Hi!
I'm seriously considering building a two seater ducted light sport aircraft.
The fan trainer appears to be ideal to scale down to MTOW 600kg.
Are there any plans, drawings, pictures available as a guide, out there?

what is the viability to reproduce this FRB 650 using new generation avionics

Other sources say the RFB Fantrainer 400 was powered by a 425hp Allison turboprop engine while the 600 model used the Allison 650hp engine. Too bad the Fantrainer concept wasn't a success. As a former USAF T-37 instructor pilot, I think the Fantrainer had a lot of potential both as a trainer and as an observation/light attack aircraft. It's quiet operation would certainly have been welcomed by Tweet pilots.

I found out about the RFB Fantrainer just a couple days ago. I believed its a neat aircraft.
