Large model Turbine Engines

Pilots -
whats wrong with using a P 160 and setting it to 12lbs ?
It sure would run a long time..........

RE: Large model Turbine Engines

A couple of things that come to mind are that it is heavier than a 12 lb engine, and the residual thrust at idle is higher.

RE: Large model Turbine Engines

Not to mention the really tight squeeze into many 12lb thrust class airframes!

RE: Large model Turbine Engines

That'll be a very expensive 12 lb thrust engine......
