Smoke!

[willsonman]

So, David and his genius have produced a working afterburner for an EDF. My challenge is this:

Make a smoke system that be assembled from fairly common parts that will not break the bank. NO PYROTECHNICS!

I'm entirely electric in my fleet but I've no clue on how to do something like this. An electric plane with a smoke system would be good fun at the field. There are foam-safe smoke fluids out there so I know this can be done. Get it small and practical.

Here are some concepts. I'm guessing the fog machine probably uses too high a temperature to be useful (and liquid is pretty heavy).

Ooohhh..... This looks really promising and adaptable:

You could have 2 or three of them together for more smoke.

you need pretty "dense" fog if you know what im thinking, because if its thin smoke, itl just disperse and be gone right after release, with all the turbulence on the aircraft.

I like this idea. I'm looking for exhaust simulation personally but I think it could possibly be expanded with smoke liquid of some sort.
