Turbine Chopper

[BubbaJoeLouis]

I recently got my turbine powered heli in the mail and just finished building it. $12,876 and 85 man-hours later, my crew and I took it out for a test run. I took it up to 3250 ft using my virtual cockpit by way of stereoscopic LCD goggles. It then cruised at 92 MPH and touched down softly 32 minutes later. A perfect flight.


I wish.

Hey, somebody had to break this forum in!

Oh, Man! That's just cruel.

Took my turbine out today and can't seem to get near the 92 mph mark maybe I need a rocket boosster or two.
All kidding aside I am not sure what the top speed is of the Bergen turbine, I know when I built the first prototype I noticed quickly that it was alot faster than it needed to be.
There is nothing like flying the turbines, they will without doubt hold your attention
