The new improved engine has all the correct volumes and is designed as it should be. It started very easy on 2 psi propane gas and full throttle is 6 psi. It is running on 5 psi in the video. Pulse jet engines do not have to run at full throttle all the time the reed valves hold up much better to run at about 80% thrust. With forward speed and ram air the engine can be throttled up higher.

I have a 15 lb thrust engine that I would like to get running soon. I need to start working on two 50 lb thrust engines pretty soon too. I am going to build a 250 lb thrust engine also, maybe 2 of them.
