for further assistance.
The
JetCat
jet engine closely functions like a full-size jet engine. A centrifugal compressor compresses the incoming air
which is mixed in the combustion chamber with fuel (jet fuel / kerosene) and ignited. The result is a rapidly expanding
volume of gas that drives an axial engine wheel. The gas exiting the exhaust cone produces the required thrust for the
jet model. To start the engine, an electric motor is mounted on the front of the engine.
