New Scratch built EDF TIGER JET


Its winter Had some thoughts about building a New EDF jet that will fly easily off our small and narrow Runway .
Something light but with a wide speed range - with the popularity of 70 and 80 mm EDF's I thought thats would be
what I would build.
I started with a pro type using an EDF- from Flyzone L-39 as a hand launch model with a 70 MM with retracts
to follow - Then an 80/90 mm model.
Specifications: WS 24" Wing Area 156 length 37" wing aspect 3.69 RTF weight 25.6 oz empty weight 19.0 oz
Finally not great weather -but a decent day and got to maiden my Tiger Jet, I had used the cg Calculator but it
was a little tail heavy - i had a good flight -but winds once again winds when up so the slight changes will wait for another day
Now with with minor changes to the ducting and slight changes to the Cg is now flying so much better fly's great at half throttle
easy to hand launch and easy to fly

TIGER JET MAIDEN (2 min 23 sec)

TIGER JET LOW PASS'S (1 min 38 sec)

Thank you : I'm building the next size and enlarging that section will be a challenge - will try to keep the shape
but need a bigger space for retract and 3000 4 s battery
