Modifying GT to Tesla: Is a Cri Cri Plane Possible?

[Mustafa Umut]

I found plans of Cri Cri airplane , one of the smallest airplane in the world.

I found that their engines could be model gas turbines .

Can I change compressor and turbine wheels with tesla discs ?

I even want single disc for compressor and single disc for turbine .

Can it be done , is there an example ?

Thank you ,

Hi Mustafa Umut Sarac,

That's really interesting that you found plans for the Cri Cri airplane! I've always been fascinated by small planes and their capabilities.

Regarding your question about using Tesla discs for the compressor and turbine wheels, I'm not sure if there is a specific example of this being done with a Cri Cri airplane. However, I do know that Tesla discs have been used in various other applications, such as in electric motors or for creating thrust in propellers.

In theory, it might be possible to use Tesla discs in the Cri Cri's engine, but it would likely require significant modifications and testing to ensure safe and efficient operation. I would recommend consulting with a professional engineer or aircraft mechanic for their expertise and advice on this matter.

Best of luck with your project and happy flying!
