cheap jet attempt 2 "the revenge of the runner"

Sounds much better than the other , congratulations on getting it going

thank you all for the nice comments

next step is making a bicycle mount

update
it still runs

I haven't kept up with this but I'm impressed. Anybody that can imagine and construct a small real jet engine has my respect.

Robot,
How about a 1/8th scale hydro boat? At least it would be near water in case something negatively significant happens

Hi Peter, could this jet assist the Wankel engine in your Fiat 600 to obtain higher speeds?

I can see it now --------
The Batmobile #2

Turbine for speed --- power to stern ----- flames shooting out the back of the car and the roaring of the turbine engine!

And out of the Bat Cave pops out the little Batmobile #2 goes!

Anyone remembers the words that Batman and Robin say as they start-up the Batmobile may remember it?

As a young boy I thought that was the coolest thing to see --- Batman and Robin jetting out of the Bat Cave!
I still have an old Revel plastic kit (built) of the Batmobile with Batman and Robin.

I never saw that batman
sound a bit to corny for me

It is from the Batman TV series that was shown in the 60's.

robot797 --- your way too young to ever have seen the TV series, but you can watch them on YouTube?

I didn't quote get the wording correct but here is the clip from the show of Batman and Robin in the Batmobile.

For a pre-teen, the bat cave was amazing!
It had a nuclear power plant, computers, a bat-cycle, bat-helicopter, bat-boat, a bat-mobile that was driven by a jet engine.
Things you would have never seen in the 60's like you would see almost every day today.

Especially a jet car or a big semi rig with a jet engine going down a drag strip?

I have a fair collection of Batman items that I still have over 60 years ago.
The one I remember well and flew it a lot is my Bat-kite.
It's the old-style diamond shape kite with the tail and printed on the clear plastic of the kite is the design of the "Bat-signal."
I was the envy of the kids in the neighborhood with my kite.

yea that sounds like the dream of every teen
but I did not grow up with it so now its just cheesy
(just like the original startrek)

I was 12 going 13 years old when I saw Batman with Adam West and his side kick Robin (can't remember actor's name). Even then at my younger age it was corny. It was weird watching them both scaling up a wall that you knew was a prop laying horizontally with camera flipped 90 degrees. They were fake walking.

Yup, past history but they sold a lot is toys, figurines, dolls, kites, gliders, costumes, masks, remained popular for a long time. They got little girls involved with Batwoman (short lived).

It was just another part of history.

Startrek may be a touch cheesy, but it was fun to watch. William Shatner added a touch of class along with the other regulars, Spock, Ursula, Bones, Scotty.

Watching the USS Enterprise scale model zipping past the screen preceding CGI using the filming techniques of the day was fun to watch.

Again, it was a fun part of history.

Check this out!!.  Cheezy it may be, but what an amazing machine.. Mind you, I doubt that the climate change people will approve.  All that gas and fog and smoke etc.
