turbine-powered chopper

[Speedy too Fast]

I saw a chopper with a real jet engine in the April issue of radio control car action. I bet it sounds cool when starting up.

They are :toocool:, They had one at our fun fly, that thing was amazing, the engine alone is around $4000.00. :D

[Speedy too Fast]

you said $4,000 right. <four-thousand>?

[finny]

Wow! That is a lot of money to spend on just the engine. I could imagine how cool they are tough.

[lescar]

Yes that is correct, :eek: these are true miniature jet engines.
