Great video. Yes things are much different now with all the new high tech jets/turbine engines. When I started turbines it was non AutoStart using the gas. And power to weight has increased as my old ATJ 120Ti is bigger and weighs more than a newer 170 size Swiwin!
Flew ducted fan back in the day - late 80’s early 90’s. Got out of the hobby up until about 2 years ago and considering getting into flying jets again. Thanks for the video
Great overview. Thanks
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Great video Andrew.... Can't wait to hear her running
This is such an awesome video!
Fantastic video mate. I am an Aussie working over here in Florida and Bahamas. Flying field is Markham Park. I've ticked off rc nitro GT with some racing, a few years of rc gas planes and 3D dedication, 2 yrs of electric HELI's and just bought my first EDF foamie 70mm. NEXT, Turbine! Appreciate the awesome video, and thanks for clarifying some of the simplicity involved in a jet setup.Cheers
Go the turbine!
Great information thank you
Hi to make a spare port in the Rx use Powerbox micro match on flaps that way you free up a port and put an I gyro 3e in with the GPS works sweet on my viper jet
Nice run through Andrew. Good luck with the maiden.
maiden went well! Came home in one piece. Even landed on the runway!
Great info Andrew, but I'm disappointed you didn't sing the recap; the turbine's connected to the ...air trap; the air trap's connected to the ....fuel tanks; etc
G’Day Andrew from Denver.
I just hope those tiny little guys in the cockpit know hot to fly the thing ! ✈✈✈✈
Just a thought, I have converted from Jet A1 to household kerosene. I run Jetcat turbines and have had no ill effects from doing so, still mixed with turbine oil in the same ratio. The difference is only the lack of very nasty added ingredients in Jet A1. And a bit easier to purchase.
It will run but sometimes the quality of the kero is not the same. Plenty of people have done it.
Great information for those looking to get into jets. Are you going to do a video on the plane ie is it marketed as a "trainer". What makes a trainer ???
I don't think any jet would be considered as a trainer but the model is a Skymaster Viperjet 2m wingspan. For the average pilot with a bit of experience it is an easy plane to fly but these jets don't float around especially with the higher wing loading due to heir weight.
Where do you guys flight this beauties ? I’m living in Sydney and I would like to see this jets in action. I want to get into Rc jets. Do you know a reliable shop where there can provide all related in jets ? Thanks you, really well explained video
Where can I buy a turbine? For real, I have built couple of edf jets but never tried turbines, do you know where can I buy one (turbine engine)
Where do you live? You can search for brands such as Jetcat, Kingtech, Swiwin and find your local dealer.
@@flatoutrc Actually I'm not from usa, but I have a really good friend of mine who live in usa, so I thought of ordering online and ship it to him and he will ship it to me from usa, if the site doesn't ship internationaly!
Ripper video mate, I noticed you don't run a redundant reciever? Is that just personal preference or you simply don't need to?
Thanks. The Spektrum receiver I am using has 4 satellite receivers connected to it. Found they work well and plenty of redundancy. Every plane 30cc up and I own has the same kind of system. That big receiver box where the servos plug in is actually not the receiver. The satelitte receivers plug into that box. Each receiver is oriented in different directions to cover all angles. I should have explained this in this video.
Can i have a go?
every electronic part has a "life time". If the life time is over, you will have a crash...an very expensive one
It a shame it’s not here anymore bahaha it mack by the way
The words I don't know in stills zero confidence
LiFe ... Lithium Iron battery ...
LiFe not Lithium Ion in this one.
Best thing about turbine jets is when the crash they crash in a big way and a good fire
Unwatchable because of your weird blackout cuts.
