I think it would be helpful to the community, and interesting if you made a video or series documenting the specific methods of CAD Modeling used by flight test when developing new designs. Also I've been watching flitetest for almost 4 years, and its amazing that you've almost reached 2 million subs, keep up the great work!

    i made a glider out of cheap styrofoam plates that is shaped like a Romulan Warbird. Id love to see what it does with a motor on it. Maybe you guys could take that idea and run with it. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it glides. If the wind hits it, the craft flips around a bit but then it automatically rights itself as soon as the gust is over, so far it has always landed perfectly. Even when i tossed off the roof of our apartment complex.

      My memory claims I've seen a a clip where they replace the skin on an airplanes wing with duct tape, and that it actually flew. But it also tries to tell me it was done by the MythBusters. However no search I've tried has turned up anything like that. The closest I got was an episode where they skin a portion of the fuselage of an ultralight using duct tape. It flew, but it was looking pretty scary. The duct tape "skin" was somewhat elastic and was flopping wildly in the airflow.
      So either my memory is totally unreliable or I've just failed to find the correct clip. Unfortunately I'm pretty the correct answer is option A...

      Something like a multiplex easy star, bixler or similar is the best to start with imho. Motor in the back so it will take a hit, and they almost fly themselves. Also good glide slope and non agressive stalls. Plus you can start with rudder + elevator only and then add the ailerons when you advance.

      just buy or build one of the simpler flight test kits, super simple to build and most importantly repair. I'd say go with two channel (rudder and elevator) dihedral top wing aircraft(they have really stable flight charastiritics) They're really easy to fly and won't overwhelm you at first. However if you have absolutely no experience flying or don't even have a buddy who could help you start flying, start off flying in the simulator, like real flight or something. Make sure you either connect your transmitter or a cheap simulator transmitter so that you know what flying with sticks feels like

      I really like the safe features of the Horizon Sport Cub S 2. I highly recommend it for a first purchase. Comes with everything you need.
      I bought the Horizon Champ first (about $80 on sale). I figured it was inexpensive enough that if I crash I wouldn't be too broken hearted. I have learned a lot and repaired and modified it a lot. (made the engine cowling removable, added an aluminum brace inside the wing foam, tape for the battery). No ailerons though. Was a little bit of a learning curve going from the rudder on the right stick for the Champ to the rudder on the left (and aileron on right) with the Sport Cub S 2. One of the reasons I kinda wish I just got the Sport Cub S 2 first. But I do love the Champ for it's simplicity (it can't handle the wind very well).
      My wife bought me the Horizon Sport Cub S 2 during black Friday for like $75. Super deal, normally $139.99. I almost wish I started with this one. The safe mode saves me from so much, and really helps in the wind. It does drain the battery faster (the Champ battery never ran out on me, I got bored or crashed before it ever ran out). Spare battery. Was like $6-8. Works on both the planes. Both planes come with all you need to fly.

      Maybe Nylon!? or that comes under plastic, how about the fact we can make a electric plane that uses this, high drag and high lift concept and used for tourism!?

    Double the size and add Kitfox-style ailerons(trailing edge mounted). I'ld cover the bottom of the wing, too. Looks Great!

    Yes! I wanna see how big you can get it! Now I have to build one too!!!
    (almost done with my giant Corsair. The wing gave me lotsa grief since Noah wasn’t completely truthful about its design!)

    I had a job one time, back in the sixtys, flying damaged airplanes to a repair shop in Michigan, from all over, I used a lot of duct tape, pluging holes & taping landing gear down etc, we called it Hundred Mile an Hour Tape, cuz it was good for about HMPH. I never had it come lose or an accident, I just flew slow enough to stay in the air.

  • @fabonline9389
    @fabonline9389 4 года назад

    Now that you've built the 1/4 sized version, It's time to build the next demolition plane out of this. I think it would hold up well to mid-air strikes and maybe you could make the surface sticky so you could collect the planes that ran into you?

  • @MatthewJBRO

    You could probably use more ribs in the wings and run the tape parallel to the trailing edge and get a smoother airfoil. Also, starting the tape on the trailing edge of the wing and overlapping the previous strip slightly, instead of running the tape like Josh did, will possibly increase the aerodynamic performance while decreasing the overall weight.

    Bigger, bigger than that, is always bettur! I was also hoping for a Big Stuka vs the manned battleship with an airsoft fully auto for a cannon!

    Reflective floor marker tape might make for a good dusk flight show as you have your own airspace to use guys .

    Hey FliteTest, its winter here in Ohio, its time to make an rc Snowmobile fly and still be able to go through the snow. GL would be amazing to see.

    I'd like to see you do something like this again but with a transparent material, kind of like an invisible plane.

    Hello Fresh box plane. Use dry pasta noodles for struts and the packaging for wing canvas.
