Hi Marshal, you did send me two EGT senders but can not fix them in the port. So i think i will drill a hole and fit a EGT probe an inch in from the wall of the turbine, just like i did with the JFS engine i had. Some photos of the EGT senders and what i have done so far with the control panel. Cheers, Mark.. Attachments:

Hi Sven, Thanks mate i will shoot some videos of the first start up . BTW i am watching you SR1 turbine build, it's a shame you ceased building the annular combustor design as i was looking forward to see it run. I am still working on my annular combustor design for the T 30 engine, been to busy with this project but will get back onto it very soon. Cheers, Mark..

Hi I know, Im also bit shame about it , but maybe Im gonna re do backplate, when spring arrives, right now its -20 - 30 celsius at night and my poor old oven cant heat workshop enought Havent done any major changes for turbine and swaping the parts back togheter will be easy. I will look foward your T-30 upgrades also Cant wait to be honest Sven
