Note From Steve Shumate:
 Although I have been very happy to freely distribute the plans and build manuals for all my previous park jet designs, the F-14 required so much more work to develop that I decided it would be nice to make a little something back for all the time and effort I put into it. I did not want to simply sell the plans, since I thought that would severely limit how widely the plans would be shared. So I decided to go with the voluntary contribution route.

You may download, print, use, and share these plans as you like, however, if you enjoy them please consider sending a small contribution to the designer to show your appreciation for all the work that went into developing them. The suggested contribution is $10, and can be sent via PayPal to jetset44@verizon.net.
Thanks for your support!

Build Log - A "Pimp My Ride" Shumate/6mmFlyRC F-14


If you're looking for high speed, here's a great setup:


 Himax 2025-5300,

 2100 mAh 11.1 V lipo,

APC 7x6 prop,

25 amp ESC.

 This setup will pull about 20 amps and should provide a top speed of nearly 70 mph.

That's quite a bit faster than the 50-55 mph you get with my usual park jet setup (Himax 2015-4100, 4.4 gearing, APC 9x7.5 prop), at the expense of about 3 oz more weight.
Parts List for Twin Microfan EDF Conversion

As promised i have started the shopping list for this Conversion with the help of the list already created by PLATINUM in the park pusher forum of Steves thread. Please feel free to input or comment or anything on this list and i will adjust until we have the correct list.

Where is says optional this for moving rudders on the vertical tail which is not essential to fly this F-14.

Decals (Jolly Roger) Optional (Free)
