mainwheel - My reasoning for not having stators is simply to make it easier to construct. I understand the need for compression. The question is if it would get enough compression without the stators to be self sustaining. There must atleast be some compression without the stators when the air goes thru multiple "compressors" into the divergent part where i will have the combustion.
I will probebly as an experiment try to build it and try to get it running without the stators first, record the result and then add the stators and record again to see what/how much improvment i got.
