Those inlet ducts look a little small for EDF. Plus, if you want EDF you'd have to make some ducting for the air flow to the fan. Not a huge deal as long as you know what you are looking for with the EDF ducting, but certainly more work than putting in a Rabbit and getting it set up for turbine.

I have a Tamjets A-4, but I'm not familiar with the CJM kit. What are the dimentions and projected weight? Looks like it will be fun!

Lewis Patton had one of those sitting in his shop for 2-3 years. He could never get CJM to finish the landing gear or internals for it. When I saw it back in 2007, at Lewis' house, I thought it was a good looking start, but they never finished it.

This kit was originally made by Airchamp models. I had one, it flew nice.

Joe,
He likes the way it looks and does not care that it is annoying to most.
