOON AS YOU ROTATE!

jet legend stuff is very fragile, i dont think u wanna kick its ass to much other wise it will cost u a turbine engine because they r known to breakup when the rudder rips off n takes the whole ass end of the model elavators n all, skymast has some rudder failures but u gotta really be hauling ass n usauly just ripps abput 3/4 of the rudder off n ya can still land n theres no other damage, but it takes like 300mph n a dive to do it to a skkymaster, ur pushing it at 150mph with jetlegends rudder settup

michaelsarysz

Take the rudder servo and put it in the midle of the fin. The bottom set up is no god your right.

Also, go over every nut and bolt in that jet. Take the nose gear out and put lock tight blue in all the little screws.

Also, with the p 200, not for top speed , more for power maneuvers. You can flip that thing around, high alpha, controlled stalled,
Love itt!!
