- RIde along with Composite FX Team Pilot Dave Storey during portions of a demonstration flight at Oshkosh AirVenture 2021. I was so busy at Oshkosh between demo flights and working in the Composite FX booth that charging and setting up the video camera’s became a back priority. Fortunately I found some footage in one of my cameras. Just for those that are interested in seeing what it’s like flying at Oshkosh during the experimental helicopter demo period. Thanks for watching!
That was some impressive work with the traffic cone
I fly rc helicopters. Watching your videos are extremely inspiring. Thank you
Flying RC helicopters is where I started as well. If you notice, a lot of my style of playing around is RC helicopter based whenever I get aggressive. LOL! Thanks for watching!
@@dstoreyaviation Oh I saw, that's why I wrote. Here is a little documentary I made, I have a feeling you'll love it. Enjoy

Excellent- thank you 👍 Why would anyone think a fixed wing is more fun than a rotor wing.
Great flying, Dave!
Kip, you need one of these!!!
great fun flying with you ,what a speed and control
Ron would be proud ☝️
Good job Dave.. I was getting dizzy lol
Wow! Very impressive flying - fantastic skill demonstrated. Thanks for the ride!
Very much in control, love it.
Thank you! The Mosquito XE Series helicopters are one of the best flying helicopters around. Lots of performance and very agile.
Thanks for watching.
IF.... IF... I had won that 1.1 billion dollar lotto....i would have one now. they are so cool. keep smilin
Totally enjoyed the ride. Would like to be flying that.
Oh, sure, you picked up the cone through the large opening.😎 The ride-along was fun... you make it look too easy.
LOL! Well I do have a smaller cone that I practice with before I go to an event. After playing with the smaller cone and I admit, sometimes getting frustrated, then the larger standard cones seem more fun!
Who would have thought that something as fun as playing with safety cones would help with your precision in flying/hovering a helicopter…
These Mosquito helicopters really are great little helicopter and one of the most fun to fly. Thanks for watching!
Awesome!!!
Good job Dave !! 🍺 😎 👍
That pylongame >D :) What a styler!! Nice
Awesome flying! Very interested in the Composite FX ...the T model.
Excelente.

I love your videos! It's hard to tell from your video, but when you're doing the really fast low flying, it looks like you're so close to the ground, as in inches (which I'm sure you're not.) How high off the ground are you doing the low fast stuff?
That’s a good question. I’m usually anywhere between 1’-3’ altitude when I’m at the cone playing or doing something. I’m around 3’-5’ altitude when playing with general hovering maneuvers. When I get moving fast near the ground during demonstration flights like this, I’m at least 5’-10’ so I have enough altitude to flair for a quick stop if something should happen like an engine out or something.
The camera is on a wide angle view setting so it’s a little skewed on depth perception.
Thanks for watching!
You should have said the only bad runway is runway behind you
Jealous, what a neat experience. Are you allowed to fly at night with experimentals?
Yes, one of my highlights in aviation life to fly demonstration flights at Oshkosh.
Night flight? Yes if the aircraft is outfitted with the requirements for night flight from the FAA. My XET is registered for VFR Day/Night operations. It usually spelled out in the Airworthiness Certificate.
Hey Dave, have you ever flown the XET through rain?
I have only flown in mist or very light rain. Most experimental helicopter kits are not designed for all weather flight, mainly just for VFR.
che manico questo ragazzo:;
Dude how do u build this ?
One part at a time…
Only takes approximately 450 man hours to build which is not much for any helicopter. It’s actually a great kit to build and fly.
@@dstoreyaviation is it easy to get components to build that helicopter ? I am from indonesia and i am really interested to learn building this cool helicopter and i'd love to learn it from u
