Just make a copy from a previous thread~

For my 1st turbine, Jetcopter (Jetcat PHT-3)~ it weighs >9kgs, it used to swing 810mm main blades. We made some modifications then successfully installed Align 700 rotor head system. I fly 850mm main blades now. "Airstar international Jetcopter does not have autoration system".

For my 2nd one, from Align 700 (Wren 44 that has the same hp/output as that of PHT-3) became 800~ its weight is 6.5kgs. It swings 810mm.

For my 3rd one, I decided to buy Wren 44 again due to Jetcat SPT-H5 engine shortage, the 810mm blades. MD-8 is even lighter than Align 800, only 6.3kgs,

Do you want different options, or JUST info on Airstar? If the latter, just call them.

If the former, you know of Airstar. There's also Bergen and any number of turbine conversions for everything from the Trex 700 to the Whiplash etc, etc...

I am looking to purchase a turbine helicopter money is not really an issue just looking for the best Helicopter available anybody out there have any ideas or opinions
Also trying to figure out between kerosene start or a propane start turbine
Have heard good and bad about both

"Best" is always subjective and as such, can't be defined.

You'll have to look at all of them and make your own decision.

Same with starting procedures.. You'll find pros and cons with both types of systems...
