LT, did you get my pm? Hope you got the clearer pictures. I re-posted them a second time with higher quality images and put the link there, too.

Anyone else have any mid-prop jet or delta wing plans to share?

Well we took the F-15 out and maidened it, not so good. I guess my idea of EDF was just not as good as I thought or I must have something wrong with the thrust because it just won't maintain flight, it will launch and look good for about 50 ft the slowly decend untill it lands. Now on the bright side it handles very well, at least for short distances , anyway I'm gonna remove the EDF motors and out a motor prop set up on the tail end as it was designed, I made 16 attempts and the farthest it flew was about 60 yds. Then I put the E-Starter up, I was using the 10.8 batt I have and man did it scream, ended in disater though, I'm having proba with it cutting out and it appears when it does that I'm loosing all controls, I think my ESC is failing, anyway I managed to get some great flying in and was coming around and it just suddenly decided it wanted to land on it's nose. crushed the cowl and broke the motor loose, haven't taken it apart yet to see how bad but this is the perfect excuse to install the new motor and ESC I have for it
well got to see how bad it is now
Later dudes

Sorry it did not work out. Hope to see some video with the rear prop set up. You going to try and rebuild the E-Starter, or is it to far gone? I have seen video of the F-15 with EDF. Not sure why yours is'nt working.

String,
Got your PM. The new pic are great. I can read them now. Thanks.

Chris,
Sent you a PM.
Thanks

What happened to 38????

I received 4 jet plans. Did you send more? Glad to see you got to fly. Still working on getting my new house in order. Someday I will be back out there.
Good news--- Walking in Freds Yesterday, Saw a 4 engine jet airliner RTF. Stopped and looked at it. To my surprise the wife said "You want it? We can get it for Fathers day" I was wondering How much power the EDF had. Just a thought....

Your server will determine the size of files you can e-mail. The files you sent me were just under 2 MB. You said you downloaded from another forum??? Would it be easier for me to download from there????
