Hi all,
Here is an easy to build, cheap, and fun to fly 50mm EDF jet named, the Grunjet.
(flights on 4s)
(flight on 3s)
About the Grunjet:
This Plane is a 50mm EDF Sport jet that was designed to introduce people to jets without many of the bad characteristics that you typically get when you build/purchase a Ducted fan type aircraft. To begin with, it's quite inexpensive.When made from the ground up, It will cost you less than 80$ ready to fly. Minus your Radio and Transmitter. It has tons of power, unlike many jets out there, giving you the ability to do near endless vertical, and take off from the ground...without landing gear! The Grunjet also features large ailerons letting you pull off some very fast rolls, and giving you plenty of control at lower speeds.

What you can do is open up the plans in Adobe Reader and select print. After the print window opens up there should be a section in the middle of the window labeled "Page Sizing & Handling" right below that there should be options to choose between "Size" "Poster" "Multiple" and "Booklet" You are going to want to select the "Poster" option. Next, ensure your tile scale is set to 100%, your overlap is set at 0.005 in. and that you have the "Tile only large pages" option selected. You can also select "Cut marks" which will make taping the sheets of paper together easier, but it will increase your page count from 8 to 12. Lastly, go down to the bottom of the print window and click print.
Note: If you do not have the poster option on your laptop you may need to upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader. It may even be old enough that looking in the program options for updates does not work. You will have to go to Adobe website to get new version
