Видео

Show us the inside of your hangar. Great video.

I don't see you posting any videos of the Firefly anymore. Do you still have it? Are you still flying? I miss these videos, as I live in Michigan too.

I’ve missed going down there….hope you guys are doing well! 👍🙋‍♂️🖖🏻

Would love to see walk around vieo of your firefly and the new Sonex!! Love your flight videos!

Saweet

Curious how your hanger door opens.

where did you get the seat from?

what seatbelt did you use?

Looks great!! Good job! 👍🙋‍♂️🖖🏻

Hi Greg do you have a link to the sketch? I want to use the existing analogue fuel gauge a resistive type. Fuel sensor + arduino + resistive fuel gauge.

Hi Gregg, what size that runway you making?

You still flying this? Hello from Hesperia.

I keep telling myself (gotta build one)… It’s been 3 years since I have been telling myself that

Why no brakes?

What is the max headwind this can take?

Huge balls flying so low to the water, tree top landing or water? Man oh man.. lol. Safe flying!

Nice video bro, but I don’t see any LZs in case of engine out..especially over the lake and trees? Just curious

Just awesome.

Thanks for the video. You're one of the best 👌

Hi Greg, new sub here, I noticed you landed left of the center line? Just curious, every body I see online always says land on the center line,take off center line, taxi out to the strip , center line, Lolol... we’re the winds affecting your landing? Beautiful landing! I have a microlight trike, had a spitfire UL before that, had a bump in the road and had to sell it.. great flying bro just curious about the center line? Fly high and safe!

Nice bird

Well, done Gregg. I enjoyed the flight.

Nice plane...

looks like a blast!

Very nice colour scene

Excellent video but I thought I heard you say it is all aluminum. Isn’t it fabric wing cover?

Красивый, душевный полёт. Спасибо за подаренные прекрасные минуты. Счастья Вам, ясного неба и мягких посадок.

I have a couple of questions 6+ years down the road from this video. are you still slying this plane? Did you upgrade to have an ADS-B device on board? what is the instrament with the LED tree on it indicating? if still flying this, any recomendations as to what it should and shouldn't have?

What do you use for navigation?

Beautiful Kolb! Nice Work.

Hi Gregg. Nice flight, have you ever flown over Big Rapids? I live in Lindsay Ontario Canada but Big Rapids is my home town. I come home about three times a year to visit family. It takes me 8 hours about 485 miles I'am 85 miles north east of Toronto. Happy flying Gregg. Take care

I'm surprised you fly such a large pattern with a ultralight. I fly a closer pattern even in a 150. Nice video and beautiful flight!

I grew up near Silver Lake (Mears/Shelby) and love seeing my home turf. Due to my Navy career (now retired), I didn't move back home and stayed in North Carolina where I met my wife. After watching your videos and all the other Kolb videos I could find, I decided on ordering a new RTF Firefly. My original choice was an Aerolite 103, but I just love the taildragger configuration of the Kold. As a GA pilot, I've flown many types of higher performance A/C to include Citabria lessons to learn the art of avoiding a ground loop. Can't wait to get my Firefly which will be initially painted dark blue to match the Blue Angels. I'll add the yellow to match their designs.

Gregg, I used to live in Evart, Michigan. That's not too far from Reed City. I really love these videos. You look very at home flying that aircraft. I hope you're still flying. I'd like to see a really long flight from takeoff to landing. Exactly what type of ultralight is that you're flying? I'm watching your flights on a projector with a 120" screen. With the camera angle you have, it's almost like flying myself. I hope you'll keep making these videos. Safe flights always.

Really? 4 people disliked this video. Why?!

Hi Gregg, great video, what are the take off / landing distances required. I assume you can use a grass runway if needed?

Looks good, looking to make one for my go kart

Love these planes

Thanks for the video. The 2 gal behind the seat is without oil until you fuel up right? Also, what nav/com do you use?

Nice video, enjoyed watching

Nice video Gregg! Your audio is great considering it's in a noisy Firestar.

I can see this video segway into another video explaining your instrument panel with the various instruments and warning lights. I noticed you even have a small pedestal to hold your Garmin with other "things" beneath it. Your helmet cam does a wonderful job showing things outside your aircraft but can't quite show what you have inside your aircraft. Thanks for all of your videos. They are informative and entertaining.

nice vid and aircraft

don't forget the bread board capacitance! don't know if that has anything to do with any issues you may have. I can not even guess at the times I ran out of gas. in a car. I'm thinking you DO NOT! want to run out of fuel in a aircraft of any kind. I would love to get in to ultralight aircraft. but I'm so bad to run it of gas. it could be bad! I have thought about building one. I'm OK at building things. I can engineer things and they have worked. I'd probably over do it. and end up with a mini P51 or something. I'd like to build a glider with electric motors and solar panels. where the motors do not have to run constantly. allowing some charge time. maybe add a small 2 cycle engine just in case. lithium and other battery technology is getting very good. electric semi trucks. maybe in a few years electric 747 aircraft! in a few years. now 25 pounds of lithium cells can be very potent. in current and amp hours. I just don't know about boarding a maned kite! I'm allergic to sudden stops! great idea. you may want to check out the pre made electronic gauges. for about $70 delivered.

they are a guy with a video of a gauge he sells with lots of adjustability. for $45 + $25 s&h. just search fuel gauges on RUclips.

I guess this is a plane you fly on. correct? I thought mottle at first. I need a simple gauge for a 15 gal fuel cell. and would like it to be either large enough to see from 20' or small. about 1" or less. to put in house. its for off grid home generator. that can be used as much as daily. its a 24 volt system. the cell is fuel for 3 generators. a DC generator and a large ac and small ac generator. I'm wondering if this could be programmed for volts and amps. and or volts and frequency? I don't know if it has space for programming. I don't know arduino. and am new to electronics. but I'm learning.. it would be nice to make a control and monitor board. like the dash of a car. to start the generators from. and monitor rpm temp. fuel level DC volts. AC volts AC Hz. and DC & AC current. all operation conditions. and 3 or 4 hour meters. but all that can wait until later. and can be built a little at a time. great video.

dave smith colo really enjoy your vidios

Congratulations... Do you know how much it costs to built?

Nice greg, carrie and i was just talking about your plane
