With an EDF you can only push out the back what you take in the inlet. Anything bigger then a 100mm fan is wasted weight. I did get to fly my old a few months ago and its still flying great for the guy that bought it. Was a real joy to fly. Dont forget to move the CG about a 3/4 inch forward
Gunradd, I've read a lot of the thread on your F-16. That was a beautiful jet. Do you have any good recommendations for a 100mm fan? I love the idea of the Stumax as I've heard great things about his fans, but I'm more than willing to look at some other options with the advice of someone with experience.
