Indoor EDF jet.
While having so much of fun with my huge Indoor 3/D/Pattern fleet I finally decided to build an EDF indoor version. Hoping for a tiny 10-20mm power set up did not eventuate after years of search, so I went for 30mm I have great experience with.
the 1st. one was such a success I built 2nd. one for even more indoor fun after reopening of my Indoor venues.
In the meantime I'm making most of them outside at indoor conditions.

TX, own design like most of my larger Deltas, model AUW is ~100 grams incl. 2S/360mA battery. Today had my premiers indoor flights in Coffs rather small venue at 23x33m, but no problem maneuvering in that space with 6 b/ball dunks sticking out.
Couple of indoor test flights, all good.

Running much hotter on heavier 2S/460 in larger local indoor venue. I can easily circle it in less than 10meters with my new Rudder function.
1st. indoor runs at local venue.

Working on the new Micro variety, each 24-28mm power unit is fully scratch build.
My latest 1S powered micro addition.
More power units on the way.
Playing up with TH/tubes to get the best out of it.

After completion of my latest 2S Micro EDF experiment, I thought I rather test fly it outdoors than in restricted indoor space.
Today turned out to be a perfect day for it, almost dead calm Twilight, loaded up first with 2S/300mA/NT battery at assumed
marked CofG position and gave it nice hand launch while standing bit higher on the skate park ledge.
Couldn't believe it, just about perfectly set up model, just a fraction nose heavy to be on the safer side than other way around.
Awesome flier, so even more fun coming up this week at couple of indoor venues. Happy as could be!
My latest 27mm EDF creation, ~50grams AUW.
Premiere Twilight hand launch.
Awesome flier.
Landing flare.

First indoor runs, even this large stadium is bit restrictive for this hotter 2S power but good fun to keep you alert.
18th of June, freezing cold day even for indoors down in Sth/Hemi.
