This was a first for me! All I had to go off with this design were a few grainy fuzzy images from the cell phone videos of this "J-36.0" (914mm) flying around China. I actually started working on it before i saw the top view. This was a collaboration between myself and Thomas Heuer. I originally got the design to fly and Thomas added some nice detail work and refined the intakes to look more scale.
The design does fly well. It can be easily hand launched. Its not a fighter jet by any means. It flies like a bomber would. This design can be flown on 3, 40mm xfly EDF's or 2! I personally have not flown it on 2 but If i could go back and do it over i may use 2 edf's to cut the weight down a little and simply it. Totally up to you.
