Print the most popular Electric Turbo Fan with Functional Reverse Thrusting!
FILES ONLY for a 3D Printed Electric Turbo Fan Model with Functional Reverse Thrusting. It is based on a Rolls Royce Trent 1000 Turbo Fan. It utilises a brushless motor for the by fan and a MG996R Servo to operate the reverse thrusting function. All controlled by an Arduino NANO .
If you don't have a 3D printer and would like a fully assembled model or a kit (Excluding Battery), send me a message and I'll be more than happy to discuss :)
