    Gentle 3D With the 700 Turbine

    Had a little trip to the field today, it was -2 and a light 5mph or so breeze, and christ did it get your fingers numb quickly! Anyway, we had the 700 turbine out, and recorded a short flight. It's nothing that exciting, but I still love flying it - the smell of Jet A1 is like nothing else

    Crap this sounds cool. I want one!

    Edit: Just finished watching it, it sounded cool at spool up, it sounded even cooler all the way through! Nice video! Need to hurry up and learn to fly properly, not that I'll be buyig a 700 for my jump from MCPX haha. I can dream!

          It has plenty of power, but it is the best part of 7kg all up! It has also just had an ECU upgrade so it has Kero start now, no gas on board. It has meant we have to start again with the tweaks to get full power and response out of the engine, so there is a little more to come

                  That's the first time I have seen a turbine doing 3d. Excellent.

                    Think its about 75p /litre plus the aeroshell oil
