What's the deal with JETCAT USA?
Do they make a quality product?
How is their customer support?
What are your experiances?

They have a Turbine Helicopter mechanics set that I am interested in. Not too much info in the heli forums, so I thought I'de ask some jet pilots. Hope you guys can are fimilliar with JETCAT USA products.

Sorry, missed this post somehow. I have a jetcat P80, and love it, its my first tubine though so I cant really compare to anything. So far everyone I have talked to have not had a gripe about them as you hear with others. And my local Jetcat rep seems to be awesome also.

Bob Wilcox is a very nice guy and answers emails asap and even on weekends sometimes!

I am impressed so far!

I fly AMT Mercury, also fly helis so I can appreciate your dilemma..
The guy who writes the JETS column for the AMA mag, can answer any ??? you might have, His name is JIM HILLER, he is a long time modeler, he flys JEtcats, he also is on AMA turbine review panel. he is going to review kittype turbines for them as well...Theres not a subject I think he would not have an opinion on..............

Other options would be FTE turbines made and serviced in USA http://www.franktiano.com
Also TJT from Australia make some exceptional turbines. Very good global sales and service support http://www.TJT.bz
Wren turbines in the U.K. are the current leaders for some of the smaller
7-18 lb thrust turbines.
I am personally a rep for FTE and TJT and maybe somewhat biased, that said i have hands on experience with most of the commercially available turbines now available and regardless would personally only own the above mentioned products due to their quality, excellent customer service and engine performance....please feel free to ask any questions here or via email- martin@TJT.bz
