FAQ/Info
(Cont)
I cannot calibrate the maximum thrust accurately to 160,000 rpm with the
automatic function.
Raise the throttle to about 1/4 to 1/2 before initiating the
calibration. (June 2003)
I cannot start from my Tx
Make sure that sequencing of the throttle trim and stick lever
is within 5 seconds. Follow the sequence outlined in this manual. (May 2003)
Which turbine oil should I use?
You can use Shell 500, Exxon 2380, 2197, Mobil II
and other high grade turbine oil. (2002)
How can I mix the fuel to get 5% mixture?
The easiest way is to mix 20 liters of fuel.
Put in one liter of turbine oil and 19 liters of kerosene. This will give you a 5% oil mix.
The J600 will tolerate mixture imperfections between 4-6%. (2002)
What glow plug and voltage setting do I use?
A3 is the cheapest OS glow plug and it
is very good. Glow plug voltage setting via the GDT is default at 180 (1.8V) and should
be sufficient for the A3 plug. However, if you are experiencing difficulty in lighting up, try
to increase the voltage at small increments of 5 up to 230. For stronger (colder) plugs,
the voltage can be as high as 240-260. (2002)
I get some erratic rpm readings during start, what should I do?
We have tested to
ensure that the wiring bundle has no effect on the J600 operation but due in special
cases and installations, some interference in the wiring bundle has been reported. Try
to separate the rpm sensor wiring from the electric starter leads. Separating the radio
receiver battery and ECU battery is also a good idea even though we have not
experienced interference with battery location issues in our jets. (2002)
I fly in a dirty/polluted or dusty environment and have a high risk of FOD, what
can I do?
Installation of a protective screen to protect the turbine from foreign objects is
recommended. Email us for installation tips. (2002)
