I received my order from Hobby King today. There is a US quarter in the image to show you just how small these fans unit all. Each fan unit is rated at 2.33 ounces of thrust. Since my intake area is small and there will be NO ducting inside I expect to get at best 1.5 ounces each. So that gives me a whopping 3 ounces of combined thrust. If this model was to be hand launched 3 ounces of thrust wouldnt do much but since my Navaho will already be at altitude the 3 ounces should be plenty to give just a little extra forward momentum to make a couple of extra turns before landing the model.
The two brushless motor fan units, two speed controls and 2-Cell Lipo battery come in at 2.27 ounces. Ill save a little more weight once I get rid of that massive yellow battery connector and install something more suitable to the 10 Amp current draw..
