- In this video we do the finishing touches on the Turbine RAW 700! We get the FBL and radio setup and start the turbine for the first time. I’m happy with how everything turned out and engine runs so next is the maiden flight! I know you guys are waiting and trust me so I am!

All I can say is LETS GO WAITING IMPATIENTLY FOR THE FLIGHT VIDEO TO DROP.
Im waiting to fly it! I hope this Saturday will be the maiden!
The turbine and the blades chopping air sound going to be so good
Yes they are! I can’t wait!
Awesome Jeff . Can’t wait to see it in the Air .
I can’t either! I want to make sure everything is 1000% perfect for the maiden flight.
Awesome Jeff. Great to hear it running..hope for you (and us) for good Maiden weather and a nice video. Thanks for sharing
Thank you! I’m excited to fly this thing. It’s been a long project and I want to make sure everything is perfect for the maiden flight!
Awesome!
Kick the tires and light the fires!😊
Thank you! It’s definitely lighting the fire!
Awesome heli, Your channel just popped up on my feed. Subscribed, I use to fly heli's in the mid to late 90's with mechanical gyros and flybar's lol. Crazy how much this hobby changed.
Thank you for watching and subscribing! I started flying helis in the late 90s with a GMP Cricket. No tail gyro. I remember those days lol times have sure changed!
Amazing Jeff!! Can't wait to see the maiden on this!
Thank you! I can’t wait either!
Oh man i cant wait to see this fly!!!!
I can’t wait either! Super excited
lets gooo🤩 hyped to see it in the air. hope you are doing well. greetings
Thank you! I always appreciate it. I cannot wait to get this thing in the air and fly it!
That thing looks sweet
It’s definitely different! Something cool!
Very interesting project, Jeff 👍 Waiting for fly
Yes it is! I can’t wait to fly it.
woa i love that control, touch screen, handling and menu...🤤💯
And finnaly the full sound and not just a fraction epic 🤩🤤
I just love it mate you did such a great job and its just crazy cool
Thank you! It’s been a fun project and something different. It definitely challenged me which I really liked and enjoy that aspect of building and creating something different. I can’t wait to fly it.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 yeah i love challenges aswell because thats the fun projects ... RC helicopters and turbines are definitely on my bucket list
That sounds so sweet 🎂
It sure does! Sounds even better in person!
Jeff, amazing amount of set-up and build knowledge in this video, and your helicopter 🚁 does sound amazing, the turbine starts off sounding like a old “white gas” ⛽️ Coleman lantern . . . And then the realization of extreme rpm takes over, if the turbine only had exhaust on 1 side, the thrust would tend to spin the helicopter 🚁😮. 🤞🏻🍀
Thank you! I appreciate that. It’s been a challenging but fun project. I have really enjoyed building this Heli. I can’t wait to get it in the air. The RPM is crazy! Idle is 60,000 RPM and goes past 120,00 RPM.
Great!. As easy to start as a real helicopter 😂 Can't wait to see it fly.
You can set your trim up on a switch… that way if you bump the trim you don’t shut off the engine. Also you can go under the “Info” menu on the hub and prime the fuel pump. Let it run for a little bit and then connect the main fuel line to engine.
Great idea on setting the trim to a switch! I did prime the fuel pump that way, but I guess I didn’t let it run long enough I only let it run until I got fuel.
Awesome fire up 👍
Thank you! It sounds amazing!
Awesome
Thank you!
Please stop teasing us and get that wicked thing in the air. LOL
Trust me, I can’t wait to fly it!
Awesome work Jeff, pumped to see this bird fly for the first time!
I remember watching your videos prior to this one where you were explaining what you were going to do to make room for the jet. Very Simple, very well thought out. It looks SUPER CLEAN! I don't know if you get the "Jitters" anymore when flying Heli's, but this might? LOL. Thanks Jeff!
This has been a long and thought out project. I started the build in January, I spent a week just looking at it and thinking how I wanted to do everything. Then waiting on parts to be made to designing and printing parts. Lots of work went into this heli. I don’t get nervous very often, but I’m definitely nervous on this one!
Should put some gold foil heat tape on the inside if the frame and bottom of the plastic close to the exhaust
Dam, sick setup and next level transmitter to
well done...u have a very high work rate...all great material and content
Great save Jeff! Dam, that was some heavy breathing man!!! Could hear your heart pounding. lol!
That's Cool 😎
holyshit, looks good
That's insane! I don't understand how you figure out all the little things you need to do to even turn it on.
Yes please looking forward to that flight,,,🤙🏼🤙🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Sub’s.
Locked and loaded - cant wait to see and hear it. Sophisticated stuff there...
I can’t wait to see it fly and hear it rip by! It’s so loud! Lol
@@westhobbiesrc8051 i would join you to see it live but im too far away from you... (frankfort)
Wow! Very cool! How loud is it? Do you need earplugs?
Very loud! That is the reason I cut the video is because it just blew the mic out and you couldn’t hear anything especially when I got on the throttle that close. It’s probably smart to wear earplugs when you’re standing right next to it.
YOOO VID IS OUT .... ahhh shit that 5 min ad break before it ... be back after xD
5 minute break add!? I had no idea there is a 5 minute add?
@@westhobbiesrc8051 2 ads... which i watched to the end out of respect to a youtuber who definitely needs funding after he build a helicopter 😉😅
hey, why did you set the cyclic servo frequency 144hz?, thanks
I didn’t, I just didn’t get to that part when I film that clip. I set it to 333.
Does it use a hydrostatic transmission to transfer power?
It uses a gear box. There is 90 degrees gear box that’s driver of a turbine blade. Engine spools the second turbine blade which drives the gear box and runs the clutch.
what is the metal line that goes over the muffler??
It is a oiler line that goes to the gearbox.
What fuel and mix do you use?
I run kerosene with 4% king tech oil
Do you have to get a license for this?
Like a turbine waver?
Looks like it’s going to be nose heavy
It’s pretty nose heavy!
The filter between pump and turbine is the wrong position. Filter must be before the pump. Please read the instruction from Gaspar
yes, I know they say to put it before the pump but I’m running an filter clunk as well so it’s got plenty of filter.
