Very nice! Any more pictures showing the build? Is that black mark a reinforcing spar in the wing? |

No other pictures yet. You can make a page for me, if you will, James: Phoam Phantom Scratch build. Yes, that is a 6mm carbon fiber arrow shaft embedded in the wing laminations. |

rayl. Will this foam bird fly? |

Will this be a sling-shot missile glider? |

John: Hopefully! It will be powered by a 70 MM electric ducted fan. 2-4 channel RC. Did that answer your question Richard(?). |

Slick. A fan jet! |

Yes - big, ducted fan RC foamy jet - very cool! Like your drafstman's diagrams. |

Since I can't figure out how to link the OP build thread here: (1) RC Groups.com, (2) Scratchbuilt EDF'S [under Aircraft-Electric-Jets] (3) Phantom 70MM PLANS on page 2. Richard, I can't take credit for the draftsman's plans as they are on the OP's page. |
