FlexJet Pro Turbine Conversion Assembly Notes
Turbine aircraft should be fitted with Wheel Brakes. These are drop in units!
NOTE: that KingTech recommends running the engine outside the model with the assembled equipment tray and fuel system. Flex Innovations used this procedure and had complete success.
Turbine Selection
- At the time of this writing, Flex Innovations has tested the KingTech K45 G3 and have found it to be a perfect match.
- The Zicoy X45 is very similar, and its mounting was considered in the design. It should be easily fitted as well.
- Flex Innovations in no way recommends turbines with greater than 4.5kg thrust.
- Turbines have very high exhaust gas velocities and can reach high speeds. Throttle management should be used.
