@kenupcmac It all depends on your air drag. If you know your typical drag at some given speed then I can calculate how fast you will go with a given thrust.
Estimated at 3 sq. ft body area, 15 pounds thrust should push you 30 to 40 MPH. At 45 pounds thrust you might get to 70 MPH and at 80 pounds thrust you could approach 100 MPH.
BTW - jet engines are neither safe nor easy. Be careful and think things through.
where can i buy?

@HEMAS13 Check out Modellbau USA, they are presently my exclusive distributor.
We have both the H80 and the TJF150 available.

I'm sorry but I have to disagree with you obilaser. I have a 45lb thrust engine on a bike and I get about 60mph out of it top speed.

@paramandans That sounds very cool, do you have a video link?

do you mean 15 pounds thrust wont even act as a speed booster? so how many pounds would i need then ?
i never work with jet before is it easy and safe?
is it good to start with a 15lbs
thanks ^^
