0:00 when you’re bored and you’re wearing a jacket with a zipper
XD I laughed at loud lol I wonder if that's actually what it was
That's it, I'm doing it. All I needed was a tiny little push. Thanks T!
Yes!! Join the club. :D
Tucker Gott I love mine as well!!
Do you recall the optimal jet nozzle diameter?
Me Too Kyle , Gotta do it now for sure
@Kyle O'Glee please make a step by step video on how you make it. With a list of parts too please.... Thank you!
An important factor in how a 2 stroke engine runs is the pressure in the exhaust system. Injecting cool oil into the exhaust changes the exhaust's internal temp and pressure. The noticeable effect is the immediate change in RPMs (and of course, the awesome thick smoke). At higher RPMs, the pressure in the exhaust increases to the point where some of the exhaust gasses are pushed back into the engine, combined with the new fuel/air mixture coming in from the carb, and re-burned in the combustion chamber. So, not all of the baby oil is being flashed into white smoke by the high exhaust temp. Some is burning inside the engine. It's doubtful that this would be very harmful to the engine. 20 ounces in one minute is a lot of oil, but only a percentage of that makes it into the combustion chamber.
They could possibly find a "sweet spot" far enough from the wet band to prevent reversion of the oil into the cylinder, but still hot enough to smoke. It wouldn't prevent temperature induced pressure change, but may help with baby oil contamination in the cylinder. For those who want a basic visual here is a link upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/52/Arbeitsweise_Zweitakt.gif
Its also most likely causing a lean condition at partial throttle because of how he describes the raise in the RPM . 2 strokes are quite picky when it comes to exhaust modifications and as you know the expansion chamber is critical. The scavenging effect is tied directly to moving the air/fuel mix through the transfer ports.
I hate to be the safety Nazi but this is definitely not something to just blindly go and do. It could easily lead to fouling a spark plug or something worse like a engine seizure in flight.
Definitely not something you want to try for the first time in the air etc.
@@Two-StrokeLife I agree.. the temp at the end of the header pipe is probably just as hot as it is in the middle of the pipe..move the fitting towards the end of the exhaust..
You guys are really geeking it out in this thread. Even though I didn’t understand anything, I read it all.
I can tell you're the fun guy at the party!
I can hear your RPMs go down when you hit the smoke....never noticed it instill you talked about it in the video.
Also very informative video Tucker....good job and safe flying!!!!
I have looked at videos and talking and YOU are only trustable one ever I have seen now. Thanked you fore showing yours stuff
Tucker, when drilling exhaust pipes or thin sheet metal don't use normal drill bits use a Unibit stepped bit. They prevent break through grabbing, rough edges and possible pipe damage.
That chem-trail joke.. about killed me. ROFL
Going to install the smoke system on my New Fenix now, thanks Tucker for the easy descriptions !
I think it might be a good idea to experiment on the MT-07 now... delicious baby oil smoke system behind the motorbike!
You are freaking awesome Tucker I love all your videos keep doing it keep doing it keep doing it keep doing it
Over here in the uk you use to be able to get strawberry sented 2 stroke oil, if you just got the scent and added it to your baby oil, you could do scented smoke!!!
Going back through your tip vortices, that was awesome 😄
Tucker, try vegetable glycerin, its pure, clean and smokes like HELL!! Thats what vapers use to produce huge clouds. They also use it in night clubs and so on
Does it get the chase cam oily?
Ur killing the atmosphere dude
The smoke adds a lot. At one point it looked like a heart way up in the sky.
When you shoot oil before expansion chamber to your exhaust it changes characteristics because that chamber is where 2 stroke makes that little extra power, try to stick it after chamber in place where it comes to final diameter of your pipe, exhaust gases there are bit cooler and has much higher velocity. Also you should try diesel fuel, when you use oil it will eventually flood your silencer so it will be soaked with unburnt oil.
Be sure your baby oil is "Paraffin Based". Plant based may build up in your exhaust. I looked at the data sheet for the smoke sold from aircraft spruce for OVER $50 per gallon and noted the base is paraffin oil.
I wanna do it! Awesome shot at 10:11 Smoke looks so sick!
was waiting to learn about your smoke system. I am almost complete with installing smoke system on my PPG. I'm using waste vegetable oil. sky smells like french fries. hahaha. I totally enjoy your videos Tucker!!
No way! I've always wondered if waste frying oil would work. Is the smoke nice and thick?
the chase cam is dope
Thanks for the learn bro.
Rock on!!
I'd add that 2 strokes are quite picky when it comes to exhaust modifications. The shape of the expansion chamber affects the engines tuning and spraying oil in it does a lot more on a 2 stroke than what it would to a 4 stroke engine.2 strokes use the scavenging effect of the exhaust so prolonged use could cause some serious issues. Especially if it makes it run lean. Chances are that's why Tucker's increased RPM at partial throttle. If he ran it too long at that load it could lead to a seizure or scored piston etc and that's why he uses it in bursts most of the time.
I'd recommend testing it and checking to be sure it's not running too lean before going crazy with it. Luckily for Tucker it sounds like it causes it to run too rich at wide open throttle.
Exactly, there are definitely risks to doing this. I will add, however, that I have tested it on a full 1 minute 15 second burst with no issues. :)
@@TuckerGott thanks for the reply and sorry to be the "safety freak" . But I wanted to put it out there.
Also thanks for showing the nice side of Jersey and if you're ever down the southern end hit me up. I fly out of Cape May and have a big tire Maule M4. It's not the flying cowboys by any stretch but nonetheless there's some cool sandbars to play at during low tide.
Yep - piping is everything in a 2-stroke. You can make docile engines become fire breathing monsters that will just about dislocate your shoulders with acceleration, on snowmobiles, or multi-cylinder motorcycles, with the right pipes and jetting to match. 👍
Have you ever debated adding smoke/oil dye to the baby oil you are using? If it is a quirky color people won't think you are crashing, plus it looks amazing!!
I have no idea if it would work but could you add food coloring to the oil to make colored smoke ? could be a fun little experiment if it doesn't mess up the pump
It amazes me you have so much trust in a fabric wing! Does it ever freak you out?
This takes vaping to the next level! So sick!
Tucker have you ever came down to fast and hit the ground/ face planted with the motor on your back? is that uncommon?
Face plants are uncommon. More often pilots slip or just forget to properly run out, resulting in a butt land
It happens. Not to me....

It may not be legal. But just for shits and grins. Try using automatic transmission fluid. Back in the seventies, we used it in our hot rods the same way you use mineral oil. It makes tons of smoke.
@tuckergott you should get all the guys together that have smoke systems and try to do some sky typing.
any chance of a view and size of your smoke injector jet???? looks awesome effect.
tucker would vegetable glycerine work the same stuff they use in vape liquid or even vape liquid might work get a flavoured one that would smell real nice too then
Have you ever tried adding food coloring to make different colors to the smoke?
Hey Tucker,
Great ideas!! If all I can get is the kind with babies, do you think it'll still be fun?
I think it should probably work. 🤣
You should try COLORED smoke on your paramotor!!!
Hey Tucker, we pumped diesel in our exhaust for a fat smoke curtain, maybe you should try it once!
air shows are always full of mosquitoes or they are when I'm there so I would suggest a little citronella oil mixed in there. so if you're going to make smoke you really should use either a stainless exhaust or titanium because of the corrosive effects that soot has on steel
U deserve million million views
Hi Tucker great one and really fun, Could you give us more details on the exhaust injector installation ? and where you find the goods ?
All the best
Finally I’m glad other people wanted this too
Wow, thanks for the advice!
Hi , is this vittarozi moster 185 ? How do you avoid heat shield when making a hole ?
We have dollar tree and 99c stores if you have those in your state they sell baby oil
you can also use diesel fuel which is extra cheap
I wonder if you could mix the baby oil with some dye to create coloured smoke? I know the Red Arrows use some dye with diesel but the exhaust temps are probably 10x higher.
Tucker, have you compared DJ fog juice to baby oil? Loved the vortex shot! Thanks for the video.
I'm pretty sure the reason it messes with engine performance is that some of the baby oil sneaks into the cylinder right before the power-stroke and becomes part of the fuel mixture. Not sure if it has any other implications. I mean, two-strokes like some oil in their fuel anyways... But maybe not lavender and aloe :P
There a back stroke in the pipe so it injects a air/fuel mixture that goes into the header then back up through the exhaust port and combusting. So in theory your sucking baby oil back into the cylinder even a small amount would definitely effect performance.
Hi.. what is the smoke mix formula?? Tnkz
FIRST: PRAISE: Great cinematography Tucker!
SECOND: QUESTION? Would it be possible to add color to the smoke? Maybe by adding a bottle of food coloring dye? Just curious.
THIRD: REQUEST: How about some sky writing in smoke? Can you write "Jaclyn" without crashing?
Is it possible to put coloring into your smoke oil so you have a colored smoke trail
Ever tried adding wheels
Nice one! But aren't you afraid that the chasecam gets into the prop in a bad situation?
SMOKE IT UPPPPP
Paramotorist:
It's a smoke system
Cons theorist:
CHEM TRAIL
Have you done any research for yourself independently? You do understand that chem trails is a well documented thing that has been applied to our skies for many decades now. It Is Not A Theory, it is fact that chemicals and metals are sprayed into our atmosphere sometimes creating "contrails", again this is admitted science. Look up how many tons of Silver Iodide has been intentionally sprayed into the atmosphere to manipulate clouds/weather? Isn't it like 10's of thousands of tons? This weather manipulation is under the guise of many names and hidden from us in plain sight (only recently have grade school textbooks added con-trails to the cloud sections of books, it is insane).
Cosmic full disclosure. The law of One. ✌
Your exhaust a shaped that way being bigger in the middle and smaller on the ends because it acts as somewhat of a turbocharger. So when you add oil it will get in your combination chamber. These also alternative smoke machines that are less invasive
Then please let present some of these less invasive smoke machines. Can you list some examples?
@@TheTropicalViking they have ones that don't go into your exhaust. Think of them like a vape with a fan. They have an atomizer and ignite own fluid. it's all pretty self-contained. If you've ever seen a thermal fogger it's pretty much that but smaller
I commend you for using the baby free baby oil haha
Outstanding!👍👍👍
what if you went to the smoke shop and bought some cheap vapor oil with a high vg content?(High vg smoke =big clouds)mix with baby oil and Lay out some chocolate smoke, or cafe latte? eh?
I would def like to watch u in jersey sometime. I’m saving up for one and I would like to come check it out firsthand sometime. I’m not far away. In fact I might have seen u or someone else while I was on 95 south the other day
Where can I find the part used for the exhaust that’s not brass and won’t break mentioned @ 2:33~ ? I have rivnuts just can’t find the other piece.
Wouldn't vegetable glycerine work? As that is a lot cheaper. I'm from the uk and it's only £10 for 5L..
Can you add in food coloring or something to give you colored smoke?
Your videos are super motivational! I really want to try this now. I am at the "It's so cool!" stage. I'm retired military with very fixed income. I have worked fighters, attack planes and helicopters as a mechanic since I was 17. There are aircraft that are far easier to repair, maintain than others and are more reliable. The A-10, for instance, was super easy to fix and very reliable if you didn't baby it or ignore it. Can you recommend a paramotor that falls into that description? I would be more interested in cross country flying once I get comfortable with gear and ability. Any advice would be awesome! Thanks!
The oil/smoke is changing the resonance of the exhaust. This effects the way a two stroke runs.
Could you try going to a different country or island?
Is there any way with your system to do colored smoke?
WHY NO PARTS LIST IN THE DESCRIPTION
Tucker. Try it with diesel. I use diesel for years now. Works great. Cheap. Maybe a little less smoke. But more then ok...
If you wanted more smoke.. is it an option to install 2 systems or.. is that tecnicle imposible.. like killing or damage to your engien??
Tucker buddy, that pipe looks awfully close to the exhaust. What type of pipe are you using? I'm trying to put together a smoke system but I'm worried the heat from the exhaust will melt a rubber pipe
Talk about the bike one day.. looks like an fz07
You wing is so fast at take off, you perform awesome maneuvers straight away! What wing are you flying and how is it trimmed for that?
Have you tried mineral oil or the type they use in smoke machines? Not sure if cheaper, but might work better.
Bless you
Chem trails!! LOL!!!
i Turned post notifications on
great video , what is the name of the camera mount that hangs at the back and where can i get it
Thats sick. I wana try that. Anyone know what the song is?
Where's Jaclyn ? nice video by the way [thumbs up]
I'm checking on smoke colorant.
How can you make the smoke a different colour? Food colouring? Black smoke would look cool too!
I think the smoke is creating more back pressure in the exhaust, because of the change in volume of the oil when it evaporate
So what's the flow rate of that pump? That's gotta be like a 400 gph to move 20oz that fast, I'm sure the Venturi effect from the exhaust gasses probably pull it in faster as well.
20 oz/75sec * 1gal/128 oz * 3600secs/1 hr = 7.5 GPH .... You're way off. :)
@@JamesCampbellPPG lol yeah I am lol. I guess I'm comparing 2 different things in my head, and not accounting for loss of 3/4 in line at length
Okay. You need to do this but write in the sky “Surrender Dorothy” 😂😂
Please excuse my ignorance, but I'm curious. Instead of drilling a hole in the wall of your exhaust, why not spray a thin mist into the tip? Similar to what jet based aerobatic teams often do.
Obviously, that's a jet exhaust versus a little 2 or 4 stroke, but is it hot enough to smoke baby oil or commercial smoke oils used in theatrical hazers etc?
What kind of 2 stroke oil do you use?
That was some top gun shit there going thru the smoke 💨 just sayin
if someone else layed down wing over smoke think u could copy flight path? smoke follow the leader
That's pretty badass and easy
A cheap way to make ALOT of smoke using about 1/4 of what you use now, is to run ATF (automatic transmission fluid). You'll send treehuggers into an angry frenzy, but you'll have smoke the likes of which you've never seen before. 😁😁😁
If you add Breakfluid to the ATF (2 desiliter pr liter off ATF) you will get a "Thicker" smoke and it last longer. We did it on Leopard Tanks here in Norway :-)
Smokenanigans!
God bless you
hey Tucker just gott my shirts in the mail...I'm wearing my Vitruvian " Paramotor" Man shirt right now! Very comfortable...Just had a thought...you could get a job where you spray for Mosquito's with the smoke system if the RUclips thing dries up!!! LOL
That would be awesome if it was legal lol
@Ivan Jakanov Not via ultralight aircraft. Read FAR 103.
The engine rpm probably dips because your blocking some exhaust flow with the baby oil added in
Love it man! Stay Rad!
I'm glad you warned the viewers about the baby oil that's made with real babies, Tucker.
can you colour it red and blue?
Does your PPG even VAPE Bro? That smoke is saaweeeet!
