Here is the heli package. Who is going to be the first to put two of them in a model offshore cat?

Microturbines are amazing.
We designed and built a twin turbine model aircraft for an SAE competition in college. They sounds just like the real thing. :) |
Whats the price tag on that little bugger?
Im thinking a turbine powered skateboard :D |
Approximately 5K for basic engines, and can go up from there depending on fuel management, electronics, transmissions, etc.
|
They're quite extraordinary...a little 3 pound turbine can produce about 40 pounds of thrust. That would be plenty for a skateboard scooter. :D :D :D
|
I'd seen the jets for years, but this is the first turboshaft I've seen.
|
50,000 to 115,000 rpms. :eek:
You need lots of gear reductions. Typical idle is about 30,000 rpms. |
I'm gonna put one on a Scooter so I can kick GlassDave's ass in the 04 KeyWest Scooter Race.:D
|
well . . i guess i'll hafta build a TWIN turbine one than :D :D :cool:
actually i wanna know who's gonna be the first to hook one of these up to a blender :D :D |
