Default RE: Effect of wind speed on EDF thrust

Beaner,
I understand and agree as far as the lift goes, what I'm interested in is how wind impacts the fan units performance. As you go upwind and you have the wind blasting into the inlet duct at a constant throttle set poin does the fan naturally put out higher thrust and going downwind does it lreduce thrust?

Best, DennisT
