  • How much different is that motor from the RR Spey 511's that hang off the side of my G-III?

  • HI there,

    Architecturally the Spey 101 (RB 168-1 and your Spey 511 are identical with a few alterations to engine mountings and acessories driven from the High and low speed boxes.

  • Both engines feature the same compressor, bothe hp and lp and turbine rotors, the bypass ratio of each is identical at 0.7-1.

    The Spey 101 here has a greater permissable maximum rotational speed than the 511 both at max cont and T/O. Due to this addition of an additional 150 rpm to the max n1 limit the mass flow of the 101 increases to 123lbs/sec as opposed to the 51 with a mass flow of 121lbs, sec. This increases the thrust of the 101 max @ T/O to 600lbs more than the 511 engine.

  • nice video!

    what's the model of plane, of this turbine?

    tks

  • This particular engine was installed in the Buccaneer S2, however many similar varients were produced for different applications including a license built version by the american with a zero stage for the corsair/crusader and a reheated unit (202) for the Phantom along with several exclusively civil varients.

  • Sweet. I don't see movement in the VIGV's - is the ACRA functioning?

    Google: David S Leyman

  • Hi David,

    The only VIGVs on the spey are on the inlet to the HP compressor which of course you are unable to see. The inlet guide vanes that you can see on the front brg housing are fixed. The VIGVs on the hp spool only begin to move at around 80% anyway which I was nowhere near on these runs.

    Glad you like the video, it was fun to do

see all

  • I need this for my scooter!

  • bet that puppy could go pretty fast if you take the blocks off the damn wheels...!!

  • wow where did you get it?

  • @terrafirmajets

    Oh, thanks for the info. I thought the Spey does not has VIGV. Are all Spey engines have VIGV? I did not aware there is any actuation mechanism on those Speys for HS121 Trident. But it might be because I did not pay enough attention to those engines when I was in college. BTW, you are pretty brave, I will not have the gut to run an IC engine like that, let along jet engine. XD

  • i want 1

  • Would have loved to hear it at full throttle....
