An H80 micro turbine engine is started and run. The engine is running at 130% rated power and producing ~ 105 pounds of thrust. The photographer (an experienced fighter jet pilot) is surprised by the exhaust danger zone.

  • @circusboy90210 I don't use facebook... You can contact me directly via rob@obilaser.com

  • @obilaser would like to face book you this interface in clumsy my email is my username@gmail.com

    

  • @circusboy90210 Presently, my largest production engine is the TJF150. It will produce 150 pounds thrust all day long. It can produce up to 175 pounds thrust for short duration. The TJF150 is 8" in diameter and 20" in length, it weighs 22 pounds

  • @obilaser what is the biggest unit you can make in that weight size range.

  • @circusboy90210 Yes, a pair of the TJF150's would power the BD-5 very well. Just one TJF150 would be a little bit underpowered.

  • @obilaser so if I wanted to use that in a db-5j i would have no problem??

  • @circusboy90210 These engines ARE NOT FAA certified. It is unlikely that these engines will engines will ever see enough civilian use to justify the cost of certification. Until sufficient sales are generated to justify such expenses, these engines must be utilized as "Experimental".

  • are these units faa certified?
