A few years ago there was a eagle that tried to "borrow" a couple of toddler's at a beach in new Hampshire, fortunately for the kids the eagle couldn't really carry their weight and dropped them after about ten feet.
Full scale R/C has already been done. September 11, 2001 is a prime example of two radio control full size planes. Just sayin... and Epstein didn't kill himself.
Honestly, it would have been smarter to go with the line design instead of the balloon design. Baby steps instead of leaping straight to Fulton recovery system. Also did the van suffer any damage from baby strike?
You need to film whoever owns that truck calling their insurance company " No, really a baby flew into the back of my truck". Thanks for the laugh. You guys are awesome.
George Leite i actually had a hit and run with a deer when my car was parked and empty! 😬 the deer rad across four lanes of traffic barely missing two moving cars running into the parking lot. The deer slid across the hood of my car before doing a backflip into the windshield of the car next to me, the horns also punctured the side panel. The deer than got up and ran away. The only damage to my car was a trail of fur across the hood of my car, the car next to mine wasn’t so lucky!
That's going to be fun explaining to the insurance company how that dent got in that black van. "Um well a doll baby hit it at high speed. how" ah well, .... it was tethered to a gigantic RC plane at the time...."
I love flite test. It is the best channel for getting people inspired and believe me I am super inspired. Keep up the great work. Thank you very much for taking the time out of your busy lives to create content and introduce plethora of people into the hobby. Stay Safe
@@SoCalTrooper no, we call d him Poops, and after working with him over years, he told me some stories, he was a character, he is now laid to rest next to my father at veterans cemetery.
Interesting fact the first man pulled into the air, was my dads brother Lt. Alexis Doster he is shown in your first clip at 1.34 here is a 40 second clip ruclips.net/video/FRu6ZxFAVU8/видео.html if you go to the clip and look at the eighth comment it explains a little more. Dave Doster
There was a similar project tried, if you trail a long rope behind you and fly in circles the rope will trace a spiral in the air, use a long enough rope and the center of the spiral will be effectively stationary, grab the end and winch up the package.
If no one has mentioned it yet, the old cartoon Tailspin. Instead of dragging baby, how about pulling a sky surfing young bear that glides behind (RC controlled).
make C-130 into AC-130 let me explain, so, there is the ac-130, with three different canons on it, a 25mm gatling gun, a 40mm Bofors, and a 105mm howitzer, for the gatling gun, use a airsoft machine gun, the bofors a nerf gun, and the howitzer a potato canon. :D good idea? *edit Also make a moving btr 80 as a target, maybe add a turret controlled by a separate controller, also control the AC-130 cannons with second control
Imagine being a CIA operative who gets needs exfil and is being chased by two Russian soldiers and then when they Catch up to him hesuddenly stops and says “sorry boys but I got a plane to catch” and then gets pulled up into the air never to be seen again.
Maybe an idea for a future video is make an aircraft carrier to a similar scale as the battleship, add arresting wires to it and arresting hooks to the planes and try to do an RC Carrier Landing.
Really good video, as you have us accustomed to. I really think we need a "part 2" for this project. I want to see that baby save inside. Crazy part would be to get the baby inside the plane with the skyhook and the drop him again with a parachute.
can try you towing a bowling ball and making giant foam bowling pins? that could be great game! (yes I imagined this while watching "baby" drag the ground...)
OMG! You guys need to try to recreate the spy satellites film dropped from space that was caught in mid air that was part of the Key Hole series! The first few satellites were called KH-1--4 Corona so its a great way to remind people to be safe! Maybe drop some hand sanitizer or single rolls of toilet paper from drones as high up as you can get them and then try to catch them on the way down. maybe make 2 planes that will take turns trying to catch the items dropping and maybe have 1 test drop and 3 payload items to give them the most possible chances to catch things! You guys need to do it! or you could even put an old school film canister in it. The coolest thing would be to send up a few disposable cameras or go pro's in a quad and take pictures or videos then drop the cameras when you are done and try to catch them! But maybe wait until you have caught some test items first before you try that.
Man, I've been eyeballing the Jackery stuff for a long time, probably the Explorer 240. Glad they're working well for you guys, I'm going to pick one up eventually for the utility. Fun video as well, but that's as-always! The sponsorship is kinda cool, this is one I'm actually INTERESTED in. GG!
When I was a younger I tied one of my sisters dolls to my drone but the doll swung up and got caught in my one of the props. If that isn’t karma I don’t know what Is.
Very cool, here is a suggestion. In WW 2 C-47 were used to retrieve US "Waco" gliders so as to be able to retrieve gliders from areas not able support C-47 ground launch. Also, during the early years of film based spy satellites "Corona" C-119 were used to mid-air capture film canisters under parachute. Similar system was used to mid-air capture returning materials canisters from asteroids from returning spacecraft (NASA Genesis project, 20054) returning to earth. Could FT try repeat this idea?
Daniel Czeczot For the glider a simple loop stretched between to upright poles, similar to how banner tow planes use, and a tail hook to catch it. The mid-air capture uses a similar setup as the FT crew used. Several videos on RUclips show how full scale system worked.
Josh : Let's cut the other wing tip off! HAHAHAHA! (That was my FIRST thought too!) Glue Gun.......duh! HAHAHAHAHA!!! I'm making a tow hook now to at least tow a banner with with Carbon Z Cessna 150 coming soon thanks to you guys for the inspiration!!! Best of luck and my regards friends! -Dave
LMAO ..................that 'baby' bouncing off the ground behind Cabby was reminiscent of the motor boat scene in 'A weekend at Bernie's' .............too funny guys
This reminds me of the C-130 which recovered a satellite attached to a chute. You should try to launch a turkey with a chute from a cubby and recover it with another
We often think that God gives us commands through His Word just to control us and subject us to His will without understanding that His commands are simply to protect us from the consequences of sin, waywardness, and rebellion. When we begin to realize the importance of walking in obedience, we can then have true freedom in the Spirit. The million-dollar question: Will you go to Heaven when you die? Here’s a quick test. Have you ever told a lie, stolen anything, or used God’s name in vain? Jesus said, “Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” Have you looked with lust? Will you be guilty on Judgment Day? If you have done those things, God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart. The Bible warns that if you are guilty you will end up in Hell. God, who the Bible says is “rich in mercy,” sent His Son to suffer and die on the cross for guilty sinners.. We broke God’s Law, but Jesus paid our fine. That means He can legally dismiss our case. He can commute our death sentence:“For God so loved the world that He gave His only son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Then He rose from the dead and defeated death. Please, repent (turn from sin) today and God will grant everlasting life to all,, ‘who trust in Jesus, then read your Bible daily and obey it. www.livingwaters.com ruclips.net/user/DTBMNextGenerationTraining www.versebyverseministry.org
One of the other less talked about missions of the Fairchild C-119 was a mission involving exposed spy satellite film reentering the atmosphere. The film would re-enter in a capsule that would fall into the ocean on a parachute. If the mission is successful the C-119 will capture the falling capsule by hooking the chute. So there is your next FliteTest mission.
such a fantastic video. Josh is a consummate pilot, he warns Anders if the FPV goes out he'll have to ditch the Gremlin to save Cabby, which is a decision you have to make before you're off the ground or you'll never get around to making it. I did a glider tow and forgot to inform the glider pilot that if he was having trouble dragging me down, to unhook and land off runway. his glider had some issue and pitched a lot and he never disconnected when he should have and it crashed both little foamies. just saying!
man.......if you guys had led out with a toddler running around. conveniently forgetting to mention the doll....that would have been golden....lol. good work guys. thanks for another awesome post
