Default RE: Glow- electric conversion advise

Let's look at weight of plane, the area in the fuse to house your EDF unit, ducting for the EDF, are you going single or twin EDF. Looks like your plane might be in the 12-14 lbs category for that fan. How about the BVM EDF unit or what is available at Jet Hangar? Those units will give you about 12-14 lbs thrust. Also your power set up will be in the 8S-10S region. Going to take a second mortgage?

You can also get a lot of assistance in RC Groups on this ... they got some really crazy EFD guys there.
