1. Directions for safe operation
1.1. General safety instructions
Even though jet engines are different from piston engines, it is easy to
safely operate and fly them when you follow some basic safety rules.
With this goal, the Gas Turbine Builders Association GTBA has created a
Code of Practice, which can be found as an attachment to this manual. It
is available in multiple languages and can be found on the GTBA website
(www.gtba.co.uk/codes/german.htm).
It is mandatory to read this Code of Practice before mounting the jet
engine and follow the recommendations when mounting and operating
the engine.
The operation of any jet engine can be dangerous. This also holds true
for the JB130-JB220. During operation, the jet wash and parts of the jet
nozzle become very hot; the nozzle can reach up to 700 °C. In addition,
the turbine fans do reach very high rotary speeds, which leads to
extreme tensile loads and temperatures. Therefore, it cannot be
excluded that parts of failing turbine fan wheels and broken fans will
strike through the housing which can lead to damage and even injury or
death.
Study the operation mode and the dangers of operation before using a
jet engine. In case you have no experience with the operation of gas
turbines and jet engines, instruction by an experienced person,
especially before initial operation, is mandatory. Errors in mounting and
operation of a jet engine can lead to damage, injury, or death.
Follow national laws concerning aircraft, the operation of jet engines, and
the handling of combustible liquids and gases. You are exclusively
responsible to have sufficient insurance when operating aircraft. You are
also responsible to protect other persons from injury and danger.
Operating personnel and their assistants must be in best physical and
mental condition and pay full attention to the operation.
This engine must only be used for unmanned operation in R/C aircraft.
The instructions in this manual must be exactly followed.

1.2. Warning
Consider the basic differences between gas turbines and piston engines.
Turbines will deliver power only at high rotation speeds. Then there will
be a lot of power (see diagram).
Higher loads occur when driving an R/C aircraft model with a turbine
compared to equally powerful drives like propellers or impellers.
This is a result of considerably higher air speeds caused by jet
propulsion.
Maximum speeds under jet propulsion can exceed 400 km/h, depending
on the model.
The resulting loads effect the whole structure, not only the rudders or the
installation of the servo wires.
Models have to be constructed with jet aircraft specific stability. Please
ask manufacturers about the current level of production standards for the
models in question. Meanwhile, a large array of models built for jet
propulsion is available by different manufacturers. Servos should be at
least 1.5 times as strong as for comparable models with conventional
engines.
During installation, seal the intake and nozzle, as well as propane and
kerosene joints to keep dust and debris out of the engine.
Really make sure to:
• first inform, then buy
•
have the fitting size model for your turbine
•
select servos that are powerful enough
•
construct servo wiring and rudder joints very carefully and
reinforced
•
seal the turbine during the installation process
5
1.3. Before starting the engine
•
Tank system, pump, shut-off kerosene valves and turbine
must be checked for correct alignments.
•
Loose parts in the intake area must be fixed in a way they
can never be sucked in. Loose parts or dirt can damage or
destroy the turbine. We recommend the use of a protection
screen.
•
Have a fire extinguisher (CO2) within reach!
•
The kerosene system must not be leaking.
•
Use only kerosene or Diesel with a 5% fraction of lubrication
(fully syntethic 2-stroke mix oil or turbine oil).
•
Take off must be against the wind.
•
Hold the turbine with the nozzle facing downwards right
before take off so excess fuel can run off to avoid a hot start
of the engine.
1.4. During operation
• Always keep in front of the turbine (intake facing), never to
the side or in the exhaust area of the turbine.
•
Also make sure that no other persons or animals are present
in the mentioned dangerous areas.
•
Keep your hands and every kind of object out of the area
within 20 cm of the compressor (intake). The enormous
suction can grasp everything within reach lead as quickly as
a flash and lead to severe injury or damage.
•
Never look into the jet exhaust. Severe burns can be the
result.
6
1.5. After shutting off the engine
• Place model with the nose facing the wind. Wait until the
cooling down process is completed.
•
Be aware of the cooling process after engine shut down.
During this process, the electric power supply of the receiver
and the ECU must not be turned off. The cooling down
process takes 1 – 2 minutes, depending on outside air
temperatures.
•
Do not touch the turbine during the cool-down because the
danger of burning still exists.
•
All tube connections must be inspected for leakage. The fuel
tanks must be emptied in case of extreme outside
temperatures or when there is no early operation planned
(danger of explosion!).
7
2. Installation of the turbine
2.1. Attachment Options
•
The attachment points of the bracket to the frame must be
parallel (check before attachment). Otherwise bad tensions
can lead to damage of the engine.
•
Attach the turbine only with the provided bracket, screws und
bushings (see picture).
•
The turbine must be attached with the front, near the screws.
•
Attach the turbine with the hole of the glow plug centered in
the slot to avoid a forward shifting of the turbine (see picture).
•
The temperature probe must be put into place outside the
bracket (see picture).
•
The glow plug dummy has to be facing upwards, at twelve
o’clock when seen from the turbine front end (see picture).
•
Should you have deviating wishes concerning turbine
installation, contact the manufacturer.
2.2. Engine mounting rules
•
The engine must be installed in a way that the glow plug
dummy is in the 12 o’clock position. This is absolutely vital for
a kerosene start of the JB Engines. Else, the start, i.e. the
ignition, would fail and might even lead to engine damage.
•
There must not be any combustible objects near the turbine.
The turbine must not be touched by combustible objects.
•
The nozzle and the whole area within reach of the jet exhaust
must be clear of any objects.
8
•
In case of a housed in installment of engine the rear end of
the installation area and any parts which affected by the jet
exhaust should be protected with non-combustible materials
(danger of fire!). When an extension of the nozzle is
necessary, it must be constructed and installed to the
manufacturer’s specifications (overheating!).
•
The turbine must be installed in a way that it can be cooled
by a bypassing air stream.
•
Combustible liquids and gases as well as tanks and tubes
must be kept or installed in safe distance of the engine.
•
The intake area (impeller / compressor) must be kept clear.
Any wires, tubes, etc. must be installed and fixed in a way
they cannot be sucked into the turbine. In general, there
should not be any objects or installations close to the front
end of the turbine.
•
The intake section of the model should have at least twice the
area of the impeller/compressor wheel.
•
You must make sure that no objects, e.g. rocks, dirt, screws,
etc., can be sucked into the turbine. It is a good idea to
protect the turbine intake with a close meshed screen
(accessories).
•
The intake area must be absolutely kept clear.
2.3. Assembly of the complete system
•
Please look at the installation scheme on page 22-23
•
The optimum size of the fuel tank depends on the model but
should be at least 1.5 liters. The optimum size for the JB
Turbines is 3 - 5 liters, which is enough for an average air
time of 6 – 8 minutes, depending on your style of flying. For
further information please see technical data, fuel
9
consumption (p. 16). There must be a felt pendulum in the
tank. Use only the included felt pendulum.
The tank set up can be realized with a so called Hopper tank
(please see installation scheme “engine fuel supply”. The felt
pendulum must only be installed in the Hopper tank; there
must be free passage from the other tanks of 3 mm
(minimum).
Use yellow, highly flexible Tygon tube and attach it to the
pump with a cable connector. Tank accessories, pendula, etc.
can be found in the Behotec line up
•
The Type P7-2 fuel pump must be installed directly after the
tank. Be careful to install the pump correctly (brass fitting =
draw side). The electric wiring of the pump hast o be done
with the correct polarity (+ / -). If the pump is not wired
correctly, it will not work right and will transport no fuel
•
Install the fine filter in the pressure tube after the Behotec
fuel pump (out). After that, a Festo Y quick connector should
follow; red and blue tube with 4mm diameter should be used
there. There the kerosene supply is divided; the connection to
the fuel valves is next. The flow direction is very important, it
is marked with an arrow.
The electric connection is done at the ECU at the “KEROVALVE” input. The fuel supply is connected to the turbine
through the Fuel connection (picture on pages 22 – 23).
The electric connection to the kerosene burner is done at
the ECU at the input “PROP-VALVE”. The fuel supply is
connected to the turbine via the Burner input (picture on
pages 22 – 23).
•
All FESTO quick connectors (blue head) are self-locking.
They are connected and disconnected like this: Insert
tube strongly. There is no resistance for the first 6mm but for
the next 6mm (approximately) resistance can be felt. Only
then the tube is perfectly locked in. For release, push the blue
10
cap in the direction of the metal piece and remove the tube
by pulling.
•
Now the turbine should be electrically wired to the ECU:
Connect the turbine via high voltage wire to the ECU at the
Glow / Starter output. Also connect the black data cable to
the turbine and the Sensors input of the ECU.
•
Then connect the I/O Interface with the ECU at the
“Terminal“ connection. Later the EDT (operation terminal)
can be connected to the I/O Interface. The I/O Interface
serves as control interface; it features acoustic and optic
control. The control interface needs not necessarily be
installed in the model.
•
Power supply:
Rechargable batteries of at least 2500mAh - 4000mAh and
with 3 cells must be used. For kerosene starts, we
recommend a Lipo 3S and a maximum of 12 volts. Connect
the battery to the “BATTERY” input of the ECU. Disconnect
the battery from the ECU when not in use to prevent
discharge. Mind the right polarity at the high voltage plug!
Longish battery wires should be twisted!
•
At last, connect the receiver to your ECU. Now the cable is
readily prepared. Only use original adaptor cables if other
receiver plugs are necessary. The ECU is only operated by
one input channel (engine power limiter).
11
3. Beginning of Turbine Operation
3.1. Initial Operation
•
Fill the fuel tank with kerosene. Ensure a 5% fraction of oil.
•
Make sure the tank breather is open!
•
Filter your fuel already when filling up through the preceding
fine filter.
•
Make sure the electric power supply battery and the receiver
battery are charged.
•
Test the reach of your remote control with and without the
ECU turned on.
•
Place the model always with the nose against the wind so the
direction of the jet exhaust equals the wind direction.
•
Turn on the sender and the receiver unit.
•
The Pro-Jet ECU is mostly pre-adjusted and tuned to your
turbine. Nevertheless, you have to adjust the ECU to the
remote control unit.
To do this, follow the ProJet instructions on page 16, activate
manual point 2.1 accordingly, Trimmung und Gas hinten –
Enter, trim forward – Enter, Throttle forward – Enter. Sender
is now adjusted.
Make sure that no sender functions like Dual Rate, Expo,
distance limit, etc. are programmed!
•
It is necessary to de-aerate the fuel tube before the first
operation in a new model. That means the fuel tube must be
filled with kerosene. Do this manually (throttle back, trim
back). This must be done carefully to prevent the turbine from
being flooded with kerosene. So let kerosene flow until it can
be seen that it has reached the turbine. Never pump
kerosene into the turbine. Press the button on the I/O platine
circuit board.
12
•
This measure must be taken before the virgin operation as
well as after emptying the tank through engine operation.
•
Should the turbine have been flooded, place the model with
the nozzle facing downwards to allow excess kerosene to
leave the turbine. Thus you avoid a hot start, which can
damage the turbine.
13
3.2. First Test Run of Your Turbine
•
Be sure to have a fire extinguisher (CO2) within reach.
•
The ECU does an automatic calibration routine to adjust to all
turbine and weather parameters as well as tube lengths. The
Hornet III, unlike the Hornet II, does this routine at every start.
•
After the factory adjustment of the temperature probe and the
pump’s starting voltage, you can start the turbine. Throttle
forward - trim forward – turbine standby. Set throttle to a
minimum and within three seconds to full. Now the starting
procedure happens. See Pro Jet instructions (pages 24 – 27).
Attention: there the turbine adjusts to the factory set rotation
speed of ca. 60.000 rpm. Hold or adjust your model for this
procedure. The procedure can be interrupted any time with
emergency stop by setting trim and throttle in the back
position.
•
After that, the turbine can be controlled with the throttle.
•
All parameters necessary for operation are now controlled.
Failure of the turbine or the system are now excluded.
•
Conduct a test run of your turbine, preferrably by testing the
range of your model.
•
Shut off the turbine at a medium rotation speed. This is done
by setting the trim back all the way and then setting the
throttle back from a middle setting. An engine shut-off at a
medium rotation speed benefits a gentle cool down of the
spindle ball bearings and the whole system.
•
Put the model against the wind and wait until the after cooling
process is over (around 2 minutes). After that you can turn off
the receiver unit.
•
Check the model’s fuel supply connections and de-fuel, if
necessary.
14
3.3. Control Functions
• In case of error, check the ProJet manual. From p. 15 on you
will find concise error descriptions and explanations.
•
Sender signal: Shut off happens if the sender signal fails.
Attention! With PCM receivers, the fail safe function should
be programmed to idle in order to avoid emergency stops at
short receiving errors. This, however, is within the decision
range of the pilot.
3.4. Tuning Options / Electronics
• We do not want to elaborate on the electronic control
because it is explained in detail in the Pro Jet manual. You
should study the latter carefully.
•
Avoid a system reset!!!
As a result, the ECU may have to be updated at the Behotec
factory.
•
The ECU features a CODE controlled menu system. Every
number features an individual menu point. From these menu
points you have options of changing different pre-set
parameters. This should, if at all, be done very carefully
because the factory setting of the parameters is optimal
already.
•
The following parameters are to be controlled, i.e. changed,
also after a system reset (see attached sheet).

5. Maintenance Instructions
5.1. Correct Maintenance of Your Turbine
Behotec turbines need only little maintenance under normal operation
conditions. However, some points must be considered to guarantee a
faultless function of the engine. This includes regular cleaning and
inspection.
•
Dirt and grease deposit can cause slippage of the starter unit
clutch. If this happens, clean the tappet rubber und the
impeller nut with a grease-dissolving agent like acetone or
liquid gas.
•
The felt pendulum built into the tank should be cleaned or
changed after 10 hours of operation.
•
The upstream fine filter between pump and turbine should be
cleaned every 5 hours of operation.
Do this very carefully and make sure no particles will
enter the fuel supply tube. Destruction of the turbine
could be the result!
Make sure the o-ring is in the correct position when screwing
the filter together. Check for leak tightness!
•
Cover the intake and nozzle areas when the turbine is not in
use.
•
Keep the turbine in a dry and dust-free place when it is not
used for a longer time. We recommend a dehumidifier to
prevent corrosion.
•
Check battery condition regularly.
•
Your turbine’s maintenance interval is at 40 – 50 hours
(about 300 flights). After this time as well as after a
special event (crash, etc.) the turbine should be returned
to the factory.
17
5.2. Repair Work
Repair and maintenance work which include the disassembly of the
turbine must only be performed by professional personnel.
Address your Behotec dealer with all service questions.
Returning of warranty cases can only carried out by your professional
dealer. Only use original Behotec replacement parts.
When ordering replacement parts, engine type and serial number of the
turbine must be specified. Maintenance and repair work performed by
non authorized personnel will lead to expiration of the warranty.
Warranty
The warranty includes free repair and replacement of parts with
manufacturing or material faults 24 months from the date of purchase.
Further liability is excluded. Any costs caused by transport and
packaging have to be paid by the customer. There is no liability of the
Behotec company concerning transport damage. Before sending, please
contact Behotec GmbH.
An explanation of the error or damage has to be included as well as a
valid receipt of purchase with the date of purchase.
Any kind of warranty will expire in case of unauthorized opening,
disassembly or removal of the housing locking device.
When returning the turbine to the factory, the ECU must be included so
we can check the operation hours and other operation parameters.
When a defective turbine which does not feature any faults in terms of
the warranty, examination and repair will be invoiced (also see terms and
conditions in your invoice)

8. Pictures
When the turbine is not used or returned to the factory, the kerosene and
propane joints must always be sealed. Please use included plugs.
Miniscule particles can clog kerosene tubes and fault free operation of
the turbine cannot be guaranteed.
Repair costs of up to 360 Euros can be the result.
Tank size must be determined by the user. See technical data, fuel
consumption. Usually 3 – 5 liter tanks are used with JB turbines. Drill a
6mm hole in the fuel tank cap of your choice.
24
Use the included tank pendulum device and screw it together with the
tank cap. Check for tightness. Cut a piece of Tygon tube with a length of
ca. 120 – 150 mm. This is the ideal length for the typically used 1.5 liter
and 2.0 liter Coca Cola bottles. The length of the tank pendulum,
however, depends on the type of tank used. We recommend to choose
the length the way that the felt pendulum lies at around 75% of the tank
length.
Now place a 6 mm flat washer on the felt pendulum and connect it with
the Tygon tube. This will prevent slippage of the felt body.
25
Then secure the Tygon tube connections with wire. Again, check for leak
tightness.
Braze the battery cable to your chosen battery. Red = plus, black =
minus. We recommend batteries with a capacity of at least 3000mAh
and 12 V maximum have proven to be ideal for turbines of type JB180
Gold Edition. Energy consumption is roughly at 450 – 550 mAh,
dependent on your style of flying, for 8 minutes plus after flight cool down
period. The use of 3S Lipos has proven of great benefit. These should
feature max. 10 – 30C de-charging current max. 12 V. Lipos with a
higher de-charging rate can destroy the ECU due to the higher current
situation.
26
When using a nozzle extension with your model, the diameter of the
extension pipe and the distance from nozzle to nozzle extension must be
correct. With JB130 - JB180 turbines the entry diameter of the extension
pipe should be around 85mm while the end diameter should measure
around 80mm. With JB190 - JB220 turbines the entry diameter of the
extension pipe should be around 100mm while the end diameter should
measure around 95mm. The shorter the nozzle extension the smaller the
loss of power.
When using Behotec nozzle extension pipes for JB type turbines, the
distance from the end of the aluminum turbine housing to the aluminum
hopper should be 3 – 4 cm. The extension pipe must be securely
attached to the model.

MAX. RMP
Setting the max. rmp of the engine
IDLE RMP
Setting the idle rmp
FLOWDYNAMIC
Setting of acceleration and delay – FAST – MIDDLE - SLOW, it depends on the weather how to adjust the
acceleration and delay ramps.
Fast response characteristic results in overheating or exhausting engine.
STARTING PUMPVOL TAGE
Min necessary voltage to start pump. If pump voltage is too high it could result in a flame formation
during starting engine, is the value entered to short fuel could not be ignited.
PUMPVOLTAGE IDLE RPM
After ignition engine pump voltage will be ramped-up to reach idle rpm. The ECU teaches in the idle rmp
autonomous. For inquiring start ramp must entered only an estimated value.
MAX. PUMPVOL TAGE
Not to confuse with pump voltage at max. rpm. The entered voltage is for detection some errors at pump.
Is this value exceeded, engine will immediately be stopped ! The voltage should be entered a little higher
than the voltage at max. rmp. Pleas note: If voltage is too less, engine will not reach max. rpm !
PROPANE-VALVE PULSE
Quantity of propane to start engine depends on ambient temperature and propane pressure .
If fuel ignition is used, valve will be smooth pulsed.

FUEL-VALVE PULSE
After successful ignition, the fuel supply will regulated with the entered value. Engine will exhaust with
less values.
GAS-EXPO
Setting of throttle stick – RPM-Curve. 0% = Linear (no EXPO) 100% = max. EXPO.
1.10 TEST GLOWPLUG
Glow plug test can be switched on or off during starting phase.
1.11 COOL DOWN TEMPERATURE
Engine will be cooled down to the entered temperature.
2-ADJUSTMENT
2.1
TEACH IN TRANSMITTER
The ECU has to learn the used transmitter. Listen to the following instructions:
1.
THRO. LO/TRIM LO (THROTTLE/TRIM MINIMUM) Throttle-Stick and trim to minimum ->
2.
THRO. LO/TRIM HI (THROTTLE MINIMUM/TRIMMING MAXIMUM) leave throttle-Stick at minimum,
Trimming to maximum ->
3.
THRO. HI/TRIM HI (THROTTLE MAXIMUM/TRIMMING MAXIMUM) push Throttle-Stick to maximum,
leave trimming at Maximum ->
Ready.
If AUX-Channel is active (plugged in), the aux channel positions must be tea ched.
The plausibility will check up after adjustments. If an error message with a sound signal appears,
solve the problem and carry out the procedure again. The reason is mostly a wrong programming of
the transmitter.

After successful start-sequence and calibration the gas throttle controls the thrust of the engine.
SHUT-OFF
Engine is switched off to minimum by pushing back trimming (throttle idle).
RADIO CONTROL WITH DIGITAL TRIMING
To react very fast with digital trimming it is recommended to mix a switcher on the throttle channel or to use a
motor cut off switch. The switch replaces trimming, in this case trimming is without function and has to be left
on the maximum position.
FAIL SAFE
The incoming throttle channel pulses are permanent checked, if they are in valid limits. Upper and lower limits
will fixed in by teaching in the throttle channel. If a pulse is above or below this limits the fail safe function is
working.
