Air king! You joined back in August of last year, this is your first post and you don't have a squadron of these built yet?!? What in the world have you been doing with your time ?!?

Let us know where you're at so far and we'll help if we can!

 

[airhawk]

[airhawk]

both of us are sketching out at the moment but airking cant scratch build so thats my job

 

[rcspaceflight]

Team work. I like it.

But if you guys have any specific questions ask. We'd gladly answer them and try to help.

I used to watch Fetch... lol. I stopped when they added the cat.

 

[airking]

what do you guys think about a viggin style with a blue angles finish any other ideas that would be helpful please reply when you get the chance

 

[airhawk]

so any recomendations for an edf i was thinking the 70mm fan from grayson hobby

 

[xuzme720]

Sorry, I don't do the EDF thing, at least not yet. Can't recommend what I haven't tried...

From the raving accolades bestowed on the Viggen, I'd say you can't go wrong with it.

Any Updates. can we see what sketching you have done so far

 

[airhawk]

this is rough but if you want it you got it im going to be the one mostly on this project cause air king isn't that involved in flite test i sort of forced him into it and then he sort of got into it a little

If its your first EDF, why go to the trouble of designing your own? I took the FT-22 and modified it to use a 70MM EDF in place of the slot prop and it flew amazingly well. Just a tip though the thrust tube is critical, length 1.5 times the diameter and tapered 2/3 of fan diameter,(I used a red solo cup,(Dixie) with the end cut out as mine and it was sweet till the end. See "lessons learned" forum "fly the plane" post. lol
