Ron,
3 minutes??? Don't your numbers on the Dyn-E-Max assume you're flying full-throttle all the time? Just one of those fans would take off and fly this airplane. The E-Turbax equipped one flies at half throttle! Not every jet needs to be a paper airplane to fly nicely. This bird flies and glides BEAUTIFULLY with the twin E-Turbax setup, so the added weight of the Dyn-E-Max setup would scarcely cause the airplane to fly badly. Saving some weight and adding a minute of flight time would hardly be worth the realism you'd lose (sound-wise) with the TJ setup. At some point, what's the point of having a scale jet if it sounds so unrealistic? The Stumax sounds GREAT and the Dyn-E-Max sounds AWESOME.
Hey Sean,
the three minutes I was talking about was with the Ramtec Fan that Doc has(read a few post back)... those have a higher pitch and are pulling LOTS-0-AMPS
(120amps)
I think the Dyn-e-max would do fine with the Scropion 630 kv out runner(95 amps)...
Stu's and Tams are still going to be the best setup..... were talking pounds of fans, esc , a batt. lighter.
Sean... there is a new sweet sounding TJ-100 with the seven blade stator..add a soft mount and at these low power levels per fan it will sound great too...
The biggest problem with EDF is flight time right now... so make it light and you will extened it... it makes a 3:30 flight go to 5:30 for me that's a huge differance, like night and day
3:30 is not acceptable in my book it must at least do 5:00 or I don't want it
