Introduced in the year 2000, this High Performance

version of our original design, the smallest in its
class, now has 9 kg (20Lbs) of thrust and has proved
extremely popular with new turbine modellers. On-board
electric starting will soon be available for the Mercury HP.

In production since 1994, the AMT

Netherlands Pegasus produces 13 kg
of thrust and is still the most common
choice for models in the 14 - 22 kg
range. It is well known for its low fuel
consumption, legendary reliability and
high power-to-weight ratio.

Used extensively in the commercial

sector for target and surveillance
drones, and for larger models, the
AMT Netherlands Olympus has an
unequalled world-wide reputation for
long life and high power. The static
thrust of 19kg produced by this turbine,
which weighs only 2.3 kg and has a 130mm
diameter, gives absolutely stunning performance.

AMT Netherlands manufactures a range of three gas turbine motors, all based on a revolutionary design that was developed by
us in 1992. They have a single shaft with an annular combustion chamber, a radial compressor and a unique single stage axial flow
turbine, which was designed by us for our motors. This axial turbine wheel is the main reason for the exceptional thrust-to-weight
ratio, low running temperatures, and the rapid acceleration time of only 4 - 5 seconds from idle to maximum power.
All our turbines run on liquid fuel, such as paraffin, kerosene or Jet A-1, and
need no separate oil reservoir as the hybrid bearings are lubricated by a small
percentage of oil added to the fuel, which has proved to give the maximum
reliability. All our turbines use similar fuel pumps and Electronic Control
Units, both designed by us, and the optional accessories, such as the EDT and
ASU, are also fully cross-compatible. All components used are of the highest
quality, the main parts being cast or CNC machined from the same materials
used in full-size gas turbines. The unique ECU is microprocessor based, with
pre-programmed software, and utilises surface-mount technology for maximum
vibration protection. It offers several innovative features; including assisted start-up
and shut-down programs, data display, retrieval and storage facilities, and a fail-safe system.
The Pegasus motor was first produced commercially by us in 1993, and its legendary reliability and performance quickly became
a benchmark in the micro-turbine industry. Our Olympus and Mercury HP turbines are further developments of the Pegasus
design, and utilise the same proven concepts and engineering principles. The Olympus was released in 1995 for large models and
special applications, and offers a 50% thrust increase over the Pegasus with only slightly larger dimensions. The latest addition to
our range, the Mercury HP(High Performance) is our redevelopment of the original Mercury turbine, now with almost 20% extra
power and much greater fuel efficiency. Its very small size allows simple retro-fitting in many smaller models, or scale twinengine installations. Recent developments have resulted in a further slight weight
reduction, without sacrificing safety or strength, and in 2001 we will release an
on-board electric starter for this motor with our new electronics package.
Many of the worlds most best model jet aircraft manufacturers are now
AMT NLdealers, ensuring an increasing number and variety of well
designed airframes that are suited to our range of turbines.

Marc Leavesley, of Mikes Models

in England (one of our UK dealers), with
his famous AMT NL Pegasus powered BVM Bandit.
One of the best jet show-pilots in the world, Marc also chooses
to fly the best products. Watch out for him and his fabulous new

AMT Netherlands designs, develops and manufactures small gas turbines for the
propulsion of radio-controlled aircraft, surveillance and target drones, remote
power generators, and auxiliary power units. AMT NL is the most established
micro-turbine manufacturing company in the world, having been in constant
production since 1995. Based in Helmond, near Eindhoven, we are a privately
owned Dutch company, and not associated with any other similar companies.
All our turbines and accessories are produced in Holland, and the design and
development is done by our own engineers. Production of the castings and

control is strictly maintained, and every turbine is assembled by our skilled staff
and stringently tested to ensure that it meets specifications and the reliability for which our products are renowned.
We are totally committed to the continual development of the efficiency and safety of the gas turbine motors, accessories and
associated equipment that we supply, and offer a full 2 year warranty on all new turbines for the modelling industry. Prospective
and existing customers are welcome to visit our offices by prior arrangement.

In 2001 we will be releasing a new ECU which has several additional features
including: fully automatic on-board electric starting for all our 3 turbines, and
enhanced telemetry and data download facilities. In addition it will be possible
to control our turbines using a single receiver channel, instead of two channels.
Of course this new ECU will be fully compatible with all our existing and new
turbines, and it is the same size as our existing ECU.

An increasing number of Universities and technical foundations throughout The AMT NLfactory teamattends about 15 major
events every year, world-wide, to support our

This specially developed computer program permits the user to monitor turbine
performance and other data in real-time mode on a computer screen during start-up,
running & shut-down. It requires a minimum 286PC or laptop computer. The data is
output from the ECUs serial port and displayed in graphics form (see right), and
includes: EGT & RPM, position of the throttle & switch channels, ECU status, error
codes, R/C equipment pulse width, pump voltage and nicad voltage. All our ECUs automatically store the last 30 minutes
of engine operation data in their own non-volatile memory chip, which can also be accessed with the Telemetry software,
allowing it to be downloaded into a computer for future reference or fault diagnosis. This Telemetry Software is included
free of charge with all complete motor sets ordered, and we can also supply the serial cable to connect the ECU to your PC.

The Engine Data Terminal is a small low-cost self-contained module with its own
internal nicad. It offers a simple and effective method of monitoring all important
data and functions during ground running, and allows users to ensure that everything is working correctly before flying. The EDT displays the same data as the
Telemetry software in real-time mode, on a 4-row 20 character LCD screen, but has
no data storage. It is either connected to the ECU with a single cable during motor
starting or, if using our ASU, then the EDT can be plugged directly into this unit.

Permits fully automated starting and shutdown of all our turbines,

controlled by a 3-position switch on the transmitter for start, shut-down
& emergency stop options. The ASU is connected to a compressed air
tank, a small propane canister for starting, and a 12 volt battery. To start
the turbine the single service cable, which carries all three supplies, is
connected to the socket in the aircraft and the 3-position switch set to
start. When the motor is running and has self-calibrated, the quickrelease plug is disconnected. After the flight has ended the service cable
is reconnected and the switch is set to shut-down, allowing the ASU to
follow the optimum shutdown procedure and automatically cool the
motor with short bursts of air. No separate glowplug battery is needed as
the ASU contains its own voltage converter.

The Analog Control Box and Analog ECU allow full operation of our Olympus turbine without using a radio-control system,
which is especially useful for ground based installations. It is most commonly used by universities and technical institutions.
This superb NF-5 Tiger of Leons Bimbergen is one of the large scale jet
models built for the Dutch PHantasy in Blue project, sponsored by AMT
Netherlands. Built to a scale of 1:5, the Tiger is 2.87m long, spans
2.05m, and weighs just 17.5kg. Powered by one of our Olympus
motors, the model has stunning performance,
and has recorded over 350 Kmh. A kit of
the F-5 will be available during
2001 from Toni Clark, one of
our German dealers.
