@LarryCanFly WHAT !???! May I ask, are feeding that turbine for fuel ?? Never seen that much smoke out of a turbine. Years ago, I repowered a 29 ford with an old Boeing B-210 from an old Army "Bird Dog" (ala 50's program). I could smoke the hides off them rear "cheater" slicks with the best of the Big inch V-8's of the era (early 60's). I see it's been about 1 1/2 yrs since you posted this video..are you still with this project or ?? Great job and video..Thanks & stay with it.

the cool part will be with the turbine engine it will sound like a ol' Huey
Do you have N2, ITT, or EGT gauges? It's real dangerous if you don't. Stay safe!

@SketchRC I have only EGT (Exhaust Gas Temp), you can see it at Youtube search: "larrys gas".

What is the present empty weight of this new turbine configured ship? It looks like it should have lost weight (and a reduction gear?) in the transition from 2 cylinder piston to turbine.

@r22accipiter Yes! Yes! It came in at 245 pounds. FAA FAR Part 103 allows 254 lbs, which means I can add 9 pounds of goodies.

Larry, my name is Jenson. I'm 22 years old. Just starting out, about to leave the home nest and make my way in life. Leave for Coast Guard boot camp here in a few days. My dream is to fly helicopters some day - and if I'm lucky enough - to own one! After watching theses videos I feel so much more capable of achieving that dream.
I also just found my definition of "Cool old guy!" :) Take care and fly safe sir! Your vids bring huge smiles to my face!
