Actual real honesty, humility, and passion based drive to succeed, more PLEASE!?! Keep up the great work, I can't wait to see your "conservatively more power" definition in action! You've inspired this U.S. Army Infantry Veteran to start down the path to getting my P.P.L. Thank you for being you and creating positive ripples in the world!
@@SteveHenry Have you ever considered wing improvements beyond your field state of the art with it's & slats &flaps.. I'm sure you guys are always looking for that edge.. while you're building wings.. look at.. The Science Behind Effect of Tubercles The tubercle effect is a phenomenon in which tubercles, or large raised bumps on the leading edge of a wing, blade, or sail increase its aerodynamic or hydrodynamic performance. Research on this topic was inspired by the work of marine biologists on the behavior of humpback whales. Despite their large size, these whales are agile and are able to perform rolls and loops underwater.[5] Research on humpback whales indicated that the presence of these tubercles on the leading edge of whale fins reduced stall and increased lift, while reducing noise in the post-stall regime.[5] Researchers were motivated by these positive results to apply these concepts to aircraft wings as well as industrial and wind turbines.
Great video, very instructive. Sara's chuckling behind the camera is precious to hear! Hope you won't be submerged by a ton of Sharpies soon !!! lol Thanks again for this great video!
Ever experimented with S2 glass tubing and structures for your pedals and stick mixer, and seat frame? S2 glass has properties similar to steel but quite a bit lighter and not conductive. CF would be even stronger and lighter, but far more attention to isolating CF to metal contact is essential when moisture can get there and bridge the materials.
No I’ve never tried that, I really do not like working with fiberglass though. I never really have done carbon fiber but I can’t imagine it being any more fun than fiberglass.
Looking forward to seeing more of this process! One thing I'm curious about, which the video can't convey, is what the noise levels are like inside the aircraft - especially at different speeds and power settings. Is there anything which makes a big difference in making the noise more bearable, other than an active noise cancelling headset?
A good headset is definitely worth the money. And so it’s a good muffler for any kind of extended flying. I don’t like a muffler when I’m racing but otherwise I like a nice big quiet muffler.

Thank you for the nice comment! -Sara
Steve, nice to see you at work on your new aircraft. Your ideas are ingenious.
Thank you 😊
Thanks for the update Steve and Sarah.
Thanks for watching!

Thanks again for this great video!
Thank you! We are going to have fun with this 😊 -Sara
Following from Minnesota!!
Thank you! -Sara
This is great! I’ll be right behind you on the build . In a month or so . Can’t wait
Yes! Hopefully our videos can help you out some -Sara
Please continue the build series !!
That’s our plan! Thanks for watching -Sara
And yet another I went through the first ground school at the new Nampa Terminal in 89-90 under CFI Bob Henry ? He was a great instr.
Very cool
All about the build series.
Thank you! -Sara
From one Steve to another, thanks man!
Hi Steve! Thank you 😊
Keep it light Steve build it exactly how you want to.😀
Yes! 😊😁
Now I know Katie and I will be bringing some Sharpies to Oshkosh next summer
very informative.
threat camera work !
Thanks 😊
Thank you for everything. I am very excited. I am very like. 👏👏👏
I love watching you. Because this is my dream. maybe one day…… ☺️
Hopefully one day! Thanks for watching -Sara

Going back to the standard tail I see
Yeah..
Steve,,where are you getting your Hysol EA 9460. I can`t find any one that has it in stock.
All I have so far is just what came with my kit.
@@SteveHenry Ok, thanks.
Ahh, cool 😎👍..!
Thank you!
Steve just as a thought for the passenger control stick. Make it removable. That’s what I have done with the control sticks on my Bearhawk controls.
It is easy to just remove the stick itself as long as I put the complete control mixer in. That’s probably what I will wind up doing.
hey if you make enough good videos i can throw my build manual away and might save myself a couple months on my build 😂.
😁
Very Gas Monkey Garage, but for aircraft. Lol. :)
