    If you’re a fan of crazy builds, Repurposing broken planes, and especially epic crashes. This episode is for you! Thanks to a very generous donation from our friend Tyler Perry we have an opportunity to not only build one of our craziest mash ups ever, but also pay it forward to FT Stem schools in a big way. Today’s goal is simple. Choose pieces of broken airplanes and combine them to make an epic flight machine. To do this we will need everything from glue, carbon fiber, And even a hammer. Make sure you hang around to the end to see what the most epic crashes we have ever had in history of Flite Test. At Flitetest, we celebrate flight and we also celebrate failures. This episode has both.

  • @whawaii
    @whawaii Год назад +14

    When I saw that the engines had up-thrust of about 10° from being parallel (5:56) with the gold stripe (they should be pointed down), that meant the wing incidence is going to be much more than that. TOO much wing incidence will need way more DOWN than those elevators were ever going to deliver. The nose going STRAIGHT UP into a STALL was going to be the outcome and ALL the DOWN Josh was putting in wasn't going to help Humpty (Lil' Jesse) make it back safely together again. This experiment demonstrates why checking the wing incidence is a CRITICAL factor for a successful plane.

    It amazes me how often Flite Test doesn’t check the CG of some of their planes; I don’t believe I saw a CG check in this video. Wing incidence is a little more involved to calculate, but at least balance the CG between the 1/3 and 1/4 mean aerodynamic chord. Or go a step further and use one of the dozens of free online calculators, haha.
    Although this was a great video with a spectacular ending. I just wish it flew for a couple flights before it crashed. 😂

    • @davidjester5085
      @davidjester5085 Год назад +10

      -Hmm, I’ll give you benefit of the doubt. Still a super entertaining video as always.
      -I’d recommend showing more of each plane’s CG and C.R.A.P. checks in future videos. Especially for your designs that you can’t test glide by hand before the first flight, like these big monster builds.

      At least as much of a problem as wing incidence, thrust angle. Pause at 14:12 and take a look at the angle on the motors. As long as power was applied, the nose was gonna rise.
