Chrome paint the top of the wings and call it the "Silver-back."
stilldking that was so bad! wish i would have thought of it
Some drunk guy on side of road just gave up drinking
SLAM BOY LOL, 😂🤣😁
XD
now he lives in a van down by the river.
lol
I feel bad for the people who didn't have booze to blame. They just think they've gone crazy.
Good ol' Coco! Cutest pilot in the FT family!
Alex and Coco are so pure
I love the positivity, creativity, attention to science and safety while still having fun. Y'all are fantastic educators and role models and I'm glad I found this channel!
Coco is a great pilot, also forgot to say Congrats to the Zvada family
Is Coco the new Buster from Mythbusters?
5:08 "unless josh had anything to do with it" HAAAAAAA!!!! that legit made me wheeze
Coco is the new FT Intern. We need to see him in more builds.
Andres reminds me so much of Peter -- crazy levels of innovation and execution. True pioneers in the RC field. I'm so glad Flite Test exists to help cultivate these brilliant people and allow them to let their creativity run free and boundless.
I love how y'all are always laughing. Your enthusiasm is contagious and your love of the hobby is admirable. Btw. Thanks for putting me on to Horizon Hobby. I've just attained Pro Status with them and have grown significantly in the hobby through you and them. I thank you, my credit card company thanks you.
Capn Pete love you dude! Your success is well deserved! Keep going! - Alex
Don't understand the trolls who thumbs down these videos. What is it you want? Are you that unhappy 😡 in your life that the only way you feel good is to tear someone else down?
Are we going to see Coco The Aviator t-shirts now :-)
I'd buy that..lol
Stol competition. 1/4 scale Cubs. Standardized engines. Wing mods only. Categories: Takeoff. Landing. Slow speed handling. Top speed. High speed handling.
Would love to see something like this on your channel.
The rigger boat hull went on to set prop boat speed and et records in actual drag boat racing. Problem child and others. Rc is so exciting for R&D. Love the channel.
Alex, I'm with you. Coco is totes adorbs.
That is great you have young aircraft designers working for you. God Bless
Yea, no kidding, I saw the Gorilla smile at the end too. Maybe some of us have a good imagination? Anyways, well done. And the sound of it coming into land, very realistic.
The two people that disliked this video probably thought that this was animal cruelty 😂
Roboto nice profile picture who’s ur favorite joker
Probably lol
This sort of thing reminds me of that one aviation story I heard a while back that was about the first test pilots for the first US fighter jets I just looked it up to get the written version on a website called WeAreTheMighty so I'll just leave the story pasted here:
In 1942, Bell aircraft was developing its P-59 Airacomet, the first jet engine fighter designed by the United States. And although it never saw action, it was an important step in the development of U.S. air power.
It was also a top-secret project at the time. The British had a jet fighter airframe in development since 1941 as did the Germans.
It was so secret, in fact, that when the P-59 was taxiing, airmen put a fake wooden propeller on her nose so onlookers wouldn't notice anything odd about the aircraft.
In the air, however, it was a different story. Pilots flying the usual piston-driven aviation engine would report back to base with sightings of a fast-moving plane without a propeller. They also said the plane was flown by a "gorilla, wearing a derby hat, waving a stogie at them."
The Chief test pilot for Bell Aircraft was Jack Woolams. By the time Bell was testing its P-59 design, Woolams had already served 18 months in the Army Air Corps. He was the man behind the gorilla mask.
Other pilots who were exposed to Woolams' prank were convinced by Air Force psychologists that they hadn't really seen the gorilla flying the plane, "because everyone knows you can't fly without a propeller."
Thought you guys might enjoy hearing that story because this video reminded me a bit of it.
Just can't stop loving you guys (new things all the time)
I think coco started smiling and the end. Kinda creepy. Lol. Great job guys!
Stephens character deserves a segment of its own.. I propose a "Stephens Crazy Flier " or "Stephens Will It Fly" once each month where he designs his own crazy machine or takes a subscribers idea and turns it into reality.
I love how you make Andres do everything XD You guys are like in your videos "so were gonna have Andres ____________" LOL
Coco should be the official test pilot for Flite test
That was awesome. I really wish you guys would re-visit the cosy-coupe or whatever it was called. All it needed was a strut between the wings to stop them from folding up and it would have flown a whole lot better.
Josh looks like half the man he used to be....with twice as much hair :-)
Lovin it x
That 360 cam is amazing! you guys should put in in a model cockpit!
Good job all, that was so funny, but that aircraft flew really well. It was amazing. Next thing you know, you will have KOKO ejecting himself and floating down on a parachute! Oh no! Should I have said that? rofl.. Happy Flying
GrampaKenCanada I subbed to u will u sub to ms
It's awesome..... Really amazing flight with Coco
Love the full metal jacket reference at 4:28
Josh is like the dad of the group. He placates the children with silly stuff.
This is awesome, felt like old school days of flight test!!!
“You made my monkey fly” lol awesome. I had a stuffed monkey too
There is no part of this video that i would like to skip, keep doing cool things!!!
Hey guys, Mark here, I have been binge watching your channel for a couple of days now and this video finally pushed me over the top (I had a stuffed monkey as a kid too Alex), so I finally subscribed. You guys are infectious with your enthusiasm and your attitude is super inviting (In your minds you must still be 10yrs old, am I right?). You've quickly become one of my favorite channels and I will tell you that I'm picky about what I watch. For an Indiana farm boy who grow up flying and losing planes and rockets in the corn feilds, this brings it all back home for me. I love to tinker with stuff and I have what believe is a God given love of all things that fly. (BTW, you should see what's hanging up in my garage.)
Not surprisingly, I am a career aeronautical engineer from a great aero school (Hail Purdue!) with a large aerospace company in Seattle (I love my job).
Love your channel and your spirit. Keep up the good work guys!
Congrats big daddy!
Mark Cardinal hi son
That was a very nice landing Josh.
AWSOME!!!!!! MORE BIG PROJECTS!!
Way awesome , that thing looks sick and I love it !
Coco just flew his first solo, well done Coco, next up, Private Pilots License lol
oh... finally! at the little tikes car you had to use the gorrila!
Awesome guys! always love watching flite test!
Koko sat that bird down like a full beverage. Frickin ape straight greased it.
This was just such a hearty vid. Great work guys, I was smiling the whole time!
The streamers are a good showing of the wing vortices while flying @12:01
This was the funniest thing I've ever seen
Best. Diy. Ever. Also congratulations on the newborn Alex
Josh has been visiting the hair doctor?? He's growing hair now! Lol
Make it a push/pull like Cessna Skymaster
We need more coco flights!
That was beautiful
That's awesome! Reminds me a lot of the Fowl Flyer way back when!
You guys rock! Keep up the amazing work!
I bet everyone driving down 77 were like WTF!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh, I’m glad you used this again, the ultralight is one of my favorite builds so far! I love the flaps with the ailerons. Flaperons, hope it spelled I right. Also, Ultralights are my favorite type of aircraft! :D
I think someone needs to address the "Gorilla" in the room and make CoCo the Flite Test mascot.
You should add a windscreen in front of Coco and give him a moving throttle as well! ;)
Hell yeah that was awesome! Great job guys!
You guys are AWESOME!!!! By far, my favorite rc channel!! I could watch you guys all day!! I'm planning on buying one of your kits and everything else I need from your store.. I was big into the rc plane hobby years ago but had to give it up due to lack of funds and hard times... your foam board kits are going to allow me to get back into the hobby I loved so much with minimal funds!! Keep up the amazing work!! I hope to meet you guys someday and get to watch you all fly in person!!!!
Coco crazy! That was great! Congrats guys! Another viral....
Every once in a while,someone takes my ideas seriously.
1) Take a model plane, build it into a RC plane, the smaller the better.
2) Build a plane using a lawn mower engine.
3) instead of mounting props directly to the engines (motors), use cables, like how the speedometer works in a car, or the dremel flex shaft. That way, you don't have to mount the motors in the same location as the props. You can mount the motor in a remote location using the cable to route through small passageways to connect the props. You may find all kinds of uses for this. I would like to see how it works.
7:53 COCO'S FLYING!!! 😂🤣😂
I have the same monkey! Had him since i was about 3.
Nathan Callahan no way! They need to meet each other! I thought Coco was the last of his kind!
Only two of them left? Let’s hope they are the opposite gender.
Jason Stason haha and give bixler the baby so he will have to like it
That was awesome!!!
That was so awesome. You guys keep coming up with some amazing ideas. It's fun to watch from all camera angles!
I find it really interesting how after chopping the trail shorter you can see the vortex that is generated by the wingtip
Congrats Alex
Great job guys.
I like your sunglasses 😎 😍😍😍
What would the neighbours think?😂
could you guys make an RC paramotor for coco? love your vids, lots of fun! Thanks :)
Coco looks like he is praying with his hands around the yoke
Love how that left streamer showed the wingtip vortices! Congrats to Coco!!
Andrew Williams I subbed to U will u sub to ms
Next project.... Pilot and CO-Pilot (navigator). Bump that power source to twin P80's and I'll send you my daughter's childhood giant Elmo to navigate for CoCo (they're about the same size). Lemme know ;-)
Most people who have slightly mad ideas tend to fail in the execution. Sometimes with style, sometimes not.
FT has some pretty mad ideas, most of which work and even the fails are invariably stylish and amusing.
This one was a fairly insane concept from the start and, like nearly all of your most insane concepts not only worked but worked well and was flown well.
And I still haven't stopped laughing 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You pay peanuts..... Excellent fun movie.
Awesome guys
The Title of his episode should be:
FliteTest Jumps the Shark!
Really good project!!!
Great quality video
Haha great work guys
9:35 me, picturing a 20 pound brick of chocolate being dropped on some kids head....
Coco is a legend
whoooo.....wow.....I had so much fun watching....thx
Coco needs a flying helmet, goggles and a white silk scarf.
Ok...you got me with the ape.....I subbed
WHOA that flying wing too bad it crashed. Looked cool. Big 3d printed motor. A Monkey Motor? Crash Test Primate? Shock the Monkey parody Crash the Monkey? Flying monkey like those ones in the Wizard of Oz? They creeped me out. Wait, he looks like one of the pilots from my Airline days......I knew I seen that guy somewhere!
Coco is the best pilot at Flight Test
More 360 videos, and let coco do a parachute drop jump! :)
Flitetest great vid and I godt an idea. Make a Big rc parachute for Coco 😎
A kingfisher review would be awesome
WHO is disliking ? Cant stop watching flite Test Video
I definitely didn't hear "dropping some candy" the first time. I had to go back through and make sure it wasn't what I thought it was.
You should make a parachute deployment system for coco
Go. Coco. Go!!! 😎
Nice plane.
Excellent!
Coco pops lol 😂
I’m really bummed I didn’t see the Bix at Oshkosh. I was at the Drone Cage! 🙁
Coco for president!
