Dan693 510 #5 Posted November 10, 2018 The bike is a pulse jet.......first used on V-1's in the big war. They sold them as model rockets in the 50's and 60's till they were banned for being too loud and dangerous. The exhaust literally gets red hot. A little too close to the leg for me. Personal helicopter..........more like a personal decapitator lol. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 17,500 #11 Posted November 13, 2018 (edited) I have a pile of gt14 parts, a Magnum 12 engine, a Sunstrand C-175 transaxle and a bunch of leftovers. I have a plan for them but no time. But this is what I want to make after I get moved, unless I can find one. The search begins..... Edited November 13, 2018 by 19richie66 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have a spare jet engine laying around? Wait. Never mind. Don't answer that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Things like that are never “spare” or “enough”. No matter how many you have you always need one more.

Haven’t found a lot of info on them. What I have found though looks neat and very useful. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
