I was out at the field last weekend and was catching some grief, from certain Forum administrator's, about lack of posts on the scale forum. So, I will post some updates on my new project. I was in a quandry about where to post this thread, i.e in the electric, jets, or scale forum. Since I am the moderator here, I will post here. This is a TamJets EDF F-16. Specs. are as follows:

Specification:
Length: 54"

It is done in the Edwards AFB scheme.

I like your new airplane jet and look forward to seeing you fly it. :bigplane:

Thanks for the nice pictures and I wish that you could talk some of the NE scallers to post some to.

Do you mean these fellows, Alvin.

Looks like I am going to have to get my moderator tools out :(

I wonder how Billy's F-16 is coming along.

What the heck! :huh:
I must have been drinkin when I posted that!
But I don't drink! :unsure:

My F-16 has been at a standstill due to other obligations. Now that Mardi Gras is over I will be able to get back to it. I will post updates as I go.

Very cool Billy, I like the paint colors too.

I have been able to do a little work on my F-16 over the weekend. Retracts and doors installed

Looking good, Billy! :thumbup:

I have been able to get back to work on the F-16. Here is some more progress.

Is it going to fly at the scale fly-in? :hyper:

I have had to pull the fan and motor three times already due to various reasons (mostly my fault). I have had to fix everything I have installed at least twice! To answer your question, it is ready to fly now, if I don't have to fix anything else. I still have to do some high amp runs to make sure nothing comes apart. This plane uses a 1.5 wind motor on 30 volts at about 79 amps.

Any test flights?

:(

Umm, Frits, I think you've made your reply in the wrong thread here. :D

:embarrassed:

I will have the F-16 at the field for the scale fly-in.
