In my first thread for the 1/2A topic, I mentioned there were a lack of impeller options available to suit the Skyray 1/2A kit that I'm working with.
After brousing through a few web pages, I think I have found an impeller that is currently produced that will work. It will require a minimum of modification to bolt up to a TD, and has the correct diameter for the design.
If the impeller has the proper amount of blade area and pitch, I am in luck. I will have to see how it performs after testing the out-of-production Veron blade from England that I will try out first.
The company's name is WeMoTec, and they are based in Germany. The unit that uses the blade is thier version called the "Midi Fan". It has a diameter of 92mm (approx. 3.5"), and is designed for electric use.
A simple rework will have to be performed to remove the motor shaft stem from the inside of the hub, and it should bolt up and balance quite easily after that. It is made of glass filled nylon, which should stay fuel-proof also.
They also sell the rotor and spinner seperate, saving a bit of money by not having to buy the entire unit, and then using only half of it for the project. The U.S. distributor is Electric Jet Factory for WeMoTec. Could a ROG Skyray be in the air soon?..................
