Is it really that quiet? I put it on good speaker and I still can’t hear it ! Looks really good. Where can I get more detail? Think I’d like to try at least using an electric on my 3 engine option to replace the pioneer. Also Tedlar and tape is difficult to acquire . The 3rd engine mounted behind the seat allowed us to fly in inhospitable terrain and on floats at 3000 ASL. With one engine out. Also handled floats well which it would not do with just the 185’s.
I use the cameras wind noise reduction feature that seems to remove most of the prop and electric motor noise but it does not seem do so as much when the plane is on the water. It is pretty quiet though. You should have enough details in the video description of this video to try out my electric setup: ruclips.net/video/EHAaNfEwbMg/видео.html A lot of people are using Duralar (basically mylar) and keeping the plane out of the sun when not flying. There are lots of weather resistant single sided outdoor tapes nowadays and 3M VHB double sided tapes that will last longer than the Duralar.
@@DaleCKramer No question you had more fun. well not sure if you played with the DJI drones, but they have wicked ability to follow a subject while running patterns around it.. for instance, draw a box around the Lazair to select it, then have the drone circle the Lazair while constantly keeping it in focus.
@@DaleCKramer would be interesting to just run a mic with dead cat to try and get an accurate sound of motor, props, and wind. is there any kind of audible harmonizing with all 4 motors buzzing? similar to how the engine sounds of twin engines go in and out of sync?
The turn was accomplished at ~34 mph airspeed, 2600 rpm cruise power and ~20 feet of altitude was gained. There was some top aileron given in the turn which makes the turn rate higher. (I had a camera videoing my instruments ;) )
Great perspective of the Lazair and all the scenery below. Hope you make more. It's as close as I will ever get to flying a Lazair. Great job Dale.
I'm not sure how you mounted the camera but that is an awesome video. I love how it shows the intricate v-tail movements made during the flight.
I love that crazy little plane!
omg man, you are killin it with these camera setups!
Can't quite do what you are doing with your Ercoupe in Xplane12 but I think I had more fun making my video!

I believe that is called crossing the controls which allows for a rapid descent without losing lift...
