World's Smallest Turbofan HF260

The AIM of Jetbeetle  is to design and build affordable jet engines that move very fast, very safe and very reliable you could really depend on !

Hello!   Welcome to Jetbeetle's official website ! My name is Horace, T.L.Ho, a jet engine designer with many years of experience.  This website is designed as a platform  for sharing information and the general interest into turbine engine, topics including turbojet, turbofan, turboprop, and turboshaft. This website also documents the development of my engine projects. Thanks for visiting and spending some time.

We hope that through this website we could provide different aspects into turbojet engine, including activities of detail design, production, system integration, assembling, testing and tuning, maintenance etc.

Through these years of hard works here is a list of what we have done  :

  • a series of small jet engines, they are H250 / H150 / H90 / H70, (check the products page for more details),
  •  some software tools such as CRS (critical rotational speed calculator) and Turbosmith (turbine engine cycle analysis) to aid the design of jet engines, (check download page),
  • We even developed our own double plane dynamic balancer ARX ! (check the products page for more details), revision comes to V2 2020.
  • A most advanced ECU (engine control unit) in its class, 
  • Small turbofan engines are on their way to reality very soon,
  • World renowned military aerial target Banshee NG, originally powered by twin 40kg turbojets now the Banshee NG is powered by a single Jetbeetle H150 with great success.
  • and we still have a lot of things to do !

We have been categorized by the MOEA (Ministry of Economics Affairs) of our government in UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) sector, check this out : UAS in Taiwan. The upcoming year will be very exciting, with all the new engines and posibilites.

The following is a collection of articles of the engine development activities. We chose to let the pictures speak for themselves.  Stay tune and enjoy !
