Hi all,

I am looking to build a Hawker Hunter using the 118mm wingspan plans from Hobbystore, I want to power it with turbine.

Can anyone assist with the width of fuselage where turbine would mount, ie internal measure of bulkheads by wing.

Happy landings,

Regards,

John A.

Am I reading it correctly, 118mm wingspan? That's just over 4.5 inches? Too small to fly with a turbine.

I would suggest starting with an EDF (Electric Ducted Fan) and they are very powerful and suitable for a small to average sized Jet.     Jet Turbines is suitable for large models (and are expensive to buy and run.)

RM478 - Hawker Hunter

Wingspan: 1118mm
Engine Size: 0.45

That's designed for a Wemotec Mini Fan 480, but you can buy a Lander set up if you want more power. I think 1118mm span is too small, and even if you do manage to put a jet turbine in, it wll be too powerful as it will go like a rocket. .

Ideally double the size (2236mm) and it would be more suitable for a turbine.
