Nothing beats the sound of turbine and rotor blades
No it does not! Amazing sound!
Merlin engine? Or multiple Merlin's
Nice display there Jeff! Certainly not as agile as an electric but that sound!!!!
Also for an American I’m so pleased you pronounce the word Turbine as it is spelt. Most people in the power industry from your side of the world pronounce it Tur-bin.
Thank you! Yeah, definitely not the power of an electric it I would say power of a nitro. Thank you! I personally HATE when people say Turbin it’s a Turbine! lol
Wow beautiful beautiful. That take off was super precise.
Thank you! It was a fun project! I appreciate that!
Awesome build, congratulations! 😎👍
Thank you! It was a very fun project
ahhh, nothing better than seeing my question be proved right infront of my eyes, still sounds amazing. love it and congrats!
Thank you! Honestly, I can’t stop flying this thing. It is so unique and different. The next flights I will push it more and more.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 makes sense why you cant stop flying, i swear that sound is like a drug. and yeah the smooth 3d is like nothing else, just perfection honestly
That is awesome! man I’d love to see it in person. I’ve enjoyed watching this project start to finish and I’m looking forward to more flight videos keep them coming.
thank you! it was a fun project and I had a blast with all the challenges. super glad I could build this. I’m glad you enjoyed the videos! definitely more to come! I’ll be taking it to IRCHA this year!
Brilliant demo Jeff - well done sir on a marvelous build!
Thank you buddy! I appreciate that!
Outstanding! My kind of 3d and she did with ease. Great flight bro!
thank you! I greatly appreciate it. it flys amazing! it can handle even harder flights!
I like the scale looking flying the best. But it's all great especially since I can't do any of it.
Everybody has their own style and preference, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with the scale flying
That was awesome! It sounds so cool and has huge presence in the air. Nice smooth flying too!
As always you are the man, that thing looks incredible sir!
Thank you! I appreciate that, I try my best!
Cool, nice build.
Thank you! It’s definitely different and was a fun build!
Best beast on your page so far. Absolutely jaw dropping.
Thank you! It was a very fun project and glad to have done it.
I agree, one of the coolest builds.
awesome heli. as always I smashed that like button right at the beginning because I always know its going to be a good video
Thank you! I appreciate that. That helps big-time more than most people know as the more likes and comments that are on a video the more TH-cam pushes the video and gets it out there for others to see.
Looks Insane Jeff well done!!
Thank you! It was a very challenging, but fun project
That is just soooo cool!!
It really is! Such a fun heli!
So awesome!!!
Thank you! I appreciate that
My brain needs to recalibrate to combine those two sounds. Cant get any better than this.
It’s definitely some thing to get used to lol you’re just not wired to hear a turbine and the blades together, especially doing any kind of aerobatics.
wow even more astonishing, well done mate !
This thing amazes me every time I fly it.
I've watched Jim Schuster do 3D with a whiplash turbine. It 100% can be done.
Yea it can! It’s all about smooth collective management!
Awesome machine Jeff!
Thank you! It was a very challenging very long, but fun project
Excellent video perfect view!
Thank you! The cameraman was zoomed a little too far in, but it was his first time filming for me so I will give him some slack lol
Amazing turbine helicopter 🚁 nice flying also, it’s cool 😎 how the head speed and the camera 🎥 frame rate match up to make it sometimes look like the helicopter 🚁 is flying with a little wing and jet propulsion.😂😊
It’s such a fun helicopter! Different and not something you see everyday. The frame rate is always really cool when it matches the blade RPM and it looks like they’re not spinning at all.
My favorite helicopter of yours! This is one is fricken awesome! Thumbs up on the video!
Thank you for that! I am very glad to have the opportunity to build this thing. It was a fun project.
Nice flying, as usual i might say. It sounds like you're running a not so stupidly fast head speed, so i guess there's room for more
Thank you! So this flight was at 1700 the whole time. I have it set to 2100 as well. I just haven’t turned it all the way up yet. Still a good bit left!
Sounds amazing!
It really does!
Very cool Jeff. Looks like a electric heli running on normal mode. Is there enough power to do tic tocks and pitch pumps? Assuming the throttle curve on a turbine is set to 100%? About how long of a flight do you get on a tank?
Thank you! There is enough power to do tick-tock’s Piroflips all of that good stuff. You just have to be very easy on the collective and have a lot of collective management. I am still running a V curve like an electric model. I’m actually going to take some of the V out what time is around 4 1/2 minutes at wide-open throttle.
It awsome, Do you planning on putting a scale body on it?
Awesome helicopter 🚁 🤙
It really is!
Way cool!
Thank you!
That is so cool!
Have you thought about putting a scale body on it like a Bell Ranger?
Thank you! This one is going to stay a 3-D helicopter! That doesn’t mean we won’t build another one and a scale fuse!
I like it
That thing is nuts
It really is!
It's awesome.
It really is! It just flies, so incredibly smooth and solid
Looks great man! I haven't had the nerve to do any 3d with mine yet. Hopefully soon though.
Thank you! Which one do you have?
@@westhobbiesrc8051I have the Whiplash II with Turbine Solutions engine. So far its been great!
@@westhobbiesrc8051 i have the Whiplash II with Turbine Solutions engine. So far it has been great.
The video I've been waiting for. Great flight !
I hope you enjoyed it!
Love it can't wait to get mine off the ground😮 what UAT are you using
Which turbine model do you have? This is a FAC UAT tank that has been cut down from 100 ML to around 35 ML.
Looks like a great sport flying machine
It definitely is but it can be pushed harder. I will push it more and more every flight and also turn the head speed up some more.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 I can't wait to see what you do with it. I think it would be great for f3c too
I definitely see the "Jet Lag" you were eluding to. But the way you personally adjust for it, it looks seamless. Now, I know the answer to this question already but I'm going to ask it anyway, LOL. Since you also love speed flying as much as Sport and 3D, have you wondered what it would be like with a set of speed blades on it, and going all out?
You definitely have a delay in throttle it’s just under three seconds so you have to be extremely easy and smooth on the collective no hard fast inputs to keep a sustained head speed. So I had an idea before building this thing about putting a Turbine in a speed helicopter, but more of a propulsion and not so much a drive. Lol I will definitely try some speed runs with it. I don’t think I’ll need designated speed blades because I doubt it will go over 150 mph, which is when you start to get blade stall. But I’ve got an extra set just in case as of lol.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 I can't wait Jeff! Of course you know I'm subbed and get ALL notifications.
素晴らしいです😍
Thank you! It really is!
Super smooth. That’s about my speed of 3D… I can’t do all the fast maneuvers.
Does a turbine have a governor? I didn’t hear any change in turbine rpm when pulling maneuvers.
I enjoy fast hard 3-D as well as smooth relaxed 3-D. Yes, you still use a governor. Just like a nitro engine. Magnetic pick up sensor and it controls the throttle input percentages.
Fantastico
Thank you!
Whats the weight difference between nitro motor and turbine motor. And shaft hp on turbine and nitro motor?
The turbine is about 1 and half pound heavier and around 5hp. But where the turbine lax is in response. So loading and unloading the head will create a delay in the actual rpm of the engine.
Does the way the gt is geared and throttled make it too much of compromise in performance/ economy (fuel) to be able to run a conventional idle up, and higher head speed? I know gts are only giving the power in the top 10 - 20% of rpm, but it looked like it would have been happier 3ding with a bit more zing in the whisk, as it were!?😊 Awesome build, awesome. 😊
Thank you! It was a fun project and I’m happy that it is done. This flight was done at 1700 RPM. I have all the way up to 2100 RPM. I just haven’t used it yet.
The cameraman needs to use the camera to look at the helicopter instead of using the eyes...
This was his first time filming for me (I was try to get a better video then the GoPro) but he was to far zoomed in.
Next build: real size nitro heli. :D
That would be awesome!!
Wow! How does the rpm react to loading up the disc? You can’t hear any bogging.
I wouldn't think there will be any bogging down the specs are about 5hp for this turbine ,I'm guessing he's using a governor aswell
So it does drop (to be expected). It it’s not that bad. But if you really load the head it will drop and take around 3 seconds to come back so you need to smooth on The pitch.
Man, she flies silky smooth.
It really does! It is probably the most precise helicopter I have flown this far. It’s on rails!
How much speed ? Pls test this🎉🎉🎉🎉
I will definitely do that!
I want a turbine Huey so bad
Interesting. Ist got nothing on electric in terms of torque
love the heli, enjoy following the build but can't stand the camera man during the test flights.
This was this guy first time videoing for me and he was zoomed in to far unfortunately.
first! 😅
ps.:....and yes, turbine helicopters can do 3d! 😁
Notifications on!
3D? defo not in this case. mildly acrobatic i would say. no tick tocks,no insane climb outs etc. it does not have the power to weight. it would fly loverly to scale with the epic sound BUT bum clenching 3D flight no way. use one of your other beasts for real 3D ,use this for mild acrobatics.
One thing I have found with this turbine, especially is it flies and will do everything a 6s 700 will do. It’s like flying a nitro where collective management is everything. Also, in this video that’s only 1700 RPM head speed so still more to go. It will definitely do tick-tock’s, as well as Piroflips put. Of course it will never have the power of an electric 12S plus set up. But it has more than you would think. More than I thought!
