    Physics Based Theory on EDF Thrust Tubes and Inlets

    Forward: For a week I've been attempting to research whether there were physics based rules one could use to size the inlet and exhaust of EDF power systems. I've searched through a variety of theorems, principles and concepts and after many brain straining nights I think I've finally crafted a...

    EDF Design Journey

    I've somehow been working on my own interpretation of an EDF RC plane for five years now. The development of my designs have coincided with my growth in understanding Aerodynamic theory. Lets go through memory lane. The Last Bullfighter: Eight times I've attempted to create a mixed...

    Help! I am making a flying wing design thrust ratio?

    Help! I bought the parts of my first plane off banggood (I wanted to do it myself and design it im sorry but it is carbon fibre ) and my plane weighs 403 grams and has a thrust of 285 grams, will it fly? I realise i was stupid not checking for weight... It is a flying wing design with a wing...
