Everybody who wants to help us and everybody who wants to promote his own channel can send videos to our email: cartestchannel@gmail.com
We want to keep most of the original sound in videos so there is no music or voice comments in videos. You can enjoy original engine sounds. Hope you like the videos :)
I volunteer at the Kalamazoo Aviation History museum and we have a 4360 on the quick engine change platform. One February Sunday when there were more volunteers than visitors i gave a walk around tour to an older gentleman who had a grand son in tow. He made a few comments about the museum's aircraft and finally I asked him what he flew. "I didn't fly. I helped design the quick engine change platform" . He went on to tell me that the engine had roughly a 900 hour TBO but could be working perfectly today and not start tomorrow. The quick change engine platform was useful if the platform was on the same field as the airplane that required a change- which could be done in one day instead of the three days that it normally required . I feel very privileged to have met so many people whose lives added so much to our technical knowledge.
🔝🆙 Excellent rhe Wasp Major Engine of the time💪✈️💫🌠
Call me weird,but I just LOVE the part when these engines transition out of running "dirty" on fire up going into a clean idle.
Nope me too 😊
I love to hear and smell them
Gotta love those old radial engines.
Pops was an engine mechanic in the pacific. Miss him. Beautiful music, thanks 🙏
Ah, what a lovely sound.
Pure Raw Power, Love It. No Computer, Wacked out Electronics.
That begs the question: who, in their right mind, having turboprop/turbofan would swap same for heavy grenade of a recip like this? C'mon, raise your hands. And bank drafts. (Small recips are now going to Jet-A. Try to find 100/130.)
@@jacquesblaque7728 Hey when you get a chance write up an interpretation of what appears to be the ramblings of a MAD MAN.
Do you like these Pratt and Whitney Engines ?
Doesn't everybody?
My father was an aircraft mechanic on the F4U Corsair. Guam and Okinawa. Were those the good old days? You could see what was trying to kill you.
Would have thought it needed a prop. At least some sort of load.
@@ronjohnson9507 - Just love the sound of these round engines, especially the Wright R-3350 and the P&W R-4360.
I'm afraid of them
Fantastic compilation, thank you.
That was the first aircraft engine that I actually started. When it was on the test stand in techschool, at power it felt like the stand was going to twist apart. Most of my experience was with r2000 on caribou in Nam.
How long can they run the engines without a prop cooling them?
Impresionante Mecánica de Genios !!!
PW4360's a gutsy corn cob of an engine. Yep 3500hp + on tap in final guise versions.
Thinking about how many things can go wrong in a complicated engine like that, I am impressed that the planes kept flying hours long missions while monumental catastrophes were rare.
Very cool. It's hard to imagine much of a temperature balance between cylinder rows in normal operation.
Tell me why those things burns so much oil?
STAND BACK!!!!! IT'S LIT!!!!
I’m no aircraft power plant mechanic, but maybe a prop or even just a weight may smooth out that 2nd and 4th engine. I love these engines for their power, complexity, and sound. By the way, that’s not smoke at startup, that the dreams and aspirations or climate cry babies
Those cry babies dying or losing everything they own in California fires, Kentucky floods and Florida hurricanes?
Cool vid love those motors
Fantastic engines.
First time I started on of these monsters the hair on my neck and arms stood tall LoL. :o)
One Bad Ass engine..!
Wondering how anyone pulls em through first before start???if there using 115/45 gas wondering how keep all plugs from fowling
Between every flight they had to change all the spark plugs, 56 per engine, times four engines, 224 hard to get at spark plugs.
I wonder if anyone knows how many radial engine spark plugs were made during WWII, it had to be millions
Why?? A car doesn’t need that kind of work
@@rylanthompson5844 You can't compare modern car engines to those engines. You can drive 100,000 miles without changing spark plugs on modern cars, but forty years ago you got 15-20 thousand miles out of spark plugs. Those radial engines fowled a lot of spark plugs, especially the bottom cylinders, so they figured it was better to be safe than sorry.
Would a good analogy be computers then and now?
Everything we created produced so much lead, carbon emissions, smoke and noise!
In love more like it😍
Starting one of these engines without a torque applicator is... really smart.
Never seen an engine run up without a prop or a test club.
The corn cobb
Imagine a R4360 in a car or a truck 😮
My druthers: P&W PT6, 1200 shp version ftw. Forget the heavy, bulky radial grenade.
Or a tank ....
How does that engine stay cool without the prop?
run it just a few minutes.
I always thought these things had to chop down propellers on them because they needed it or something
What single engine fighter is that?
And I thought a V8 sounded good...😃
The unreliability factor was easily overcome by putting many engines on the wing! The B-36 had six and could loose two and still fly'...with the jet pods. A B-36 once stayed aloft for 51 hours...with those unreliable engines!
There's only two kinds of engines, Pratt and Whitney and all the rest.
Cough Rolls Royce
@@SvenTviking it just ain't the same as a Pratt and Whitney, but yes they do sound awesome!!
Just think how efficient these engines could be by using today's technology with electronic fuel injection with electronic ignition control. All the antics of trying to start these large round motors would end.
🇵🇹😎
They were a disaster for mechanics and thus airlines. 56 plugs.
Pancake engine
This poor engine suffers from overheating issues with a big propeller flying in the cold sky! You shouldn't be running an engine this powerful and massive without anything to provide cooling.
Idling without any load is very different to maximum rpm, power and load.
Meh. Not even close to a Hog.
