Jody Olivent Hey Jody. Mate I’m in love with this beast. Wish it was my bird 😉. 5Mw, omg that’s insane. I’ve never worked on any turbines before. The Mosquito chopper is so cool, but I don’t think it would lift me off the ground lmao 🤣

Those rpm figures are insane. Nice bit of kit.

My stock 700 scares the crap outta me let alone having to deal with it being turbine powered!

G'day mate. Yes I agree with you. These RC choppers can be a little scary at times. I've been flying choppers since the late 90's and they still get my heart racing. Unfortunately I don't own a turbine, but I've got 3 x gas (90 size) and 1 electric 550. Cheers, Aaron.

Hey Luke. Yes mate the conversion was done by Ivor. Ivor is a fitter and turner who used to work for TAA or Ansett back in the day. The Wren 44 pretty much bolts in to where the 90 motor would have gone, but he got those base plates and cradle parts cnc machined from a mate. Some nice parts on it. Yeah, very nimble and rock solid in the air. This was filmed last Sunday when it was real gusty. I think XM2 and Crudd need a turbine ;-)

Okay maybe someone can point me in the right direction I am looking to buy a turbine powered helicopter but search results have brought up nothing. I don't want one that sounds like a turbine like those airwolf or whatever they are. I want a turbine powered helicopter. Can they be purchased ready to go or almost ready to go? Or will I have to buy the turbine separate then assemble it? Any help with where I would look would be appreciated

Hi, they are header tanks. They feed the turbine directly and the main tank keeps the header tanks constantly full to the brim. This stops air from entering the fuel system and helps to eliminate a “flame out”. Cheers 🍻
