Damn! Once someone got into the video with the engine I realized that assembly is much larger than it initially looked. For over a decade I have been waiting to see a scale RC Harrier that was actually capable of VTOL. That unit looks like it will work. Sure as hell sounds like it also.

I , saw Ewald Schuster , did not take off vertically ,just on runway with long long ,take off . It,s more then just a jet eng , to do Harrier go vertically . I,m working on it , but i need more people to join me for this project ,any volunteers ?
at last a proper turbofan, i wonder how much combined frust it gives? and if he has got the balance right between the front cold thrust and rear hot thrust
@saebinfocus It's not "home built" but it is custom built and designed by Ewald Schuster and a team of university students at USC. He has built a number of custom turbofans. Jetcat makes jet-turbines (turbojets) NOT turbofans, which are distinctly different. This model is an actual turbofan, and works similarly to the Rolls Royce Pegasus in the real Harrier.This only works with a turbofan scheme, because you need cold air bypass to drive the front nozzles for vertical flight.
aha I got it, thanks for the comment and value infos Fwright88

What kind of lbs of static thrust would this produce and cost to buy ???

You really should to remove "Jetcat" from the title.They make great engines but this is not one of theirs.

ObjectiveHate, it is realy depressing when you can't find someone who already has all abilities to build modal RC-Harrier with jet-cat engine.
everything is available but not everybody is persistent.
thanks for comment

@saebinfocus You are welcome. I wish I had the money to start and of course finish a project like this.

I wished to start projectin modal RC Harrier, I will help as much I can, only keep in touch on your project arcdirect

He works for swift engineering i believe. He's the only one to be building this scale vtol harrier. Posted at USC currently.

Ewald Schuster ? sorry i don't mean to offended him.
this video is not mine , i took it from some website i don't remember exactly.
but as i see its a good model , though it's not a home built model.
is Ewald Schuster the inventor of vtol models ?

don't offend Ewald Schuster, this is NOT a freakin' jetcat engine! It's scratch built and needs way more talent even to think about it.

i didn't buy it i only uploaded it to youtube cuz i didn't see a similar video when i got it from rcgroups

i got this video from rcgroups , not sure but maybe from this topic :

that is the first time I've ever seen the RC turbo fan jet engine.
