Brooklands Museum put on a display featuring a WW2 'Tiger Moth' plane Engine Test. Problem was they could not get it going - and not for the lack of effort !!! I took the Micheal in this film....

Yes as hard as it is to believe he managed to squeeze his lard arse in to this work of art.
Hop update 3
มุมมอง 8414 ปีที่แล้ว
03/06/10 hop update, only 3 plants survived the winter (got bad advice and planted them to early). But as you can see the 3 plants might just produce some hops. I'll be sure to let you know how I get on.
My first garden
มุมมอง 9814 ปีที่แล้ว
The gardening bug crawled up my arm and bit me. I have set up a raised bed made from old skirting boards. It's my first go at this so I hope it turns out.

We had some floor tiles put down, I was happy at that !!, but wife said NO!!!! you must put some tiles on the wall to...... So here is my first ever video made on my brand new Apple Macintosh computer.... I know its a load of crap - but I have to start somewhere !

My Tank 2 years On.... I am trying out a new lighting system. This will be my last video of this tank being managed by timers. In future this system isgoing to be computer Controlled my an Aquatronica module.
haha description !
interesting stuff m8
thing stopped on a dime!
still got it?
CONTROL THE CROWDS ! BLIMEY ! Anything with the name Sinclair was TAT. Mind you i do still giggle driving my modified C5. With modern parts and good cycle lane its doable but back then it looked like suicide.
Battery, motor, electronics and body materials were not up to snuff back then. The ELF shows what can be done with technology now. High performance downhill racing mountain bike components, full DOT aproved LED lighting system and a powerful 9 pound lithium battery make these new designs better. Larger wheels and a solar roof bring it all together: th-cam.com/video/r_xDuHuk4_E/w-d-xo.html I got rid of my car 3 years ago and use solar power to get around every day. The option of pedaling just makes this more desirable since everyone needs exercise.
Battery, motor, electronics and body materials were 'State of the Art" back then. The C5 was before its time; but the dream remained & now we have many usable electric cars. Petrol and diesel are now being charged a tax to enter cities - soon they will be banned from them.
First song name pls ?
Maybe better to title this Sopwith Camel engine run?
I like the look on the face of the guy the warden tells off. It's like he just realized what everyone has been saying about him was actually true, after all - he really is a dick.
In all fairness, as a prototype, this thing isn't bad. The design goals are what killed it; it's intentionally designed to be slow. If this thing was made road legal, then it would have probably been a much bigger success. As it is, it really does remind me of Professor X's wheelchair from X-men, and honestly, for 1000 pounds sterling, it's a cheaper electrical wheelchair than most of the ones out there. Maybe they could have just marketed it differently and it would have worked..
Clive Sinclair is the best inventor ever
of crap
Lucky boy
A 24-volt motor and a modern Lithium-ion battery is all it needs to be fast enough to be terrifying.
I wonder... What would the Sinclair C5 have been like as a recumbent tricycle relying on pedal power alone? Having no motor and no battery would have made it a lot lighter...
@AndresVizoso It's called a Mahindra Gee Whizz.
The presenter just echoed my thoughts: even though this was a terrible vehicle, you've got to give Sir Clive credit for seeing into the future.Can you imagine what would have happened if the C5 had caught on?
That's not a Tiger Moth...
i am more interested in the car he drives at the end, can anyone give me any clues?
Thanks for sharing this with us!
I wonder if anyone recognized the Nico Carstens tune 'Zambesi' in the intro to "Paperboy" -- /watch?v=VNyerK5IFP0&t=1m31s /watch?v=cucI2atnxyY /watch?v=hW62m3mQq3o /watch?v=OBJ0rmqgeWc Chris seemed to like it! Well, not really...
my gosh i want one
check out clive sinclair on the johnathon ross show
hey guys, i think clive sinclair is a legend, check out this bands song and video about him it's funny as hell! Just type in electric disorder into the youtube search window!
absolutly UmpaEG could'nt agree with you more, but my vids do have a point to them!!!!!!
do you do any paint drying vids, he hehe
I never took you to be a gardener to be honest but you seem to have got a real passion for it! How do you find the time to do all that when you have to work as well? I'd be knackered LOL!
LOL i had chickens once at mam's, i had 9 of them but they're a lot of hard work! Once you're hens start laying more eggs in the summer you thinking of selling them? The garden looks very strange though, have you done it up since me and soph left? To me it looks smaller :s or is that just one part of it? X
looks good.
Jesus, when did you get a corn snake? I wanted one for my 18th but had no room to put it anywhere, and jim says he doesn't want any pets -_-u How old is she? Wish i had one....LOL
1:34 XDDDDDDDDDDDD
... I meant that in a joke-y way, I owned and loved one
What a lovable piece of junk the Spectrum was, that screechy noise when the tape is loading is music to my ears
Ooo nice corn!! How old is she and what morph? Looks like a Hurricane! Beautiful snake x
Yeah, it's way cool and engineered to the best possibilities of its time... yet, what's the point of this device? It seems like a simple bicycle covers all of the same usage scenarios, and a human powered delta trike can even be superior due to lower weight and more ergonomic engineering freedom.
lol rasher
i bet in this day and age with new tecnology this could take off again
In the paper boy game, looks like he crashed into a C5 lol
The C5? Wow! I have just sold one! Mark
so cool. Clive if you read this re launch the c5
2009
what year was this filmed?.
the sinclair c5 is so cool. I have one and love driving it about. I even got pulled over by the old bill, they took pictures of it and even asked for a go.
LOL great laugh Marky, a really good vid bro you planning on making any more soon? Z XX
hey mark good going make some more
I would imagine suspension would be abig problem lol , whats top speed downhill is it faster than a Robin Reliant lol
So how long does the battery last on one of these things?
hour
