Stay tuned to the very end for some exciting news! Also, that older couple was the best. I wish everyone was as happy and positive as they were. Anyone who has reported me to the FAA, called the police, or reported us to the township should take note. 😅 If you want to try a two or three blade E-Prop for your Moster 185, be sure to pick it up here. - tuckergott.com/collections/all
I just got confused how you just posted the video, but this comment is 9h old, realised it's probably possible to comment on the unlisted video, and when you post it, the comment is still there
Hey Tucker It has been scientifically proven that three bladed props are the most efficient propellers to use. Even more so than four bladed props. Blade radius or circumference doesn't matter, neither does pitch or AOA. It just seems to be one of those strange aerodynamic anomalies. Your climb rate numbers are clear evidence of this.
@@randybarnhill3098 Interesting! Do you have any links to this research? I would think that pitch and diameter would have an influence but the 3 blade definitely feels most efficient.
I think my favorite part of flying a paramotor is seeing people react, pull over on the side of the road, wave and take pictures while i foot drag by. Its a special feeling :)
@@NathanBiskop It's really cool, I flew a lot in tandem already! There was one time where my instructor gave me the controls and told me to land on the beach! I have no words to explain how awesome that was! My advice for you is to find a good instructor, search for feedback on that instructor/school, good training is really really important. I friend of a friend got injured very bad because of bad training, he was taking the trike license and did his first flight with only 2 days of training!! this is crazy (and illegal in my country), my instructor usually takes like ~1month (depending on how fast you learn) before he allows you to fly solo on a trike. On takeoff, he was not able to control the wing and crashed, luckily he survived. When searching for an instructor, try to find advice from people in your area, usually, pilots know which schools are good. When you start your training, don't rush things, first, you will need to master ground control with and without the engine, when you feel confident enough with ground handling your instructor will see that and you will start to train takeoffs and landings. This is a safe sport but training is very important for the safety Also never forget to do the pre-flight checklist, some instructors (even good ones) don't enforce this enough. Honorable mention Never fly a wing without mastering ground handling first, even if you consider yourself an expert, because all wings behave differently
Tucker is this your First step to became an paramotor dealer?, if so good for you, because of your channel and videos a lot of people know, love and start in this sport, so I really think you can be a reliable parts and paramotor dealer to a lot of people, I guess next it will be motors, , helmets, and for last frames and harnesses you go for it tucker! And evolve and grow because this is your natural field of work. I can image a personalized full equipment designed by risky biscuits
I've wanted to paramotor for years. Got in 20 hours of fixed wing training then got flooded out of my home in Baton Rouge. You have a very inspirational channel. Keep up the great work! Cheers
It was so nice to see these people act that way. I have pretty much given up on flying drones even though I fly legally and ethically, because I have gotten some flak in the past. Every once in a while you run into someone who is genuinely curious, and it makes my day. I will spend more time talking to them than flying if given the chance.
I got busy over the last few months and havent been watching your videos...now I watch a single video and you instantly reignite my desire to do this, not that I stopped wanting to, but it's definitely moved up in my list if priorities now.
If it was a guaranteed win i would totally buy a prop. I've been watching your videos for at least a year and didn't know paramotoring existed until i came across you videos. Been dieing to do it myself ever since.
Love all your videos, I love interesting stories, you and Jaclyn are so much fun to watch, please talk about wind speed, when it's to windy, flying is on my Bucket list 😛🤣🤙
LOL, Tucker ; ). I had to chuckle @ "If you're a reasonable pilot", cuz some of us have little choice but to fly in rocky, sandy, rough places (in the desert), where chipped, cracked, sand-blasted, and pitted props is a constant issue. I've begun to fly with "PPT" (paint protection tape) on my blades. For cars it's apparently great, that's not the same as a prop blade-tip spinning at near the speed of sound. We'll see how well it works over time.
I give tucker major props (pun intended) on being a great business man. Not all big youtubers properly do their marketing and sell product :) you do it like a boss!
The advantage of multi-blade props are increased mass and increased wing area. Increased mass means the blade is smoother, its grater mass lessens vibration because it absorbs more vibration. Increased wing area means more lift. Props are wings arranged vertically to produce horizontal lift and push you or pull you over the earth's surface rather than above the earth's surface like an airplane's wings. They work the same way though. More wing area means more lift, and so for props it means more thrust. The great thing about more thrust is you can run the engine at a slower rpm and still get the same thrust, saving fuel, and producing less engine vibration, AND lower engine temperatures. Those flying air-cooled 2-strokes rather than 4-stroke water-cooled engines don't think much about engine temperature, but the 4-stroke engines operate at a much lower temperature, which equals longer engine life, fewer repairs and rebuilds, plus MORE power. 2-stroke engines that are run at the same power as 4-strokes burn themselves out quickly. If you look at general aviation, the only airplanes that fly with two blade props today, are the low-power civilian airplanes. The fastest, airplanes all have 4 or 5 blade props. The greater surface area of multi-blade props is needed to get the thrust needed to hit the greater speeds, as increasing the length of the blade causes cavitation at the blade tips, which slows you down. There is a limit to how long a prop-blade can be, so increasing the number of shorter prop-blades is the only solution to the need for greater thrust with a prop propelled airplane.
All the best with your eprops sales Tucker. Respect and "props" 😂 to you for your more recent videos explaining why you like and choose to use the gear that you do, whilst not bashin' the other brands. I know we have had a discussion about this before and I really think you are getting a great message over, without upsetting the users of other brands who are happy with what they fly in terms of performance and reliability. 👍🏼✌🏼🙂 Blue skies.
You tube seems to only portray older folks blowing a gasket over what some young guys are up to. Thanks for including that couple, pretty typical couple actually. They like cool stuff.
Hey Tucker! I've been watching your channel like crazy! Great vids! A friend and I are planning on getting some training this fall or winter! I can't wait to run into the sky!!!
love your videos something you do with the back ground music I love and have to find the song and add it to my library. thank you for that. and it's just a dream to do what you do. The music helps me to live that dream.
I dreamed I was paramotoring when I was about 10 years old. It was a recurring dream. I love watching these and really want to own 2 paramotors one day.
Great video Tucker! I fly a light sport aircraft with three blades and also prefer them to two blades. Also, we very rarely fly below 2000 MSL. But keep your eyes open guys. Scan. 👍🏻
I can’t imagine how anyone could be negative about what you do. It’s amazing and I wish I could do it but I do t have the balls. Lol anyway it would be interesting to see what kind of maintenance is required for your equipment. Happy Independence Day!!
Hey Tucker really enjoy your videos maybe you're aware but when launching from this park you are within 1 - 2 miles of two private airports & one seaplane base. One of the airports & the seaplane base are on the New York sectional chart. At approximately the 5:00 minute mark the airport not on the sectional is just on the other side of the tree line to your left. At approximately the 16:00 minute mark the plane you see below is making a low approach to the airport that is on the sectional. Just thought I'd point this out so you & your friends are aware that there could be potential traffic taking off, landing or making a low approach at any one of these airports or seaplane base.
I have to say Tucker, your videos are an inspiration to us who are getting into the sport. So I guess it's time to buy a wing and win that motor... :) Stay Safe!
The most likely reason for the additional vibration is because your body blocks the air flow to both blades at the same time every 1/2 revolution. On the 3 blade only one blade at a time is being blocked from the air flow, and the pulses (vibrations) come both lighter, and much more frequently. In perfectly clean air the two blade should be more efficient with very little difference in vibration.
Flight! 🪂 Wow! That Looks Like So Much Fun! Thank You Tucker For Sharing Your Awesome Adventures In The Big Blue Sky! Its An Awesome Dream! Would ❤ To Become A Paramotor Pilot Someday! Yes! Someday For Sure! 🪂 Blessings: James... 🌈
For a fixed wing plane, a two-blade is typically faster than 3 or 4. Imagine same with your application? So maybe for a cross country flight, better option. Otherwise, thrust is better on a 3-blade and I find them smoother, less vibration
Ive flown aircraft with 2 to 5 blade props and ive always felt the 3 blade has the best of pros versus cons so far. I want to try the new carbon fiber 4 and 5 blade props that just came out but don't know anyone close that has had them installed on their aircraft yet plus they cost a lot more than the standard material ones.
Do all these props have the same warp angle? Wouldn't that pose a factor in the sounds? Like if the 3 blade is higher pitch whine, how much performance would be sacrificed in an adjustment of the warp angle?
Hey Tucker just got my shirt and hat today bro and their freakin sweet thanks bro can’t wait to order new merch and register for your awesome give away prize thanks again Tucker
Commercial wind turbine engineers agree... the 3 blade design is the most practical for many reasons. The 2 blade designs moved the blades to quickly causing degradation, 4 blade is to expensive because each blade moves independently from each other they all require pitch motor assembly's etc..
I am gonna start paramotoring. I love you videos on TH-cam. I have a question. Faa 103 states you can only fly single , I've seen you and your mom also you and your dad. I also see double seater trike kits. Is it legal to fly double ? Also over cities ir towns inheard as long as you're over 1500ft or high enough to coast away from town if engine fails that you're OK. DO you know the correct answer ?
You should carry cards around to hand to all the people who express interest in what you do. I'm sure they'd love to see what it looked like when you came in to land.
Interesting to hear about the torque effect on the Scout Mobile. Is the torque comp on Scouts "tuned" for the average 2 blade? Was really surprised to hear it still wanted to drift left even with trimmers offset. 🤔
This is the earliest I could get So MR Tucker Gott ,you said u have to train for this paramoto? How long must u train? Anyway thanks if you reply and thank u for keeping in touch with us... We appreciate it
Those large hour glass towers at the power plant are for condensing steam that is used in the turbines so the water can be reused. They are primarily used on larger power plants (smaller power plants use other methods to condense steam). They are commonly associated with nuclear plants because nuclear plants need to be large to be economically viable.
Tucker is right, I'm so use to people calling the cops or complaining about us that I don't really know how to react when someone acts nice around me. Any of you getting into this sport better get use to the constant complaints and cops being called on you.
Tucker, That foot drag is awesome, but it looks like it could be potentially dangerous. If for some reason you biffed, you could lose your feet to the prop. (at least, it looks like your feet are pretty much that far back..) I know I saw a recount of someone who sliced the back of his heel from having a weird long stride on launch.
Great video the three blade sounds good in flight. Question what is the weight and height limit on these things I’m 7 foot and 295 lb. I flew a paraplane a couple times and that was cool. This seems a whole other level.
Weight is sort of irrelevant as there are tandem setups that can carry over 500 lbs. Most importantly, you need a big wing and secondarily, you need a big motor. Physical fitness is more important if your goal is to foot launch. 😊
Less weight of the props means the engine works easier which has two more advantages. 1, less ware and tear on the engine and 2, better fuel efficiency. All arou, you get great advantages.
where the heck is the talk about the giveaway?! I am EXCITED! if you just have a wing though, can you just kite it? like I haven't got the money to buy the kit or the training yet, but could I just kite for a while?
I would like to see a video about the different props and their effect on climb rate at high altitude. I live at high altitude and this would interest me.
Hi Tucker! I was wondering what model gopro you would recommend for flights, I'm new to this sport and I wonder what the cheep est effective camera would be good for me!
If price is a big concern, check out the Akaso brand on Amazon. It's the brand I use to record when I ski. They have a lot of the same features as the name brands for less money. Don't go too cheap though or you start to give up important features like image stabilization. The first camera I got was like $20 and it worked fine when there wasn't a lot of movement, but got really shaky when I was skiing
That three blade sounds like the motor is revving faster,so how is that affecting fuel consumption?I'm still surprised at that four blade format and would still be interested in seeing it reconfigured as a cruciform like those old WW1 bombers.You never know,it might work better that way............................
I don't think the three blade revs any faster, it just sounds like it because of the frequency. Fuel consumption isn't noticeably different but I would suspect it is slightly better with the 3 blade.
Two more cons for 3 blade vs 2 blade: Doesn’t fit in the hatchback or other compact places as well and it may stress motor bearings a little more. But, definitely seems smoother and more thrust.
Stay tuned to the very end for some exciting news! Also, that older couple was the best. I wish everyone was as happy and positive as they were. Anyone who has reported me to the FAA, called the police, or reported us to the township should take note. 😅

With the 3 and 4 blade do you notice more drag if you chop power and decend?

"fallen for", hmm maybe not, how about "Three blades have cut their way into my heart", nope still not right. Marketing, not as easy as it seems.
Way to put a different "spin" on e-prop marketing strategies.. lol
How 'bout "augered in"? Hmm, prolly not.
I'm a big fan of these new blades. they shave off my fuel consumption. I think they're the best a man can get!

Hi Tucker. I don't know where you got your scout from, but is there any issues with warranty when using the 3-blade prop? Does it void it? Thanks.
Commercial wind turbine engineers agree... the 3 blade design is the most practical for many reasons. The 2 blade designs moved the blades to quickly causing degradation, 4 blade is to expensive because each blade moves independently from each other they all require pitch motor assembly's etc..
Would wear and tear on the motor/mounts/exhaust also be another advantage of the smoothness of the 3 blade?
I am gonna start paramotoring. I love you videos on TH-cam. I have a question. Faa 103 states you can only fly single , I've seen you and your mom also you and your dad.

An advantage on E-prop is that they have a number so by that number you can replace one piece instead of the whole set.
Back in the 50’s, my dad was always tinkering with different props on his ski boat. He didn’t down two Red Bulls first however.
based on some of your videos... I ended up ordering a Moster 185+ and the 3 blade eprop.
18:44 The guys at Parajet are amazing, so my guess is a Parajet paramotor, maybe the Maverik
Incorrect. 😉
Great video! Thank you for sharing
I wonder if a 4 blade in the standard + configuration would be any better than that elongated X.
You should carry cards around to hand to all the people who express interest in what you do. I'm sure they'd love to see what it looked like when you came in to land.
Awesome video!!!
props are normally offset six degrees to combat that torque issue
love this style of video!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Interesting to hear about the torque effect on the Scout Mobile. Is the torque comp on Scouts "tuned" for the average 2 blade? Was really surprised to hear it still wanted to drift left even with trimmers offset. 🤔
Sorry, meant right drift.

So MR Tucker Gott ,you said u have to train for this paramoto? How long must u train?

Training normally takes 10-14 days. Check out the link/info I have in the description!

Tucker, That foot drag is awesome, but it looks like it could be potentially dangerous. If for some reason you biffed, you could lose your feet to the prop. (at least, it looks like your feet are pretty much that far back..) I know I saw a recount of someone who sliced the back of his heel from having a weird long stride on launch.
I remember seeing him at Baja burrito in Clinton a while back.
hey Tucker check out 360° swing Plus paramotor looks really cool
Great video the three blade sounds good in flight. Question what is the weight and height limit on these things I’m 7 foot and 295 lb. I flew a paraplane a couple times and that was cool. This seems a whole other level.
Weight is sort of irrelevant as there are tandem setups that can carry over 500 lbs. Most importantly, you need a big wing and secondarily, you need a big motor. Physical fitness is more important if your goal is to foot launch. 😊
Less weight of the props means the engine works easier which has two more advantages. 1, less ware and tear on the engine and 2, better fuel efficiency. All arou, you get great advantages.
where the heck is the talk about the giveaway?! I am EXCITED! if you just have a wing though, can you just kite it? like I haven't got the money to buy the kit or the training yet, but could I just kite for a while?
You say, you have put a lot of hours in over a month...
How much do you fly and what is your weather minimum/maximum to fly?
I would like to see a video about the different props and their effect on climb rate at high altitude. I live at high altitude and this would interest me.
That three blade is so damn aesthetic!
Trim adjustable blades would be available that would be awesome
Hi Tucker! I was wondering what model gopro you would recommend for flights, I'm new to this sport and I wonder what the cheep est effective camera would be good for me!
If price is a big concern, check out the Akaso brand on Amazon. It's the brand I use to record when I ski. They have a lot of the same features as the name brands for less money. Don't go too cheap though or you start to give up important features like image stabilization. The first camera I got was like $20 and it worked fine when there wasn't a lot of movement, but got really shaky when I was skiing
How do you enter for the training and motor contest/give away thing?
This is awesome, looks so fun. What is the chase cam, that thing is great footage! Nice vid!
Hey uh. Nice new 3 bladed e prop
Such a humble guy. "You've got talent there." "Yeah, I'm a TH-cam star with almost a million and a half subs." Like, never.
That three blade sounds like the motor is revving faster,so how is that affecting fuel consumption?I'm still surprised at that four blade format and would still be interested in seeing it reconfigured as a cruciform like those old WW1 bombers.You never know,it might work better that way............................
I don't think the three blade revs any faster, it just sounds like it because of the frequency. Fuel consumption isn't noticeably different but I would suspect it is slightly better with the 3 blade.
Two more cons for 3 blade vs 2 blade: Doesn’t fit in the hatchback or other compact places as well and it may stress motor bearings a little more. But, definitely seems smoother and more thrust.
