Hi every one,

This is my first post here. I'm a RC modeler looking to build a F22 Twin Ducted fan. What books are out there if any that would have section views of this plane so I can CAD out a model?

Thanks,

Janes would be your best bet. Plus, check out companies like BVM, Century Jet, and Yellow Aircraft, they may already have an F-22 (albiet turbine versions, most likely) that you could rework to twin DF. Of course, if you go the BVM route you'd better be ready to mortgage your house to pay for it, that guy is certainly proud of his products. So, what other DF's you got?

Yahoo or Google "RC models yf-23 ducted fan engine". There are several RC clubs online where some people are interested in "ducted fan RC's models. I haven't paid much attention to model aircraft lately but, I have been interested in ducted fan engines for model jets for many years. Now there are actual model turbine engines that run on kerosene! That is if you have the money. They produce around twenty pounds of thrust!!
