Do you guys have an idea of when these will ship? I am flying to my parents house in Illinois from Oregon and this plane is exactly what I wanted to build during my week long visit to gift my dad(who killed my rc plane when i was a kid before I got to fly it) but I am going at the end of the month and don't want to ship this there if it won't be there while I am.
When I was a kid we had army men about 5 inches tall, hollow plastic men, that had plastic parachutes on them. Be cool if they could find those and drop about a hundred of them,
They’ve already dropped an rc truck out of it. I think it was a red cat racing Everest gen 8. I could be wrong on which gen it was but they did drop an rc out of it. That was the original purpose for the plane.
1) expose melon in bomb bay so that melon cam can see out prior to drop. 2) give bombardier FPV to melon cam 3) RC tail-fins on melon. GUIDED MELON MUNITIONS!
You could install a GPS and get ground-speed as well as barometric altitude and feed it into something like an Arduino so that it could tilt the camera and calculate lead. It's a project I have wanted to attempt for a long time. I need to build a big plane first so it could actually carry something impressive. I will definitely post it to youtube if I can get something working.
Bowling ball na In the words of thunder quack from ducktales let's get dangerous for the fourth of July you guys should drop a fire craxker in the pond
Dropping some bags with different colors of powder would be awesome to see. Colorfull explosions that would be amazing😍. I'm also new to this channel but already love what you guys make!
Me 2! I immediately came to the comments to see if I was the only one. It’s not possible that only part of the digitally recorded 360 footage survived the crash, is it? Maybe they updated the description with a link to it? I’m gonna go check....
Load that plane up with as much glitter as it will hold. Take it up to 400 and release. Other ideas would be hole punches, rolls of crepe paper, Toilet paper, eggs, golf balls, ping pong balls, etc.
Because glitter is essentially micro plastic and never goes away, gets into poor critters who don't need it clogging up their systems, it might be better to drop confetti - or what about a pillow's worth of feathers!
@megaJacobisawesome And they are well known for travelling all over the world. Have you ever actually watched any of their vids chucking stuff off of dams for example?
I CHALLENGE YOU GUYS!!! Build a POPSICLE STICK PLANE!!!! You can use any size popsicle stick and glue them together but you cannot cut them in any way, each stick has to be full sized.
My dream, to have a job where my checklist is... "Plane-check, Camera's-check, Flying pig-check, Watermelons (2@12lb)-check, One CRAZY CREW-aahhh check!"
OKAY......... IDEAS!!!!!!!! -Drop Watermelon again but with little firecracker explosive in it where u can activate the explosion inside the watermelon at any time through out its fall (hopefully close to ground) -Drop a guided bomb -Drop guided bomb with a canter lope with explosive as the war head -Make Fritz X guided bomb with rocket motor at the back -Drop Water balloons -Drop big Nerf whistle dart -Have water ballon fight with teams, people on the ground fighting, then the bomber comes over and just water balloon carpet bombs them.... -Have a rocket with a water ballon warhead -Make 2 teams with some sort of airdrop mission to drop a tank out the back with parachute to invade another teams territory (god we could do sooo much) -Put tonnes of small rockets along a wing and send it all at once. - PLay airsoft battle with A 10 strafing people (wear protective gear) and droping water melon on people HAha jokes
You should make a giant flying aircraft carrier like the SHIELD Helicarrier you did but flying instead of hovering and then take off and land planes on it mid-air.
You guys have done several things with toilet paper before... But how about stuffing as many different coloured rolls into that cargo plane and dropping them all at once? You can get cheap, one-coloured toilet paper with lots of different colours to choose from on Amazon, and I think that would look really cool.
Get a camera on the bottom of the plane or just inside that is self leveling and looking down. FPV bomb sight. Oh, and your gonna need a lot more watermelons.
i launched a small rocket once. it was my first one and i didnt know how high it would go so i used the biggest motor i could put in it. think it might be on the moon. my friends and i never saw it fall back to earth. looked like this live.staticflickr.com/6055/6244585063_5462973128_b.jpg
Load up 4-8 Tiny Whoops on different channels, drop them and the first through a gate on the ground wins! I would come up for this. I guarantee Jesse would be down to sponsor this. This could be something to schedule in for Flite Fest too.
Guys, since you now have a separate bombardier why don't you mount an aim cam underneath the fuselage with fatshark goggles on. You can do a flyby to determine the rate of speed and calculate when to drop it. this way you both can communicate and make drops more precise. Rock on. Awesome channel.
You should install a bunch of super bright white LEDs inside the box to flood it with light, then fill it with glow-in-the-dark items, and drop them at night. Have some on parachutes, let some free fall, and tie streamers to others, to vary the rate of descent of the various objects.
Hey guys, big fan - I have an idea for you... Aircraft Carrier Simulation? Reverse Ring Toss? I don't know what to call it or if it already exists... Take a ring of some kind, say 8 inches in diameter, tie a streamer to it, then rest the ring on the ground so that it is standing vertically. Then, on the tail of your plane, attach a hook large enough to snag the ring during a (very) low pass. I'd love to see you guys try it.
FT Commuter Pre-Order! store.flitetest.com/flite-test-commuter-electric-airplane-kit-762mm-flt-1067/p977513
FliteTest you guys should do basket ball one plane drop the ball and another plane have the basketball net and try to make them swish
HI thank you for doing these videos i have been fan for years and you got me into the hobby thank you so much
Do you guys have an idea of when these will ship?

FliteTest I got 3 ads about people killing with drones
DROP A STACK OF RACE QUADS WITH PILOTS TO FLY THEM AWAY! FASTEST QUAD TO ITS DESIGNATED LANDING ZONE WINS!
Great way to start a Quad race
this is actually a brilliant idea
I want to do this now....
Just don’t drop the pilots
This has to be done. DRL is so boring at the moment.
You should release a battalion of army men each with there own parachutes. That way it looks like your being invaded
Yep. I came here to say pooper troopers. Figure out a way to send them out one at a time but really fast.
I vote for the army men.
When I was a kid we had army men about 5 inches tall, hollow plastic men, that had plastic parachutes on them. Be cool if they could find those and drop about a hundred of them,
@@JayAdams-ml5jf Omg I had one too.
Hmm, rig a static line and some form of spring to push them out the launch hatch.
I think you should design BOMB SIGHT!
With fpv looking forward and down to pin point drop timing.
And have team competitions!
Yes!
I was thinking the same thing. FPV bomb sight
You'll need an altimeter to determine distance to target and some markings to drop at the correct time.
You need to load up that melon bay with as many army figures with parachutes as possible!
yes please
Oh my god yes
GraphicMemesForDramaticPeople
*Or Humvees and M1 Tanks lol*
That would be great!!
YES
Since we know it'll fly with a 12 lb. load, do a bowling ball from 400 ft. See how deep it'll go.
yes
Fpv camera for bombardier can see where he is dropping
Kyle, I was thinking the same thing. Cross hairs and everything. They could set up a whole course with targets.
Awesome idea then they can build a giant scale b17 or b29
Same idea
@@sinformant Yo with those big motors that would be sweet!
I was thinking the same thing!!
Obvious: Drop a plane out of the Skyvan and have that plane drop a small RC car or tiny whoop.
Or maybe drone !
They’ve already dropped an rc truck out of it. I think it was a red cat racing Everest gen 8. I could be wrong on which gen it was but they did drop an rc out of it. That was the original purpose for the plane.
@@jeff4992 Thank you, I must have missed that one. Awesome to watch even after all this time.
I think that little Cessna at 3:50 would be a great trainer for people because it’s small and simple to make
I propose a
"Bixler bomb sight"
Using a FPV camera.
rwehuman 3,2,1 Pickle!, oops I meant melon
100%
Yes. FPV bombsight
Instead of dropping stuff you could also try to land a drone in the plane mid flight.
That's really not a good idea
They did that already...
@@Schladdermann link to the video or it didn't happen.
@@Schladdermann they didn't
Large rc with massive wings for slow flight in the center of the wing there is a cut out about 1.5x the size of the drone drone lands in plane
UPLOAD THE FULL 360 CLIP!
Uncut. Along with some of the other angles. All uncut/unedited raw footage!
Yes! Please! 😂😂😂😂😂
Yes
FT raw clips
Full clip!!!
Drop balloons full of paint at a target or balloons full of flour.
or just balloons with water over human targets?
MELON MURDERERS!!!
@@niki123489 Have you seen that crater? Realy bad idea.
1) expose melon in bomb bay so that melon cam can see out prior to drop.
2) give bombardier FPV to melon cam
3) RC tail-fins on melon.
GUIDED MELON MUNITIONS!
ahhh....the fritz X guided bomb but instead its a watermelon
You should drop a plane out of the plane. ✈️✈️
Yes rc out of rc
🏢🏢
DrewPenguin someone’s been playing ksp
That’s actually quite interesting.... having a plane drop out then fly with the cargo plane?
YESSSSS
this NEEDS to go VIRAL common algorithm.... you can do it!!
imagine if you made a separate FPV system like under the fuselage just for the bombardier! that would be so sick! please do it haha
great idea !
or a dozen soldiers with parachutes
Justin Lewis yes I was thinking the same thing. Spam the hell out of this comment #thishastohappen
With a crosshair
@@raphaelgawn2542 or just a plane load of Spam.
What was the footage from the 360 cam upon the crash like? Wanted to see it :/
Need a paratrooper drop on D-Day Anniversery . . . How many G.I. Joes fit in the Sky Van??
I agree with this mans suggestion.
Awesomesauce a c47 would be cool too but I’d just slap invasion stripes on this thing and make that video
@@TrashMutt yes yes yes
FPV bomb sight for bombardier! See how close can hit a bulls-eye with 20/10/5 foot rings. 300+ feet altitude.
You could install a GPS and get ground-speed as well as barometric altitude and feed it into something like an Arduino so that it could tilt the camera and calculate lead. It's a project I have wanted to attempt for a long time. I need to build a big plane first so it could actually carry something impressive. I will definitely post it to youtube if I can get something working.
You want sketchy? Setup a burning drum and drop fuel filled balloons! 🎈🔥
An RC FPV GBU bomb. The FPV pilot guides it into the target.
They tried this a very long time ago. One of their funniest video :)
Yes!
@@thenerdyouknowabout Which video was that?
You guys should drop a bowling ball out of the plane!!!
Bowling ball na In the words of thunder quack from ducktales let's get dangerous for the fourth of July you guys should drop a fire craxker in the pond
It was a 12lb melon, they could do a 12lb bowling ball
Now go replace your divet!
Please drop a giant cube of jello! Love the channel. Keep up the good work.
You guys should help Amazon with their automated grocery delivery service. Don't change a thing, blind drops from 400 feet is perfect.
Ooooooooof
Oh my gosh! There’s finally a Cessna!!
Can’t wait to build it!
Dropping some bags with different colors of powder would be awesome to see. Colorfull explosions that would be amazing😍. I'm also new to this channel but already love what you guys make!
"We can always run" Josh said
Josh:Safety is the number one concern
Very nice modification and execution on the Melon drop... Impact at 12:44 Looking forward to the next one guys.. #FLIGHTTEST #Customcrawlerz
I wanted to see the full 360 footage from drop to ground...
Richard Crouch I know they didn’t even show us

Do a collaboration with ( How Ridiculous ) all you guys should get creative and surprise us !
... Dude, that's legit a great idea.
Yes that'd be amazing. Do how ridiculous, dude perfect, and flight test colaberation the watermelon smashing air drop trick shot
timluns yes!!!!! Please!!!!!!!!!!!
Hah!! Just posted the exact same thing before I spotted this LOL!!
@megaJacobisawesome And they are well known for travelling all over the world. Have you ever actually watched any of their vids chucking stuff off of dams for example?
drop a block of dry ice from the plane into the ground or in the pond.
Now that is a good idea! (And it will look cool when it's in the plane)
Nerf whistle darts
They fix themselves in flight and you can drop them on one another without injury.
Plus you get that nice whistling effect from British WWII ordnance
Edward Hu I’m sure they could buy a huge pack of them from amazon. Imagine hundreds dropping down on a quiet day
@@CarpeNoctem135 yes
Title dropping 1000 nerf darts from rccplane
You should make a fireplane and put out a fire with it😁
I want to see the full 360 video.Not just little snippets of it.
Shades of the David Letterman Show.
Bowling ball.
done
You guys should drop tickets during flite fest out of the sky van for a raffle or something like
12:30 the last footage of Hiroshima bombing 1945 (colorized)
I CHALLENGE YOU GUYS!!!
Build a POPSICLE STICK PLANE!!!!
You can use any size popsicle stick and glue them together but you cannot cut them in any way, each stick has to be full sized.
And make sure propellers are also popsicle
I think you boys are cloud seeding all wrong. 🍉🛫
Nice pun
Show the entire 360 drop footage. Very cool.
My dream, to have a job where my checklist is...
"Plane-check,
Camera's-check,
Flying pig-check,
Watermelons (2@12lb)-check,
One CRAZY CREW-aahhh check!"
Oh my god that friendship is sooo pure😂😂👍👍
Drop a load of tomatoes
They will cover a large area on impact and the carnage should be red and spectacular!
Drop a 360 camera out of a plane with a parachute
Nedyarb, that's 400$ brotha!
Yes
that would be cool to see the quads orbit it on the way down
And with a properly sized chute, the worst it will get are grass stains.
Rotor Ryan they stuck it in the watermelon, why not with a parachute
Please build a b17 and drop firecrackers out of it
Btw love the videos :)
Yes! Yes! Please yes!
That would be great especially with some big powerful fireworks.
OKAY......... IDEAS!!!!!!!!
-Drop Watermelon again but with little firecracker explosive in it where u can activate the explosion inside the watermelon at any time through out its fall (hopefully close to ground)
-Drop a guided bomb
-Drop guided bomb with a canter lope with explosive as the war head
-Make Fritz X guided bomb with rocket motor at the back
-Drop Water balloons
-Drop big Nerf whistle dart
-Have water ballon fight with teams, people on the ground fighting, then the bomber comes over and just water balloon carpet bombs them....
-Have a rocket with a water ballon warhead
-Make 2 teams with some sort of airdrop mission to drop a tank out the back with parachute to invade another teams territory (god we could do sooo much)
-Put tonnes of small rockets along a wing and send it all at once.
- PLay airsoft battle with A 10 strafing people (wear protective gear) and droping water melon on people HAha jokes
You should make the watermelon/bomb guided. Put some steerable fins and an FPV camera on the nose. It would look like Desert storm.
Awesome!!!! Fpv camera under cargo bay to really “place” the mellon
You should make a giant flying aircraft carrier like the SHIELD Helicarrier you did but flying instead of hovering and then take off and land planes on it mid-air.
Drop little fireworks that explode on impact, or maybe airsoft grenades?
12:33 that music adds a beautiful kind of dropping-drama to the watermelon scene lol

So traditionally 5 lps sacks of flour make excellent bombs
9:13
skip to there if you don’t want to see the build
That is when they drop the
WATAMELONES
Edit: that was the test run 11:15
The one you want now? FPV guided darts. It's just an FPV glider. Two servos, super easy, and you could make them indestructible if you do it right.
You should drop like BB's or Darts on a baloon field!!
Lawn darts.
Put FPV BOMBER CAMERA on the bottom of cargo plane
“I don’t even think i’ve seen a plane so heavy”
All the commercial airliners : *Am I a joke to you*
Rc plane
Steel tip lawn darts, parachute army men, tank, party poppers, gliders, Frisbee, boomerang, a drone, a live fish with a 360 on it.
Great video! You guys should fill up the bomb bay with snap pops and drop them onto a parking lot!
Spinning/bouncing bomb idea with water? Like dam busters historically
They should make the helicarrier from Avengers, and have working fighter jets on top of it.
Zander Cochran they already did
Lawn darts or bowling balls. GO!
I'll just leave that right there. 😉

Drop cricket ball marrows/gem squash like 10 at once so it looks like a true bomber
the bombardier should have FPV looking straight down for better accuracy.
Great video. Keep up the good work.
You should drop coconuts from the plane . And I love the video. My name is seth I am 12 years old and I love Flite Test.
Imagine flying the cargo plane over the neighbor’s house you don’t like..
And dropping melons on their roof 😂😂
Or horse manure, maybe not.
ZombieFreaks 02 no. Bowling balls

My life is sad.
BOMB SIGHT for sure would make a dope video OR maybe attach a paintball gun have a dog fight hahaha
My dad and I think that you should do a Snoopy: They flying Ace and his dog house as one of your flight test projects.
Love your videos!
That's fun but it's been done over and over, at least since the 1970's. There's actually a company still selling a kit.

Either or. Would not be disappointed
Why not Lawn Darts?
Like competition darts wouldn't be lethal from that altitude?
FPV bombardier with a bombsight would be awesome
