Default EDF's are the future

sure would be nice to get some of the RCU pilots to show some interest in the new wave of EDF's

Have you seen the power (watts) out-put of the new fans ?
Have you seen the new JF120 eco ?
Have you seen the wave of very high quality receiver ready 90-105mm foamie EDF's ?
Have you ever heard of Schubeler,StuMax,Wemotec,HET,and many many more ?

lets open this Universe up to some new EDF stuff
if you don't own a Stinger 90 you better get one !

Mate, this hobby is just about half dead! The new generation cares more about tattoos, studs on their body parts or silly ipods than creating something. Just enjoy what you are doing. I agree, EDFs is the way to go, just plug it in and off you go!

It takes a very special breed to land jet on aircraft carrier. That's why everyone is flying them. J.

yeah right , we have all these sunny days and flat desert pans for flying these beauties. I just picked up a second xXx jet and for power Im installing the BVM EVF 3 12S . should work pretty good with 20lbs of thrust on my 16lb jet
what do you think ?
also just picked up some MKS servos 6625 and 747 , havnt used these before but they are very good quality and tested to 498mph with a DS glider, Im only going 200mph

Got my first EDF after about 15 years of flying.....Only started with Electric parkflyers a few years ago. I absolutely agree. This E-Flight Habu UMX is so much fun I had to get 3 more batteries. My other planes sit now. All I want to do is fly me EDF! Currently looking for more to buy. Wish I had a good field so I could land them, landing gear on these often dont like grass fields, or so I hear.

I also agree, I can't seem to get a response to save my life on here anymore!
