Hmm...this makes me interested in putting the old red beast back in action.
I take the EDF needs to be the DF version with larger intakes? Mine has the smaller ones
but extra air could maybe be drawn from a cheater hole somewhere.
I run 12s 5800:s in my T-Rex 700 heli and would just need the fan.
Can You tell the motor KV and the fan diameter?
Now I'd need to pull out everything extra, put a simple landing gear in it,
forget gear doors and make the exhaust from carbon?

BR,
