Hi Everybody I have just got a ph call from Andrew Robinson who has absolutely smashed the NZ Jet Record at the NZ Nats.
He did a test flight of 184mph on 20% nitro fuel then tried hot fuel ( 60 nitro 40 prop)
1st flight was 210.63 mph
2nd flight 211.83mph
3rd flight 210.50 mph
This is the first time a 200mph flight has been officially done in NZ and to do it by over 10mph is phenominal .
The plane is his version of lenny's model which I supplied him as a basic kit , the engine is a JB mk2. Lines are 19.9m in length and 0.8mm thick. The valve was one of my waterjet cut ones which lasted all 4 flights.
This is a fantastic result and once I get the video it will be on youtube asap
All the Best
Robert Bolton
