Default Some general fan quetions - please help!

I am trying to choose a fan, but I am running into specifications I don't understand.

How do I gauge power output? All I can compare anything to is nitro engines. What would the pounds of thrust be that woud be equivelant to a nitro engine?

What is static thrust?

What is the difference in the number of fan blades? Is more blades equal to more air moved? Would more blades require a more powerful motor?
