    @Shmexysmpilot oh yea these engines can't be mounted on the back of fuel tanks. they have to be mounted as you see here like the low end turbo fan.

    @Shmexysmpilot they don't have THAT much less power. all my creations still fly with race speed. they just don't fly at like 1600mph like the minimalist MK:2 does.

    @Typhlosion130 ok thanks, just wondering. And let's hope that older creations still fly with the engines having less power

    @Shmexysmpilot about 10k more than the old most powerfull engine. that said. all engines seem a whole lot less powerfull than they used to so this thing on this build goes just a bit slower than my normal racing planes.

    How many pounds of thrust do these engines make?
