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

Doc we all have our airtickets for the 2010 nats. I Will be trying to do my best in sportjet and fastjet. My 2nd place last time around was a awesome experience..  I am sure once I get my modeling room back after our renovations are complete a lot of experimenting will be done.

Regards
Robert
