Radial electric impeller

[spiritplumber]

This uses stock textures/models, so it's very simple. I wanted to have something that would work as an air breathing electric engine, without installing plugins or loading extra textures, because I'm on an older computer.

It is possible to circumnavigate Kerbin with this, but it takes a while (I used Mechjeb, attitude hold, and actually managed to nap through the flight).
