JetCat Mystery - P120 or P160?
Hello,
I purchased a used older JetCat engine a couple of years when I decided to jump into turbines. It was advertised as a P120 Kero. I've run the engine numerous times on the ground and it seems to run fine, however those runs are relatively short. enough to run through a ~20 oz. tank. My question is that the ECU V5.0W has P120 check box selected on the unit, however when I power the ECU, the GSU reports P160. Which is correct? Does it matter? Did someone just select the wrong engine in the ECU and I need to change it to 120?
Engine serial number is 0872.
Thanks in advance,
-Jorden

Thanks! That's good to know! That's too much for this Boomerang Sprint. Calls for a 80N-120N. I do have a P80, but it's a propane start. Looks like the same size can. I keep hearing about "turning down the power" on a turbine. Is that done by adjusting the Max RPM? Is that doable with this P160? If so what Max RPM would I use? Any other parameters need to be adjusted?
