  • This is the plane I tried to improve my Guinness World record for the fastest RC-Jet with in 2016.
    The plane is a design by Christoph Meier, Tunc Uzun and myself.
    It is powered by a Behotec JB180 turbine engine which is manually started. It has no starter.
    The max speed is 750 Km/h.
    The plane is already in this video: • 744 KMH 462 MPH THE WO...
    The camera is a Mobius Action Camera V3 with lens D.
    For the ones who think that the video is a accelerated version:
    the date and time in the lower corner is made by the camera for you. So it is NOT a fake!!
    The flights where done during the Pulse Jet Meeting 2017 at the Airfield Rothenburg / Germany.

      most jets are not able to vertical climb a long time they are totally the reverse of rockets ... those are good for vertical climbing, there Engine are made for it ... plane rely on there wings ... to be Carburant/time efficient so there engine (turbojet) are not efficient for vertical climb

      One way could be the smartphone itself, of course. Smartphones generally are only 100-150 grams, and if you somehow disassemble and then set it up to work as a recorder without a screen, I'd doubt it'd be over 80 grams. Just stick in a USB to export the files afterwards.

      it's just the engine in my opinion.... mostly the aerodynamics are irelavant at speed just like early jets... he just needs the bare minimum lift with as low drag as possible and then if you use a bigger engine you get faster.... it's more like a rocket than an aeroplane in some ways, the wings just get it into the air

    I'm happy this holds the record. Most beautiful RC aircraft I've seen, and certainly one of the most elegantly designed of any aircraft, RC or full-scale. You and Cristoph have much to feel proud of! What was the design process like? Did many full-scale aircraft (or aspects of them) serve as inspirations, or was it purely a matter of aerodynamics/engineering from scratch?
    Both my wife and I are also very happy that the world's fastest/scariest RC plane is a vibrant fuschia pink. :D Is it primarily for visibility? Plus I am extra impressed at the belly landings/scuffed paint. This aircraft clearly does not need to be perfect or pristine to be able to do insane things.

    • @TheGhostflier
      @TheGhostflier  6 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      It is a improved version of the old plane. The design was entirely based for aerodynamics and effiency.
      Yes, the day light magenta on top is the best color I have ever seen. So at any time of the flight I see either the magenta on top or black or day light green on the bottom side.

    I agree with other commentors that flying using a forward looking camera would be nice to extend the range beyond line of sight. However, in the event of any lag in the video stream for even a small fraction of a second could be fatal. All you need then is an on board autopilot flight control system with radar and a gyro inertial nav system to take control in the event of a video stream hiccup.
    But seriously, that's a beautiful work of art-science. Now if you could scale it up enough to carry one 175 lb person...🤔

    • @markotik75
      @markotik75 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      HowlingMoonCinemas I was thinking that too but watched the other video and noticed it just lands flat so it needs to be on top- plus it needs to be low down for least drag and in the middle means it can see forwards and backwards from the same same camera mount. I would guess this is pretty much the only viable place for it. ( I think...)
      Would be really cool to have the camera built into the nose though, maybe behind a mounded plexiglass nosecone?

    Absolutely incredible. Thank you so much for putting the camera on the plane, it is a real pleasure for us to watch! I currently have the unofficial fastest FPV plane in the world (gps fround speed 249mph), recognised on this forum: fpvlab.com/forums/showthread.php?20039-Personal-Bests-V5-(LEADERBOARDS). It really would not be a great weight or size expense to equip your plane with FPV, It may not be sensible to fly it via FPV, but the overlayed data on an OSD on the video would be great to see. I have found that my planes reach a much greater 'peak' speed at some moment during the flight, than is measured when trying to get through timing gates. I would think your plane is over 800kmh at some points. Best regards. Rupert.

    • @EnglishTurbines

      I dont doubt how you have measured the speed....but its a question about which part of the flight you recorded...Using an onboard GPS gives a constant speed readout for the ENTIRE flight, not just a small part of it.
