Use 64mm ~70mm EDF and 4s 2200mah battery. Very stable and easy to fly.
Can combat or just flying together peacefully.
Easier to fly than propeller fighter.
It all startet half a Year ago when I wanted to scratch build a new EDF jet. My FMS 50mm unit went through 4 different planes before, but they all lacked something. They didnt flew well enough. I wanted something that was both fast and slow, but light enough to climb vertical. I began picturing...
My 1st attempt at designing an EDF Jet!
Tested with the Powerfun 64mm EDF ,11 blade 3500kv motor, and x2 1300 mah 4s batteries in parallel. ( A single 2600mah 4s battery will probably be easier to work with though)
This is an advanced build without any formal instructions. If you have...
I've lurked around these forums long enough. Time to share my latest project: an easy-to-fly foamboard jet built around a 3900kV (3S) 64mm FMS EDF unit.
Wingspan is 120cm; AUW (with 3S 3000mAh) is 1150g.
Very wide flight envelope. It has a large wing surface so it floats forever. It flies like...
I like to design things that don't exist.
This video opened a new window for me. First came learning to use and fly EDF's in the 64mm range. Then came 2d thrust vectoring nozzles that were popular and then I got into trying to improve a higher alpha for the plane. I did alot of testing using...
Alright I'm new to the FT forums so idk what I'm doing, but I made an f-14 and decided to share it with yall in case someone wants to replicate it.
It uses a Freewing 5 blade 3s 64mm edf, and a 3s 1800mah lipo. It can get 3 minutes of flight time depending on throttle use. It's wing sweep it...
This is a fast, fun flying 50mm EDF jet! It's a basic build without a ton of parts, it's got a basic control setup of throttle, elevator, and ailerons to keep things simple. Just build one already :D
Speed-
Top speed is great and slows down very well for landing. I was able to clock V1 doing 64...

After flying (and crashing) my C-17, I decided to repurpose two of the EDFs in a new jet: the F-5 Tiger-II!
It's not the prettiest jet on the block, but it's fast so be ready!

The Grunjet is a two sheet foamboard jet that flies fast and sporty, can slow down to a crawl for landings, and is packed with amazing vertical performance. All only costing less $80 to build from the ground up! With this plane you have the option of building it with a V tail or a standard tail...

Hi. Im looking to fly and build my first EDF jet and dont know which one to buy. I would really like one to be under 200 USD that already comes with the radio and everything. Do you know any good kits for me to build? If so please send the link. Thank you so much.
