Dos Canis,
Thanks for the tips. I am already on the flyrotary list, but I was seeking some different veiws on the subject. A lot of the aviation community tends to cling to an idea that works whether it is the best solution to a problem or not, a good example being magnetos that have to be...
This aircraft could be made to hover, but it would take at least three on-board gyros, about another dozen servos, a megabuck multi-channel radio and you would probably have to hire an alien with six hands to fly it. I designed it to fly on a simple and cheap 4 channel radio as I have no real...
I have actually played with an idea like this at one time and shelved it for a couple of years when I started working on my homebuilt.
My concept was actually designed to be an ultralight type aircraft with a max gros of about 500lbs. It was basically a flying wing (lifting body) with a...
Thanks to you Greg and Rod,
I now have another option after a reevaluation of my system and, most importantly, the Meredith effect scoop it will be installed in. I am now going to use two 1 1/2" thick cores 6"x24" back-to-back which will allow me to run the cooler in between...
That's a pretty broad question. What in particular are you wanting to know? What kind of power ratings, speed, static thrust, etc are you interested in?

I am installing a Mazda 13B in a homebuilt airplane and I am having trouble deciding how to best assemble the components. The real problem is what order to plumb in the Setrab LOC (oil-to-water) cooler in relation to the radiator. Should it be before the radiator or after? If it is before the...
