Top Gun flying jet ANSWER 54

On Tuesday, June 2, 2009, came the Sanderson Field RC Flyers (SFRCF) Top Gun Charles Kentfield fly his jet reaction 54. How much space in his truck, cast and support include equipment? Everything!

The first element of the truck had to be unpacked an assembly of home a piece of stovepipe mounted on a wooden stand. This meeting, I learned later, is located directly behind the turbine jet exhaust flame without a "hot start cases contain lead. A "hotstart "occurs when excess fuel or liquid propane enters the engine before starting (the engine is flooded).

Other units followed, including the body and wings jet. Everyone present was as Charles, the company has declared the end of the jet, the turbine J600 fascinated. The turbine was manufactured by PST JETS. After unloading the truck, the wing of the airplane was secured.

During the preparation of the jet for the flight began with a battery check. There are two batteries on the plane. APack provides turbine engine management system (TEMS) and other powers the radio. The TEMS controls the operation of the turbine. Refueling Jet initiated by propane from a pressurized external filter.

While starting the turbine, propane burns when the lights glow plug - and the turbine begins to turn the turbine, if the right speed and the temperature is reached, start the TEMS, the fuel pump turbine and the turbine starts kerosene in flames. But first,The aircraft must be fueled with kerosene.

While refueling, Charles attempted to make sure that no system of air-fuel remained in the bubble: a bubble of air, the engine stopped. Kerosene was pumped into the system until it has met a condensate tank outside the bladder.

An important point in the pre-flight test was to check the air pressure to the tank pulls. Before departure, Charles the Ground Display Terminal (GDT connected). The GDT is used torun the program, monitor, or on the TEMS. After completion of the pre-flight preparation was Charles began the boot process.

The turbine was a bit 'hot flooded causing a spectacular start, with exhaust flames. Now appreciate the value of the stove pipe "flame containment unit." These events show the importance of a wizard, of course, with a fire extinguisher. In this case, the extinguisher was not necessary and the aircraft suffered no damage.

Just over an hourafter arrival on the field, the turbine was started and Charles rolled ANSWER 54 of the catwalk. Moments later, the jet in the air.

Charles landed the jet rolled off the track and after a successful flight of seven minutes. Everyone present enjoyed the first flight and was treated at a later flight. It 'hard My Thrill as the jet flew by: The sound of the turbine sound, articulate, like a real jet.
