Merlin 90

Highlights:

          -90N of thrust in a small diameter engine (90mm).

        -Low EGT due to high efficient design. Typically below 620ºC

        -Low rotor speed, longer bearing life.

        -Bearing system that allows the use of 2T motorcycle oil.

        -Very low acceleration time. Less than 3sec from idle to full power, less than 1sec from 3 to 20lbs. 

        -Low cost, but not low quality. Almost all parts are manufactured in our premises, including electronics, so we get the parts at cost price. 

    We are owners of the 100% of the design and technology, this is not another MW54 variant, so we don't have to pay fees to third people. All these savings are applied to the final price.

  The compressor is of propietary design milled from solid aluminium using 5axis mill. No more turbocharger parts.
