Hello
I'm looking to increase my hangar adding a second turbine, i wanted to buy a second hand one, occasionally i see offers from G2 versions and i tried to search for the differences between the models but im unable to find those.
Can someone point me to where i can read the differences between those versions? Or tell me those¿
Regards,
Jose

G2 is the entry of the Kingtech ÉCU external to the motor, and brush motor on both the Starter and Pump
G3 was limited to a couple small motor
G4 ECU in the motor with DRM (data relay modul) pump is still brush, but starter is brushless and the FOD screen is integrated
G4+ same as G4 with the added Brushless pump….

Starting from the G2 version I believe, KT moved away from the older xicoy ECU and into their own version of it with color GSU.

The gold color on the can just means this engine has many hours... New engines are dark brown, then the paint slowly fades starting from the exhaust side into a more yellow/golden hue. The bracket dissipates heat differently and protects the paint a little bit more, so if you move the bracket on an engine with a few hours of run time, you'll be able to see the mark left on the old position.
