- Well since winter is upon us and I cant fly the ultralight right now, I'd figure i'd put those giant hobbyking motors to work elsewhere! So we bolted the giant electric motors to one of those kids snow sleds and ran down the street in it!

Hahaha imagine getting pulled over in that. "Yeah sorry officer, the snow storm buried my car and my boss was riding my ass to get the office, had to take the prop sled"
Im thinking no tickets since no laws onn it ,lol unless it falls under snowmobile
Charles New a guy got a ticket in australia for riding a motorised esky, anything can happen
I got pulled over once being towed in a power wheels.
@@newdogatplay It is not technically a motor vehicle, as there are no driven wheels, or wheels at all!
@J I'm thinking you're correct on this one, drunk or not, you aren't the one in control necessarily, make a bad call cause of the alcohol and the horse would decide you're stupid and go with the safe option! Right??!?
"Yeah this? This large electric motor and propellor? Yeah this is just some leftovers from that time I built and then flew an airplane. An actual, life-sized airplane, in which I flew and which I piloted. Yeah no big deal, you know, needed an upgrade"
When you talk about it all so casually, you are doing something very well.
9:16 The ultimate ghetto DIY Go-Pro mount.
I want to see that on a frozen lake
Would be the best place for it
john cuervo true
DEJA VU!!!!!!!!!!!
With a proper sledge!
I wanna see it on a thawed lake
Her: come over
Peter: but snow
Her: my parents aren't home
Peter:
3D Print Everything 9:10
Peter can you please make a paraglider
Thanks, Mem
Another thing Peter is you should get a shed or (sorry) clean you basement a little

And if they are home, no worries because I'm sure he could build a room not problem
What about twin engine? It would give you more thrust without having to overload the engines and the posibility of differencial thrust as a yaw axis. Looks really fun nonetheless, great job peter!
just put in a combustion engine and you are good

Good one
Imagine being on a desert island with this guy... you'll be on your way home in a plane made out of driftwood and washed up junk in no time. See how fast he works :p
Need to try on a frozen pond or lake!
You should put a pair of skies on the sides with a suspension . Interested to see if it would go faster since there's less ground contact .
Surface area doesn't really matter for friction. What would matter is that friction between well waxed skis and snow is way less than between a shitty sled and snow.
@@tissuepaper9962 You may be right but if so, why do catamarans (with dual hulls and less combined water contact area) always beat regular sailboats in a race?
@@thuswaldner1 Hydrodynamic drag isn't the same as friction. It's much more complicated to model, and pretty much completely incomparable.
Anyway, catamarans are faster because they're lighter, they're more stable, they have a wider base, which translates to more efficient use of the energy provided by the wind for several reasons. There are a multitude of reasons why catamarans are generally faster than traditional hulls.
@@tissuepaper9962 look up smitty sled
It's been 2 years Peter. This was awesome. Make a new one!
I like it!
Thanks Pete, the stuff you build reminds me of when I was a kid.
I didn't build anything as large as you do because I was in NYC, and I think the Cops wouldn't like me trying to lift off a very large model plane with collateral damage a possibility.
As far as the sled goes...
Stiffer sled and outriggers should help.
Your projects are a hoot.
I'm so jealous when I look at your workshop!
yet he can still make use of pretty much any household item has has on hand. who needs to buy a box when you can just use the cardboard one that stuff came in.
@TECH 'n ROBO WORKS )
Same here
Love your videos, so PLEASE put a prop guard on there. you fall to the side and that blade will come right for you. I know you are already know that. Great work though.
yes haha, prop gaurd is on order!
I was going to say something similar. glad you have it in hand.
This was exactly what I was thinking too :D sitting like 1ft away from a big ass blade! Looks awesome though!
its amazing that your viewers concern about your safety. it means they want u to stay alive and keep making videos
Ninja Fruit!
I love the production on this video, it is like How To Basic where everything is thrown around in fast-motion. Well done!
it's cool to see younger generations still interested in making things with their hands. I could hang out with this guy all day. nice workshop peter. and hello from a fellow ohioan down in cincinnati
what could possibly go wrong with a prop on an uncontrollable sled in snow
ahahahahahahahaha wonderful
johnny llooddte agreed
That is the first thing that came to my mind. That propeller and rotation rate can be a an exciting trip to the ER as well.
johnny llooddte : suggest a gas powered leaf blower...safer...The Jet Sled!
Haha that was awesome!
the Hacksmith hi I’m a big fan of you and peter
Collab?
Good idea andy
Collab, no balls!
the Hacksmith ii
Colin Furze would have made it jet powered. ;)
Great build though. Thanks for posting.
Yes. And the Hacksmith as well. They both, for some reason, have a love and affinity for anything jet powered.
I love what you make from things laying around! This could be a new sport..
thats a really big spinny boi to have right behind you... I swear, you get crazier every video. Keep it up, but try not to get ded, will ya?
S P I N N Y B O I
BIG BOI
If he dies I claim his skull
Mr. Frogman99 okay i want the brain
Tek Tok deal
Make the bottom heated, it will slide alot bettet as it melts the snow faster than the friction from the sleds base itself
Could just run salt water on it lol
friction will heat it enough
plus it doubles as a seat warmer
Melting snow has always seemed slower to me
Grim Repair when gliding over snow on either a sled or skis or snowboard more hardpacked snow or stiff snow is always better because there’s less friction which makes the sliding better
There was a comercial about 50 years ago where this guy cruises about the roads sitting on the ground and now finally it was invented! Simply amazing!
damn i wonder if they sell these as like a cheap alternative to jetskiis. would be so cool
Like an airboat
With a parachute
Just buy a $2000 used snowmobile and you will have more fun, more speed and more comfort.
All the fun of sledding, without the trouble of climbing the hill again and again--genius
You don't even need hills
11:08 Peter dabbing in 2018
Flatox Sneakiest dab going
My favourite moments are when Peter doesn't know he's being filmed and just responds "wut?"
Imagine crashing and getting your hand, head or face in that prop.
needs a grill to protect from what you are imagining could happen
The prop doesn’t have enough mass to do any real damage
@@dirkdiggler9379 lol.I dare you to put your finger in the prop of my fpv racer at full tilt. TF are you talking about? People have died from less.
BlighBorn 87 lmao like a knee to the neck haha. Just over dose first
Ken Dalke confeahdi
9:35 XD epic friend
IvanGoldBit i
safest contraption ever?
I would put my first born son on it.
i was gonna say that giant open prop on the back? no issues... everything is fine
PeterSripol You have a SON!!!??????::P

When I was young a neighbor in our community had a snow plane, it remains in my fondest memories and here on your channel.
Watching your videos makes me feel like a little boy again and that there IS magic in the world! Keep up the good work!
That's an awesome air sled! :D Nice to see that we have the same ideas - we did the exactly same thing last weekend but used our bathtub sled of course :D
Awesome! cant wait for the video!!! :D
hahaha, auch hier ?Feier eure videos.
U guys have to do a collab :D
the next thing: bathtub airplane :P
2018.1.42
Imagine falling off and the slide flying past you and taking your arm off
I was thinking head...
if they had played it safe THE WRIGHT BROTHERS would have never left the ground.
*wright
Exactly, the world is a touch more safety conscious than the days of the Wright brothers too 🙂 looks like fun, until it isn't
The wright brothers played it fairly safe themselves when it came to the design. they pretty much built it for stability entirely and it was incredibly difficult to turn
You’re a crafty mechanical engineer I like what you do. Your trusty sidekick is a good additive to the show to. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
You are so freaking awesome!!!!
Anyone who watches your videos get invited to develop something.
Congratulations!!!!
but can you build William a house?
Peter, you would make an awesome Dad! Just imagine the looks on the other kid's faces as yours speeds by.
Really enjoy your videos...Keep up the good work
Only a complete idiot would put their kid on that.
@@BenBlackEquinoxEngelhard only a genius would, you would be a bad parent if you didn't
A little 6-year-old kid would go really well on that small-scale setup !!! Need a safety cage on the prop though !!
cool! used to put a hand-held sail on a sled and sail it on ice on highlandtown lake. had fun with that thing.
Ya know... Save that till summer, put some outriggers on it, and you've got a one man airboat!
Love your work as always!
put that set up on a kayak! lol
Good idea!
You have to try taking that thing down a hill!
austiwawa
Up.
austiwawa lol!! I was thinking across water 😂
Put 2 motors on it
Bigger motor, up the hill.
First time ever seeing this channel and as an old buzzard, I'm very impressed ! It's nice to see that at least ONE millennial has the capability to do something with his brain cells and hands besides playing video games in his mother's basement all day ! Side note... Peter, you really need a Tig welder!
Cool video 👌.
As I'm sure you know, welding all the metal parts together is faster, stronger and makes end product weigh less.
You have the greatest constructions ever, Peter. Have you considered a "vehicle" known as a Ground Effect Vehicle? It's effectively a boat with wings that are insufficient to lift it out of ground effect, yet powerful enough to get it clear of the water. Some designs include a hovercraft type skirt to break the friction on the water, allowing for quicker lift-off. The US Coast Guard considers it a boat, while the FAA considers it a boat, because if properly designed, it cannot climb out of ground effect. There are some huge Soviet examples on the 'net but the hobbyist size is more interesting.
His first ultra-light flights were done using that.
The GEV types can't climb out of ground effect, though, by design, even with more power, unlike Peter's great builds thus far.
Fred U. FliteTest did that with a rc plane/boat
I remember that episode, but I'd like to see Peter scale it up to human bean sized, but not as large as the Soviet cargo transporters.
Glad Im not alone. I posted the same thing twice prior. Peter is probably smart like everyone to not read comments
You Should make a Hovercraft! You can upgrade this design into a year-round "air sled"
Good thinking 99!
very cool. I'm very surprised just how well that worked. That prop/motor must be pretty dang powerful !! Can't wait to see Air Sled 2.0 !!
In 1970 I had a neighbor that would take his flat bottom, swan boat out on the farm fields after a freshly fallen snow. It made me laugh with a childlike glee that I just did while watching your video!
Is it just me or are your workshop montages better than asmr.
Anything is better than ASMR.
Great turning on it
Another great project. Man you would not want to tangle with THAT prop. My heart rate jumped when you Nealy capsized. Keep up the good work.
A dual rudder that was half as long but the same height as yours and air foiled before being fiberglassed would likely be more efficient. That's awesome however that you did make it work and you've inspired me once again with you engineering prowess. Keep up the GREAT work!
It seems your aircraft building experience is improving your builds!
LOL .. "" u losss yoouurrr rudderrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!!! "" lol ""Peterrrrr !! ........Hes going to DIE,, OMG !!!""
xD
NoblenessDee
Mit einem Leitwerk aus Segeltuch gäbe es diesen Lacherfolg nicht ;-)
Ok, we tried something similar back when i was young and flexible..my buddy tipped over and the prop hit the ground. You can guess what happened. You must be REALLY good at these projects to still have all your teeth!!! ... Glad your on our side...just sayn... Glad i found your channel!!
3:55 that hard crossed metal bar, i could already feel which part of yours will experience the intense pain when u did an emergency break :P
Omg lol
Very entertaining Peter...living here in the Arizona desert, I've heard of snow but I'm not ready to give up my shorts and sandals to explore. Thanks for sharing. Jim
3 welders disagree the exessive use of bolts
Agreed
Lol
Now a twin engine, differential thrust snow sled.
AEguy Productions or we skip what and go straight to solid fuel rocket thrusters.
Go big or go home.
+Lord Xarflu trans-dimensional alien overlord solid fuel? What is this the Stone Age? Pulse jet or nothing.
Callum Pearce Pulse jet? Do we look like a bunch of hobbyists? RF resonant cavity thrusters are the only way to go.
You should make two and then have races...
Make a friggin prop guard would ya so you dont get hacked to pieces
this is INCREDIBLE!
Hahahaha, that thing is awesome :) Any frozen ponds nearby?
ajw61185 that.would be amazing
there is one but I hate drowning and the cold! ahahaha
get a spud bar or hand auger, if the ice is 4-6 inches its usually safe to walk on. people drive trucks on 12inches of ice..
it would be awesome to run this on ice it would fly, just look into ice fishing safety just in case..
Ehh, you have a life vest, makes it safe xD
Survival suit
Just imagine if you could make this powerful enough to sled up the hill
He rode it up the hill
Were you watching AND listening? Or just staring blankly at a screen?
I’m talking like an actual hill that you would sled on
Airboat
9:07 this part is so amazing
I’m glad you left flite test, your videos are way better and are edited really well. I know you’re still on good terms with them and everything, I just like your content on your own a lot more.
Video suggestion: build a RC ground effect vehicle (e.g. ekranoplan)
I was just about to say that. I second your motion.
I am from the future...
He built it
He did (yes I know this was posted before he did)
That's really amazing. Cool build!
Ok, this is really awesome and would be even cooler to see you attach it to a runner sled and go out on a frozen lake. You would get some crazy speed. Hardly no drag.
Lawn-mowing could actually be fun!
That's totally save, having that prop exposed like that… no worries.
* Before you said it needed a propguard >
Yeah its save
So save
You literally blow my mind with the stuff that you come up with just truly amazing. I really like your videos. Keep up the awesome jobs that you guys are doing 👍👍.... I'm from Sand Lake Michigan 😎
When cutting metal, drop some 3in1 oil on the blade, or ANY OIL, CANOLA ,VEG. ANYTHING. Fast smooth cuts. Great videos!
In a lot of cases you could use rivets vice bolts. Less cost, smaller holes, and easier to apply.
, less likely to vibrate loose.
BUT CAN IT DO THIIIIIIIS?
SldgeHammr probably
James Dallessandro Yes. Is that a JoJo's reference?
You can do anything, if your have a wrench.
*leans back into propeller*
I live my electric making things life vicariously through your videos.
Man you're a super clever person. Very innovative. No one on youtube makes what you make.
Make a rc boat with one
Luke Lancz y i was thinking that too XD
Luke Lancz y an airboat?
Me: Oh, I think I’ll be sledding today,
Peter: Oh, yeah! Me too! I need to go grab mine.
That would be amazing on the ice
This guy blows my mind. I enjoy watching him build anything he makes =3
Awesome build can't wait to see the next vid my suggestion is a lake as long as the snow is not too deep on the ice you would have tons of room to get that thing going fast
great video, awesome project, i would legit buy this
Zewiq I would rather make those..
That is Awsome lol
I'm spending Sunday morning in Perth Western Australia watching your incredible work
Your awsome
Look out Tesla
😊
The comic timing and sound of that breaking rudder...perfect.
Those motors would make a great lift and drive motor for a small hovercraft too. Great job on the video as always !!
EXCELLENT!!
SWEET 4runner!!! I use to have one nearly just like it!
I would have gone with a twin motor system mounted into a fiberglass ice boat design. Something you may wish to consider, look at a classic radio flyer sled. Perhaps you will see what I see...... On a larger scale of course..... Food for thought
PRETTY LIT MY BOIS
9:19 I was wondering when that rudder was going to come off.
Perfect for MN lakes in the winter!
Peter you are a MADMAN Love It!!!! Happy Holidays
I watch petersripol and the hacksmith and your both friends 👍
Next video: adds wings+rocket thrusters, Lets Make it fly!
That thing was one step away from a badass airboat! Video idea right here.
The perfect solution for commuting to work in the winter!

Dude you're taking a chance with an exposed prop spinning behind you like that.
I know, did you see him about fall over right at first. He would have stuck more firmly to the ground while the light sled continued forward and possibly gouging him. No thanks.
You achieve more manoeuvrability from a double rudder configuration, a single rudder mounted in the centre only redirects half the air flow.
the easy way to make one
1. take out you sled
2. attack a leaf blower to it
3. serve while cold (=~=)
