This is perhaps my earliest iteration to begin designing both a visually pleasing and practical propulsion system for RC aircraft or any other vehicles. Instead of using an EDF, I want to make a propulsion system where almost everything is 3d printed (besides motor, bearings and shaft), which lets me make it look a lot more like a jet engine as well as producing more power than the typical hobby EDF as it is a compressor system.Producing a combustion powered jet turbine is not possible with mainly 3d printed components, so this is simply a compressor fan system (the first half of the jet engine), but I would assume it to be possible to add combustion without an exhaust turbine. Important note: The hole for the impeller has not been bored in CAD so that you can make an adequate hole for whatever you are using to spin it.
