Ok here is some footage Airtime did today.
It is how you shift the turbine from forward neutral reverse.
I just press the micro switch as I pull the shift lever.
I think its pretty cool how it works.
The propeller actualy stops dead.
you can see the cv grease from the exploding boot.
I would not want to try this at speed.
Stay tuned for some High Speed runs!![Cool Smiley 026](/forums/images/smilies/cool-smiley-026.gif)
