Tis is all about the weight. A L-360 horizontally apposed piston engine that tips the scales at 250 lbs can put out 180 HP. Mind you this is one of the most common/advanced/economical GA piston engines out there. HOWEVER, compare this to a 50 lbs turboshaft engine that cranks out 100 HP. NOW put two of those suckers up tandum side by side under a cowling linked with a belt drive to a shaft and prop reduction drive and you now have 200 HP at the expence of 100 lbs and one sick sport craft

@TheJamesMeister But its extremely inefficient and loud compared to a piston engine. Only vibrations would be reduced, but you could just as well use a rotary engine for that (Wankel engine, not radial), it loses some efficiency but can be worth it in reduced vibration.

Nice work, fellas.

I love the sound of a turbine shutting down, don't know why but I can listen to it over and over and never get tired of it.

Great video.
Somehow, I would have expected the engine to be much larger in relation to the size of the propeller, which appears to be variable pitch in this case. Such mechanical devices fascinate me.

I hate it when people post awesome videos and then never get back on or show any information.

I'm inclined to agree with earlier posts... I'd love to power my ultralight with such an engine!
