Welcome to the Prop-Jet Page
Prop-Jets are more popular than ever!
Jet looks, great performance, and economical alternatives to turbine
or ducted fan jet models. The Jett SJ-90L, SJ-90LX, SJ-50 and SJ-60LX
are great choices!
(or go BSE - make that engine installation shine!)

Frank from Vernon N.J. SJ-90LX powered Vmar F-4 Phantom ARF "The plane came out at 11 lbs.It has spring air retracts and robart struts. The motor fired up first spin, and after the first tank it was idling perfect.It is spinning an 11-7 at 15,700. I lowered it down to 14,700 for the first flight and wow. The plane flew great,it was a real windy here today and it handled it ok. The take off was good as was the landing." click here for the RCUniverse thread Aircraft ARF available from Richmondrc.com

Jerry McGhee Williamsburg, VA SJ-90L powered Vmar MIG-21 ARF "I received the Jett .90 you sent me and I've finally got it in my airplane, the Vmar MiG 21. The plane weighs 10.5 pounds and it has unlimited vertical with the Jett .90. The engine started right up and wanted to get to work. I've added Robart mechanical retracts to the plane and it's pretty freakin fast. Not as fast as my pylon racer but fast enough to get guys at the field to land whenever the mighty MiG takes off! No problems with the Jett .90! It rocks! Thanks for a great engine!" Aircraft ARF available from Richmondrc.com Look for an upcoming write up and review of this project on RCUniverse.com

Greg Minden Las Vegas, NV SJ-90L powered Cermark F-16 ARF "I really love the way the F-16 flys - like it's on a rail. It's quite fast with the Jett 90L yet lands nice and slow , especially with about 20% flaperons. I use spoilerons after landing as brakes. The Cermark HD gear and super wheels work perfectly too."

Alan Baskin Colorado Springs, CO Jett BSE-90L powered Great Planes F-14 Tomcat Outstanding aircraft! "The engine I ordered was the 90 signature BSE put in a Great Planes F-14 Tomcat. My first trip to our flying field here in Colorado Springs proved to be an absolute success. I had plenty of complements and questions even before I had the chance to get it off the ground. Everyone was impressed with not only the plane but the engine. By the time I was ready for my first flight I'd drawn quite a croud. But the moment of truth was an exciting experience. I took off without incidence and it flew beautifully. The power was excellent especially for the altitude here in Colorado and the added weight of the flaps, retracts, and sequencing doors. The flight was a sight of beauty. The speed was certainly what I was looking for and the engine hadn't even been leaned out yet. To end a happy first flight was a perfect flared main wheel touchdown on centerline. Beautiful!"

Russell Purkey - - - Sport-Jett 50 powered Great Planes F-15 "The plane flies very well on this engine, even though it's a rock. The gentleman who built this kit glassed the fuselage and empennage, and thats a lot of glass. Then it got a PPG paintjob, thin, but still not monocote weight... I don't have a radar readout on this bird, but the common agreement at the field is in excess of 100MPH. I have tried to fly this plane with other engines. They can't even get it airborne on our grass field"

Rodney Smedt - - - Sport-Jett 90L powered Patriot XL "It is pretty fast - it keeps me paying attention" Real nice Job Rodney. Nice color scheme.

Andrew from Bergen County, NJ OS91FX powered GP F-14 with added Jett-Stream tuned muffler This is an excellent example of adding performance to an already good engine using the Jett-Stream performance muffler. "I actually purchased this F14 from last year's WRAM show. I changed the old engine for an OS .91FX engine and purchased your Jett muffler. I actually saw an increase of 900 rpm. I use a 11x10 prop . This plane was clocked at 118mph over the summer. I love your muffler." Now thats what we like to hear!

Norm Holland Maitland, FL Scratch Built ME-262 TURBO-JETT mufflers on two OS91's Norm was kind enough to provide us with this photo of his OUTSTANDING ME-262 "..the engines are really humming, running between 11.5 and 11.8k with a good idle and broad needle. The prototype of this aircraft flew very well on two OS 91's, with your mufflers. The OS's turned a master airscrew 13/8 cut to 12/8 three blade at 11,500 rpm. I broke them in on a 82 in. ME-163 and they turned a solid 11,500 RPM" The ME-262 aircraft is 103 in.wing span and weighs 27 lbs

Bob Holmes Charleston, IL SJ-90L Powered Patriot Bob sent us some great shots of his Great Planes Patriot.

Static on the ground is 16,100 rpm.

Joe Lewis Niles, Ohio Jet Hanger Hobbies F-86 Saber The FAN JETT 50 drives a Turbax 1 turning an honest 23,000 RPM using A Macs 8.5 pipe, MC 9 glow plug and 10 % Wild Cat fan fuel. The plane has about 40 flights on it and 25 of those are with the FJ50. Joe reports he is on only his second glow plug with about 12 flights and it is still working well. "I would recommend the FAN JETT .50 to any one building a .45 size ducted fan jet".
