Default Cricri

I have some videos of the tiny Cricri aircraft, but all are of the petrol
engine version.

I know some have been fitted with R/C turbines, but can't find a video. I
have tried Google. I have seen some photos.

Any one know of a video?

Regards
Doug

I have seen this video on the net; ask around on fr.rec.aviation; someone
probably knows where to find it (might be on some non searchable site)

Video of piston twin with tuned pipes:

I'll bet this is the video that you remember.

I already have that video. I was sure I had seen one of the turbine power
Cricri.

Thanks Martin.

I have seen the video of the CriCri with the two little turbines, but
apparently did not save it and can not find a link.

Wow.


I wonder what the range and endurance are. Looks like it could carry
barely enough fuel to get around the pattern. :-)

That might be about as much excitement as the pilot can stand!
