Re: King Tech turbines The Kingtech 170E/F isn't exactly a slouch...accelerates pretty quickly from an idle imho. If i were in the market for an 80 newton turbine, the VT 80 would be at the top of my list as Peter carries them and he has a very very good price: http://www.altecare.com/jetsmuntvt80.htm And you can run it with a good 2 stroke oil. |

Re: King Tech turbines Might have something to do with this: http://www.jets-munt.com/pb/M140/M140.html Comapred to this: http://www.kingtechturbines.com/stor...&products_id=3 The Kingtech price is lower but thrust is less, installed weight/size and fuel consumption is more. PaulD |

Re: King Tech turbines I have helped set up 3 K80's and they all came with very conservative ramp settings from factory. Once these were opened up the acceleration was pretty good - certainly way better than a P70 but not as good as some of the newer stuff like the VT80 from jets munt. If acceleration is really your concern, and maybe weight, I would buy the VT 80 for the few bucks more. Good solid running turbine though. PaulD |

Re: King Tech turbines Noiser is NOT a downside IMO. The Jetcats are getting so quiet you can barely hear the things. I want my ears to bleed!!!  The sound is the entire reason I want to fly turbines. Quote:

Re: King Tech turbines There isn't one turbine manufacturer that hasn't had issues at one time or another I have 2 K140's kero start and am very happy with them I would buy another without hesitation I have owned 21 turbines over the years from different manufacturers JPX, RAM, AMT,JETCAT,PST,SIMJET, GOLDEN WEST Just my 2 cents Ted |
