We tried the fan at a 1:6 ratio, we tripped the breaker before we could even get to a decent speed. We're looking at 1:1 as a very good ratio right now. We're looking at the possibility of two non-rotating fans for directional control. 2 weeks is plenty of time....

I'd suggest trying a 1:2 ratio. Because at peak power output you're gonna get about 2.6k rpm out of the CIM, and if you double that, for that kind of prop, you should be at a very good thrust. Also try to minimize your pitch, otherwise you'll be stalling the whole time. XD
