Product description

This massive turbine engine consumes liquid fuel and angular acceleration. We'd say its the most powerful thing you can buy - but it's still not a rocket.

C7 Aerospace Division

Use

This is a turboshaft engine that consumes Liquid fuel and Intake air to output torque. It is stronger than the R121 Turboshaft Engine. However it is more suitable for radial mounting since it is not circular in radial size. It is suitable for making helicopter rotors. It does not produce thrust on its own, but putting propeller blades on it will produce lift. Propeller blades need an angle of attack to produce lift. It is recommended to set the throttle to blade pitch, and set the rotor to a constant RPM.
