  • What does a pulsejet-powered Long-EZ ARF look like? Well it looks like this (at least for now).
    Will it fly?
    That's the big question -- you'll just have to wait for part 2 to find out.

    I find it rather interesting. That idea is what almost 100 years old now. V2 She can be cranky starting her up. I agree with Joshua. I think the concept is fantastic. great work.

    VERY good information, thank you! I have always loved the canard designs, but never built one because I was familiar with this issue. Now I know how to solve it! Thanks again :)

    thnat for the explanation,today remove the weak weld knot on the push rod linkage and replace it with MIG TYPE wire welding,and now looks more like real strong,i"ll continue with the kit building prosess and may post it when test fly it,thanks for all tips

    Let me just say this is the first RC plane that has caught my imagination and got me daydreaming about one. I have aiways admired the lines of the long easy, but aiways thought that the pusher prop didn't fit the advanced futurestic look but the pulse jet seems apropreate and the flight charactoristicsseem vary good with changes to angle of attach on the connard. hope you sell a ton of them.

    Thanks Bruce, Your infomation on the Carnard angle was very useful and have help save me a good plane. Nice to see a fellow KIWI flying the long EZ as well. I'm in Thailand though, Here you can pretty much fly any day. and Pretty much anywhere with out getting arrest, There are more than 10 official RC air field in Bangkok anyway. There are a few KIWI blokes in Bangkok flying as well :)

    I have enjoyed your channel for a while and I found the one about misinformation so relevant. By now it should have filtered to your part of the world about the Drone incident at Gatwick airport, It started with a suspect drone ( two EasyJet's diverted), but by the time it worked its way around the world it was a drone crash with a BA flight ( American news ). I always respect the rules and have in the past informed the police were I will be. this sort of scar mongering is very worrying. Keep up the great work you do , Thanks John

    I have this plane. I have experienced the nasty stall you talk about. Please tell me how much positive incidence on the canard I need. I also thought about changing the main wing to less positive incidence because the canard is already epoxied in.

    Hi Love ya vids. You mention that you built the pulse jet I have a good mate who is very into different engines and good with machines he has his own lathe and mill. would you be able to show us how to make one of these by any chance?? please cheers
    Ps still hope to get to your field and meet you one day

    this thing is a micro rc v-1 flying bomb! haha, i first saw your pulsejets in the form of the gokart a few years ago, most impressive sir, how do you plan to get the fuel from the tank to the engine, some kind of pressurised tank?

  • @Thinkflite
    @Thinkflite 15 лет назад

    can these engines have throttles because im only 15 i fly rc planes at my local club and want a jet but as you said turbines are way two expensive and i always use the throllte so could you use a throtlle on these engines ps could you acutually classifie one of these engines as a real jet

    how do these engines deal with alcohol as the fuel source?

    • @theq4602
      @theq4602 6 лет назад

      Alcohol should be fine on models that normally could take gasoline. Just make sure you keep it away from moisture sources so that water cannot get into it and impede performance.

  • @The_Conspiracy_Analyst
    @The_Conspiracy_Analyst 9 месяцев назад

    I wonder why we don't see pulsejets in use more in Ukraine. Seems like the cheapest form of propulsion, and high performance. They'd be especially cheap if you had a small metalworking shop cranking out parts. You could crank out hundreds or thousands of them very easily and cheaply.

    • @xjet
      @xjet  9 месяцев назад

      I have seen some attempts to use them in the Ukraine conflict but although pulsejets look very simple there's a lot of detail that's not obvious so some experience is required to design, build and operate them. They would be a very good short/medium range option for low-cost ordinance. I built my own over two decades ago (and got into a lot of trouble for doing so): www.aljazeera.com/news/2003/6/5/new-zealander-builds-missile-in-backyard
