RE: The funny thing about jets today.....
[quote]ORIGINAL: YellowAircraft [quote]ORIGINAL: BlackHorseBob [quote]ORIGINAL: YellowAircraft [quote]ORIGINAL: PhilYabelli All of these manufacturer have had issues, but FEJ has had many more than the others.  Part of it is the reps and shills.  You won't hear much about a Skymaster problem, because they are the flavor of the moment.  Notice that BVM does not sell all the SM products, they don't sell the EDF ones, as an example.  Ever wonder why? But FEJ is the one with such major problems all the time. [/quote] Reps and shills, huh? This from a troll with a fake name. [/quote] I think Phil is Curtis from Easy Tiger Models not sure but have a hunch [/quote] Ha! Far more than a hunch on this side! I'm certain of it. I even wrote a poem for ol' Curtis! [b]''There once was a little TROLL named Curtis... Whose models were are so lame they might hurt us... He made a fake name, But I knew him all the same, Cuz he's as easy to smell as a turd is!''[/b] But here's the thing: He claims his name is Phil Yabelli (a play on words for 'fill your belly'). He even complained in the thread that I was making fun of his name and accused me of stalking him when I mentioned that there's no Phil Yabelli's in any place I can find (including the turbine waiver page). He claimed, and not in a joking way, that that was really his name. Either it is (and he's telling the truth and deserves as much respect as any other REAL person here), or it is not and he's a trolling liar who shouldn't have any attention paid to his weirdo, cowardly pseudonym. SO... ''Phil'', if you can PROVE that you're really Phillip Yabelli, you'll not only get a big, fat apology from me but.....wait for it......you'll also get a FREE Y/A kit. Your pick from a Starfire, F-4, A-4, Stingray, or F-18 Single! Just email a notarized scan of your state-issued driver's licence and a utility bill, and the jet is yours! Oh, and don't give me any ''I don't like any of those kits'' because you can sell it for cash on here. So, there it is. You've been challenged to identify yourself multiple times and now you have an incentive. [:)] [/quote] +1!!

RE: Emergency safety alert: FEJ big F-18F Superhornet
[quote]ORIGINAL: Grodus First thing that caught my attention in the video was ''2 Jet Central Rhinos'' . I thought holy cow!, this thing is a monster so I went to FEJ's website to see just how big it is. Largest F18 I can find on their site is a 1/6 scale that recommends 45-51lbs of thrust. Is this the model that was equipped with 2 Rhinos? Cody [/quote] This would need a LTMA? Inspected? 72lbs of thrust, what is the weight?

RE: Question to Jet Event Contest Directors
[quote]ORIGINAL: LGM Graphix I've seen this debate many times, I have also seen people turned away at jet events. I think if we followed the basic definition of Jet Propulsion it would clear many things up. First of all, (and this is my opinion only), a JET rally is for models of ''JET aircraft'' By this logic, it is my personal opinion that turboprops do not belong any more than turbine powered helicopters belong. Lets think of it this way, IF somebody were to host a Turbine powered helicopter event, and you showed up with a Bandit, would you expect to be allowed to fly simply because it is turbine powered? I think not. We lovingly refer to our model turbines as Jet engines, but for the purpose of a jet rally, it is for Jet aircraft. Our turbines are more correctly Gas Turbines. Jet propulsion can be achieved via high velocity exhaust gasses, or the expulsion of a fluid (for all intents and purposes lets remember that air is considered fluid). This means that ICDF, EDF, pulse jet, or turbine power is accepted as a form of propulsion in a model representation of a JET AIRCRAFT. Whether powered by a gas turbine or not, a tucano, turbo beaver, turbo raven, etc is NOT a Jet Aircraft, it is still a propellor driven aircraft. While very cool, and possibly acceptable for a noon time demo, it is no more a JET aircraft than a turbine powered helicopter. When I go to a Jet event, that is what I'm there for, Jets, it's not that I don't like or appreciate other Gas turbine powered aircraft, but there are hundreds if not thousands of events across the world where those models will fit in. Remember, you are asking about attending a JET rally. Not a Turbine rally. It's no different than attending an electric event like SEFF and hoping you could fly your turbine powered or internal combustion engine powered aircraft. Not going to happen. In the spirit of comraderie, I suppose it would be up to the CD's discretion, but in actual fact, you are putting the CD in a very difficult spot by asking if he will allow your non ''Jet'' aircraft to fly, even if it WAS powered by a gas turbine. It's not fair to put a CD in that position. Some have claimed that a tucano can fly as fast as many jets, and while I believe that to be true, so can many hotliner electric gliders, so can a QM40 pylon racer, so can many electric pylon racers, would it be acceptable to fly those at a jet event simply because they can keep up? Stay in the spirit of the intended event and fly aircraft which the event is put on for. Jet rallies are for Jets, simple as that. This of course is one mans opinion and I do appreciate all forms of flight, so don't get me wrong, I'm certainly not knocking somebody else's project, just expressing my opinion as a past CD, as well as an attendee of events.

RE: BD-5J Project
[quote]ORIGINAL: FormerCA. Frank Question How does the JC Rabbit compare to the Jetcat P100? This Gen2 version is supposed to be a couple pounds lighter. Thx Ron [/quote] Ron, Actaully the JC rabbit is too mch at 20#. I only used full throttle for take off, then I leave the throttle at 5/8. You can do what every you want at 5/8 throttle. BTW if you go this route (20lbers+) you need to redo the thrust line or you will have trouble. I have a post here showing what I did to change it (post #139) Frank
