Home Made EDF Jets 70MM Hot!

[starcop]

Hello Pilots, I had a customer post a pretty neat EDF jet he builds. It's made from scratch & uses one of the Freewing 70MM EDF Jet fans we sell. It's installed in a "Beer" Cup to boot! You wouldn't know it from the way it appears. I just think it's something to be shared, when a guy takes nothing and makes it into something. Not many builders will be enjoying the hobby as we had to as kids. With the invention of EPO, EPP, EPS ESP"; you get the point. Everything going to the quick build pilot, nothing wrong with that. I just still enjoy, good old fashion work; that building a model from scratch.


Enjoy, Matt

Haven't flown the 90 mm variant yet....just finished her today.....numbers indicate she's got a 1.85:1.0 thrust to weight ratio......
I'm hoping she's ballistic......
