AMT Netherlands is proud to announce the ‘Pegasus HP E-start, a completely new ‘High Performance’ version of our original Pegasus turbine, which has been in constant production since 1995.
Now producing an astonishing 16-17* kg thrust, this new motor is a fully redeveloped version of our original Pegasus design. As well as a 25% increase in thrust, it features reduced fuel consumption, much improved throttle-response, faster start-up’s and lower EGT’s.
The redesign includes many new parts, including the main shaft, bearings,turbine wheel, combustion chamber, turbine stator (NGV), and higher specification of fuel pump. The new motor also includes a smart anodised inlet and front cap, and Festo quick-connectors to make installation easier.
Of course, like all the turbines from AMT Netherlands, the new ‘Pegasus HP Estart’ comes complete with a full 2 year Warranty.

Electronic Control Unit
AMT Netherlands developed in house a fully automatic ECU to control the turbine, main reason for this development was that there was a need for fully automatic starting turbines. The latest update was to comply with the latest AMA
requirements, with this software update (V29) we made it also possible to use lithium polymer (LiPo) batteries without changing anything to the settings of the ECU. The lithium polymer batteries are available for all our engine types.
