fred cenko Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 I wonder if the Raaus would allow a 19 class registration for this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Have to be the exact opposite of what would be the appropriate power source. Low thrust engine, High drag plane. Doesn't make much sense. The fuel consumption/ Km would be horrendous. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 I bob, the thrust figure would be pathetic. Unless a jet does speed (moves) there is no real power. W = FxS The big break through in Jets was the turbofan. High bypass engine. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolo_ford Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Doesn't matter how much thrust, once you reach takeoff speed you cannot go any faster, climb rate will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 That type of flying machine needs thrust= pull. Jets don't have it, especially a pure jet (without bypass) Draggy machines have a great capacity for absorbing power, if you try for speed when the design is not that way orientated. The geometry of a powered parachute (low thrust line) means the vehicle will climb if the thrust is large and I guess you could get into a bit of strife that way if you overdid it.
