As I seem to
have taken on too many projects and my girlfriend is
complaining about all the money i'm spending, I have
made the decision to go for a basic and cheep fuel
tank in the from of a 2 gallon jerry can. This fits nicely
in to the camera compartment of the drone. A fuel feed
and return system have been utilised using 1/4 bsp hydraulic
fittings. |
Today I had the first test run of
the engine. It didn't go smoothly at first due to the
fact I hadn't bled the fuel system properly and
the initial air starting pressure was low.

A sign that someone
with a jet engine lives at this house. All jet enthusiasts
get this, usually along with a ear full from the better half. |
