Highest Thrust EDF
 

Hi All,

I'm working on a project requiring a high thrust edf. I'm looking for something in the +40lb static thrust range in the 90 - 140mm range. I can't seem to find anything above the high 20's. Does anyone know of anything that might work in this range?

Thanks

Mike

You wont do 40lb thrust with an EDF. You would be looking at one of the larger turbines, something like this: http://www.sitewavesstores5.com/mm5/...gory_Code=TURB

If you wanted 40lb thrust out of an electric set up then it would have to be a prop (a big one!)

yeah that's a might big order to fill there. Even two BVM fans wouldn't do it...

Don't be discouraged; you'd probably be looking at something custom, or at least a multi EDF system. What did you have in mind to power something with so much oomph? Even my mother in law's broom struggles to maintain her mass in flight....

BWAHAHAHAHA that made me laugh. i always wondered how my sister inlaw powered her broom hahaha

90-140mm range is out of bounds range for a subject with that thrust on either. It is not necessary
to attain 1:1 thurst to AUW for flight. Flight is typically an airframe at a weight 1.623 times the static
thrust in pounds.

Now, after rethinking your objects weight and shape...is it something best suited to a quad or still in
the realm of wings, stab, and fuselage with more forward than vertical motion?

What you are looking for is outside the (sUAS) world...and upstream in the UAS sector. All of what
you will find within these forums are sUAS.

Is your project more first person visually oriented?

Don't know that you noticed "everyone" came by to see what's up....over 200 in the blink of an eye.
With sUAS sensitivities raised its kinda freaky these days. Preservation of our rights is upper most on
our minds.
