      most jets are not able to vertical climb a long time they are totally the reverse of rockets ... those are good for vertical climbing, there Engine are made for it ... plane rely on there wings ... to be Carburant/time efficient so there engine (turbojet) are not efficient for vertical climb

      it's just the engine in my opinion.... mostly the aerodynamics are irelavant at speed just like early jets... he just needs the bare minimum lift with as low drag as possible and then if you use a bigger engine you get faster.... it's more like a rocket than an aeroplane in some ways, the wings just get it into the air

    I'm happy this holds the record. Most beautiful RC aircraft I've seen, and certainly one of the most elegantly designed of any aircraft, RC or full-scale. You and Cristoph have much to feel proud of! What was the design process like? Did many full-scale aircraft (or aspects of them) serve as inspirations, or was it purely a matter of aerodynamics/engineering from scratch?
    Both my wife and I are also very happy that the world's fastest/scariest RC plane is a vibrant fuschia pink. :D Is it primarily for visibility? Plus I am extra impressed at the belly landings/scuffed paint. This aircraft clearly does not need to be perfect or pristine to be able to do insane things.

    • @TheGhostflier

      It is a improved version of the old plane. The design was entirely based for aerodynamics and effiency.
      Yes, the day light magenta on top is the best color I have ever seen. So at any time of the flight I see either the magenta on top or black or day light green on the bottom side.

    I agree with other commentors that flying using a forward looking camera would be nice to extend the range beyond line of sight. However, in the event of any lag in the video stream for even a small fraction of a second could be fatal. All you need then is an on board autopilot flight control system with radar and a gyro inertial nav system to take control in the event of a video stream hiccup.
    But seriously, that's a beautiful work of art-science. Now if you could scale it up enough to carry one 175 lb person...🤔

    Thank you for making this video. It is spectacular in the extreme. I have recently got back into model aircraft after a 35 year break, and just started RC. I'm curious as to the air frame materials you used? It would be fun to make a much slower, scaled down version using a EDF setup.
    Brilliant work - it must have been a long time in the design, and build!

    • @TheGhostflier
      @TheGhostflier  7 лет назад +2

      Welcome.
      Fiberglas and carbon fiber, also balsa wood as sandwich material and epoxy resin for sure.
      I don´t if EDF would work. if the inlet needs to suck the air from above. Might work better with high angels of attack if up side down.

    Wow, very intriguing project. I envy you as the US has a speed restriction below 10,000 ft for both full scale and RC aircraft. An FPV flight would be an adrenaline rush with the right equipment. What have you determined the slight wobble to be? Video is a great diagnostic tool.

    the missing paint on the fins is that airflow abrasion? Also noticed a little wobble on yaw, i think that means you could lose some of the fin area, less drag go faster :-)

    Isn't there a better place to put the camera, guys? You can barely even see the ground, because it's mostly blocked by the front of the jet.

    • @markotik75
      @markotik75 6 лет назад +1

      HowlingMoonCinemas I was thinking that too but watched the other video and noticed it just lands flat so it needs to be on top- plus it needs to be low down for least drag and in the middle means it can see forwards and backwards from the same same camera mount. I would guess this is pretty much the only viable place for it. ( I think...)
      Would be really cool to have the camera built into the nose though, maybe behind a mounded plexiglass nosecone?

    • @user-td1zo3tv9p

      Perhaps some method of fiber optics to send views from multiple locations and be collated for simultaneously viewing? Also, the individual lenses could be mounted behind a clear and aerodynamic surface to prevent damage, maintain streamlining and give multiple viewing options.

      Just follow the link in the description. Speed was meassured with two high speed cameras 1000fpm with a distance of 200 meters. It is extremely precise and shows ground speed only.

    • @EnglishTurbines
      @EnglishTurbines 6 лет назад

      I dont doubt how you have measured the speed....but its a question about which part of the flight you recorded...Using an onboard GPS gives a constant speed readout for the ENTIRE flight, not just a small part of it.

    Absolutely incredible. Thank you so much for putting the camera on the plane, it is a real pleasure for us to watch! I currently have the unofficial fastest FPV plane in the world (gps fround speed 249mph), recognised on this forum: fpvlab.com/forums/showthread.php?20039-Personal-Bests-V5-(LEADERBOARDS). It really would not be a great weight or size expense to equip your plane with FPV, It may not be sensible to fly it via FPV, but the overlayed data on an OSD on the video would be great to see. I have found that my planes reach a much greater 'peak' speed at some moment during the flight, than is measured when trying to get through timing gates. I would think your plane is over 800kmh at some points. Best regards. Rupert.
