SUPER SCALE RC Pilatus PC-21 TURBOPROP-powered ADVANCED TRAINER (Tomahawk Design | Steve Johnson)
The Pilatus PC-21 is a turboprop-powered advanced trainer with a stepped tandem cockpit. The full size aircraft is manufactured by Pilatus Aircraft of Switzerland. This model kit is manufactured by Tomahawk Design in Germany and was built by Matt Bishop of Bishop Aviation. In the air it looks and sounds no different to the full size aircraft. It is powered by a JetCat turbo-prop engine that is basically a micro jet engine in reverse with it's thrust rotating an impeller that is connected to the prop. The engine and prop are not physically connected. The exhaust gases from the engine flow over the impeller vanes and rotate the prop.
