i am making a jet electric plane i want to know that which power of motor i have to use and which esc and which battery. the size of plane is 42" long and 27" is wing i load a image which is not compleate the nose part is panding i want to use edf and the powerfull motor. please suggest

Great efforts!!!! would like to see it complete!!!!!
use 64 or 70 mm EDF unit with around 4000 Kv rating. u may require ESC of around 40A and battery 3s Lipo with min 1800mah ideal would be 2200, ofcourse with 30c rating!!!!!!!!

enjoy!!!!

What material is that?

work in progress...........

Hey now a lot of people are surfacing from harayana side I am also a native of haryana anwal (rohtak).

Ya i would also like to know What material is that?
Nice work 

this is made of tharamacol sheet.

Wow.. looks nice.. Is it normal thermocol? I guess u'll have to use carbon or something to strengthen it..

Along with carbon / kabab sticks etc, it would be a good idea to cover it with electric tape.  Thermocol doesn't take smalls dings lightly at all.

when it will complete with coloring and all things. i will  laminate it with transparent plastic.

i want to know which type of color i use on it.

Try acrylics, they dont shedd off like others. (i cant tell you any expert advice)

If you really want some good paint job stick to Proline paint

Regarding motor, can u tell approx weight of your jet..?
Note- painting can increase the weight extensively. do make sure that you take a note on it.

weight is not too much just 250to300 gms without electric part. i want to know that how is spray colors

They are cool too, and wont weigh much if sprayed properly.

ready for painting.......

anyone please tell me 64mm edf with 4600kv out runner motor, 45a esc and 11.1v 2200mah 3s 20c battary is good for it or not...

My guess is it would require more than a 3S 20C battery. You would need to go for at least a 4 to 5 S with more than 35C..Just a personal opinion dude..

In btwn its come up very nicely. Good work

Great job... wondering how you got those jet exhausts in shape???
May be its just me or the picture is not clear but I think the horizontal stabilizers need to have to open up little more.. no?

I expect you have used compressed thermocol for the model.
For colouring, use only water based spray colours, reason being, your model may shrink due to solvents in  normal acrylic colors .( you can see the result by applying a small amount of petrol on your waste thermocol .)
. If you want to use acrylic, then test a fraction of colour on the leftover thermocol.Further if you want to have a glossy look, you can use water based acrylic colours used for glass paintings, which you can get from local stationary shops.
For painting, u can use mouth spray after masking the area not desired for particular colour, using paper.You can also use hand spray, even a soft toothbrush.
A mouth spray costs Rs 15.00
A spray brush costs Rs 30 to 35.00.

I partly agree dude, what i think is that for efficient utilization of a 35c 2200 mah battery you will need atleast a 100A esc, thats just my opinion, sorry if i am wrong

Great job...! I want to see that all complete with a nice color scheme. Keep updating us.
And don't forget to post a maiden video if you can...
