That's where my mind has been lately. How to convert my CR-V into a plug-in mild-hybrid.?.
Even with all the hardware (old 4WD setup) I've got to work with, it's still gonna be a biaash to get a pre-charged battery pack to deliver me some better MPG out of the old V..
But, could a motor like the
Mars ME-0708 PM Pancake 12-48 VDC Brushed
Battery Powered Systems
deliver a thrust equal to 4 or 5 HP?
Assuming one could be installed in a 20" or 30" OD ducted fan? Modeled after the little RC Ducted Fans?
Humm, I might have get a MUCH bigger lathe..
Edit:
Looking at the plots in this RC EDF manual,
http://manuals.hobbico.com/gpm/gpmg3...anual-v1_1.pdf
it sure looks like the thrust goes up nicely with RPMs..
Maybe I should buy one of these and see if it's possible to scale it up..?.
(And, I could stick in on top on my little glider and make it say ZOOM!).
