Great video Jeff as always when Jeff says he’ll be helpful. He means it. He took some time with me at Joe Nall and looked over my Mb339 for me although I still haven’t flown it yet. I take every word that he says as good advice and put it in my artillery of learning skills. Thanks again, Jeff.
Jeff, I enjoyed meeting you in Birmingham a few weeks ago. You are very helpful for new turbine flyers who have lots of questions. This video provided important information that few people talk about on RUclips. I especially took note of three items you discussed; locktite the retracks, shake out the fuel system and make your first flights at a large grass field. I will follow this advice. Hope to see you again sometime soon.
Thank you for this video, I just might (one day) get into turbine jets and I think this would be the perfect fit for me. I am still learning on foamy jets and their little tricks and faults. So, when I get to the point of turbine jets, I will definitely contact you to find out more. Thanks again!
Hey Jeff, great video series on the 339. I am a new turbine pilot and I started with a Sebart Avanti with K45 which after looking back now I wished I would have started with this plane, actually still might get it when it comes back in stock. You are 110% correct regarding air bubbles and flame-out issues. I have been struggling to get mine to stay running and I believe I finally chased my issue down to a bad UAT, actually not bad but missing UAT filter! It's interesting about mounting the KT filter vertically, I never heard that before. I will definitely be changing my setup.
We need more turbine trainers on the market. Some folks want to be the Tom Cruise of the airfield and play Topgun music while flying the jet on pavement for bragging rights...
Very odd comment on the flame outs. Never had this happen to me flying multiple different turbine jets (new and rebuilds from 3kg till 14kg thrust) for 7 years... nice jet none the less. Enjoy
Would be nice if you would actually get them into stock so we can purchase one. Lots of hype, no planes. Same song and dance from Horizon. Tired of waiting, going with a BVM
Wish i could find someone good at doing hinges on the control surfaces thats the only thing keeping me from ordering one i don't trust my hinge work for something like this.
As someone who flies both big EDFs and turbines, there’s really no comparison. Turbines, besides the cool factor, have about 50% more power and flight time for a given weight.

Great video as iv just got this as my 1st jet
Thank you so much for all the info Jeff, truly appreciate you taking the time to make this video and helping us us out

Outstanding shipmate. Press on. USS Kitty Hawk CV-63 Jan 1980 to July 1983. Rc er for life.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!! This is great information for us guys considering turbine jets.
Thank you very much for your insight to bubbles causing problems in RC jets.
super informational for someone like me considering to get into turbines… thank you!
Awesome video!

Good info Jeff, can never have enough whatever your level!
Really informative ,,thanks for all the advice
Nice job as always, Jeff!!
Really clean build and excellent information genuinely impressed.
thanks glad to help
Thanks Jeff. Would like to see more of the install on the plane.
Type my name in and there is one more on this plane on my channel that deals with the bulid.
Great info Jeff!

Don't fly turbines, but this was 100% perfection.

great info. does the "never run it out of fuel" also mean "never empty the tank completely after ur done for the day?"
Will a 100N turbine be ok? As folks say 85N be the max However I already have a 100N engine, so I would like to use it for the Horizon Hobbies MB-339.
Jeff, do you typically fly with the GSU plugged in and mounted in the plane or do you unplug and pocket the GSU after engine startup?
You can if you have room
Would be nice if you would actually get them into stock so we can purchase one. Lots of hype, no planes. Same song and dance from Horizon. Tired of waiting, going with a BVM

These are real easy to do
One of these days people are going to wake up and realize the advantages to Electric Power!.. .
