Hello, How are you ? My name is Mike, How can I help you have an RC good time ?
I have an FMS F-16 with what I believe i s a 70mm fan.....I need to order a new fan blade, the original is horribly out of balance right out of the box. I bought the plane from Frank at Diamond Hobby but he said that your company bought him out. So.....can I order a fan from you?
Michael D.
let me see what i can find
Michael D.
Before I order, is it a ten blade fan?
Michael D.
Well, I am holding the new , original fan that came with the jet and it is a ten bladed fan.....is there an exact replacement available?
Michael D.
that is the only FMS replacement fan i am seeing on my end ,
OK, I guess I will try it, but experience tells me there will most likely be a different thrust ratio....that being said, I am sure it will push the plane fast enough to get it airborne, so I will give it a try. I lived in Rantoul many years ago, I wish Horizon had been there when I was.....the early 70's. Thanks for your time.
Michael D.
less blades should be more torque and less top speed on a ducted system , but you will not see that much of a difference in 2 blades. it will still do the job
Yeah, you're correct.....I found that out a long time ago by experimenting with removing every other blade, etc. Thanks again.
Michael D.
