Title: Re: One should see it to believe it Post by: sharlock on December 16, 2010, 11:04:54 AM Yes this might be new for you... but in real you can power almost any thing with a turbine. I have seen a turbine powered heli back in 2003 & it was huge.. powered by a Jetcat, the only problem is they are expensive.. ;D

I wonder how do these guys handle the regular maintainence of these turbines. I recall that most of the turbines need to be sent for bearing replacement/mainenance after 25 hours.
