Jet Powered air engine

AD: Go to: https://pvcase.com/JamesBruton try PVcase for free! You can’t suck yourself along with a vacuum cleaner, so don’t bother trying that. However, I did build a vacuum cleaner powered air engine which I could ride along on. This design was inspired by YouTuber Matthias Wandell, and his original design was made from wood. I’ve built a few projects recently where I pushed myself along with electric ducted fans. These run on a 6S LiPo battery and draw 80 Amps each, so they are rated at nearly 2KW each. That gives us quite a lot of airflow, and also quite a lot of pressure. Project Air recently built a hovercraft that would carry a person with just four of these EDFs providing air to inflate the skirt. So this time I’m going to build a two cylinder version of the air engine, with each cylinder being driven by an EDF. We’ll see if this is more efficient that just blowing the air against the atmosphere to propel me.
