Thrust test on the Ejets Jetfan Pro 120mm EDF.
Motor - HET 800-68-685
ESC - Hobbywing 200 amp
Battery - 2 x Genace 6s 5500mah 60C
Radio - Futaba 16IZ with Hobbywing telemetry
Test Stand - JP Hobby EDF Test Stand
First test without the thrust ring was disappointing to say the least. Giving only about 9 pounds of thrust max and leveling off around 8.6 pounds. Experienced around 87 amps.
Second test with the thrust ring install and recharging the batteries was extremely surprising to me. I did not expect that big of a difference in thrust. About 19.2 pounds of thrust initially and leveling off around 18.6 pounds. Experienced around 107 amps at full thrust.
I am extremely pleased with the thrust output. The first plane with will be installed in is around 17-17.5 pounds. So plenty of power.
