    That weather could not have been more perfect. Excellent series guys thanks. I have been flying RC for years, but still find your videos entertaining and informative. You are doing a great job of introducing people to the hobby. Keep it up!

    I like watching these older videos of yours. When I am in Canton and pass your place on I77 right by the Hall of Fame bridge, I am always looking for odd stuff flying when I pass. Would be nice to be able to stop in when I am staying down in the area which is often, I am in Plain Township right by the Hall of Fame. Keep up the great work!

    Have done this with a 1/4 scale Piper Cub tail, a length of square section of plastic drain pipe, a Precedent Low Boy wing and a OS .40FP series two stroke engine. fish tailed like crazy, could not do any aerobatics but was good at touch and goes.

    I can relate to Bixler, when he says he started out with 0.049s and started cheap. Because I'm so cheap I opt to build my own planes from scratch, yea it's kinda neat to see your own design up there but the real reason for me is I'm cheap.

    Some of my best planes that I flew or made out of pieces and parts /Frankenstein planes where the best that I had fun with because I did not care about wrecking them. “They were pieces and parts”. That one that you’re flying now seems to have beautiful flying abilities for a beginners plane. You need to copy that plan design. and market it as a beginner plane.

    Great choice of backdrop..lightning bolts in the background for the maiden flight of a plane called Frankenplane. Honestly though, how many shoots did it take to get the flashing bolts? I found myself expecting it to be struck. Awesome show all around; content, editing, narrating and, most of all, interaction with respect and encouragement. Love your show.

    • @BrightBlueJim
      @BrightBlueJim 6 лет назад

      I think most of those were fake. The one at 11:43 certainly is.

  • @lewismcgarry1349
    @lewismcgarry1349 3 года назад

    I used my min talon wing then added the 2 spars from the fuselage then made a twin boom. I then also just made a cardboard tube, glued it on. Added all my electronics and it flew quite well.

    This episode had a different touch and it was a nice twist. Nice having Frankenplane go up on a stormy day. I have to ask, was the lightning authentic or cg?
    Will there be a Bride of Frankenplane (with a radical hairdo)?

  • @WheelDweller
    @WheelDweller 8 лет назад

    Kudos on making the metaphor of "Frankenplane" in time to catch the edge of a lightning storm, making the whole thing scary!
    Just a tip: there are two kinds of sailplane wings:
    - Polyhedral: tips that come up (3 channel)
    - Dihedral: a bend in the middle (4 channel)
    There is no "polyDIhedral". All wings should have some dihedral, but it's pronounced "polyhedral" when there are tilted wingtips.

  • @simio1337
    @simio1337 13 лет назад

    I gotta say that unless lightning hits right on top of you there will always be a second or more of delay with the bang depending how far it is.

    Very cool vids, keep up the great work... what's the setup for your film crew? Would be an excellent video to see how you guys shoot and produce your segments. Looks like alot of work, but the end result is always spectacular and fun to watch. What camera do you use? Looks like a dslr instead of a video cam? Cheers!

  • @PaintfullGovernor
    @PaintfullGovernor 11 лет назад

    I built a 3ch plane just like in this video (Pitch & Yaw) out of an Air Ace III B17 Betty, 2 clothes racks and 2 Jamara Servos. The funny thing is, that you need two people to fly it because it´s got two receivers. One for the 4 motors and one for the two servos. (If i could find out what voltage and amperage those motors tolerate i might be able to put it all together but i dont think i ever will.)

    @simio1337 If the difference between flash and bang is 5 seconds then it was aprox 1 mile away. Speed of sound is 768mph at 20°C (slower when it's colder) which gives you 5 seconds per mile.

    That was great! I like that airplane! if you can find a video link so you can use two cameras on for fpv and one looking down to drop a bomb or bombs! There has to be some thing out there to use so you can change the camera's!? if it can be done you guys can do it! but put the lower cam a little for word so you can time the bombs!? what do you think?
