At 20:00 you describe something similar to a helicopter’s “dead man’s curve” really well. I’m super impressed by everything about this.
Collab already!!!
Destin please do a collab
Hello SmarterErevryDay !!
Hey it's the Laminar Flow Man!
Destin, nice to see your comments on same videos I see :) Love you! Cheers from Kiev, Ukraine :)
This is the type of content TH-cam was made for. Hats off to you brother 10/10 on bravery
Remember when the coolest thing on youtube was that one video of an rc f15 with a real jet engine in like 2008?
For sure!
Yep surprised that he is still able to walk around with those huge granite balls hanging between his legs.
@Miles Doyle Did you just copy paste the bible or something?
So true dude so very true
As a general aviation and experimental pilot, mad respect dude! I’m IMPRESSED! 😊
How did that plane have enough lift for his titanium cajones!!??? Brave dude.
I'm a rc helicopter and airplane pilot. I too grew up tinkering and building. Everything about this project and the ideas here are super impressive. Very glad this was successful for you and the people involved that made it possible. Great work
I too am a 75 year old RC Helicopter and airplane pilot. You have a great future before you and glad to see you using S.T.E.M. Wish more young people follow your lead.
I love how this guy basically trusted his life in glue and his DIY talents
Balls
@TILEN FABE Nono definitely a lot of balls
@TILEN FABE have a little fun! :p
So where is the permit to build that
TILEN FABE Stop ruining what is obviously a joke.
This is amazing
It surprises me that this comment only has 31 likes. Love your videos man.
Ja.
Hey could you do a video on the F-15? There’s a ton of history with that plane, and it would mean a lot because it’s my dad’s plane. If not that’s cool too.
@@Nebunie probably because he placed 2 comments. The other one is more interesting
@Miles Doyle What are you doing? Man posting a whole bible in here. Post something usefull or dont post at all
Low altitude and slow speed flying looks good especially for leisure / hobby flying. Imagine flying this as a safari over the plains of Africa.
Quite impressed by the final build, especially how stable it looked you're flying the aircraft! You are an inspiration for young people who have a desire to experiment but might not now how to get started and in what field. Keep up the good work. Congrats!!!
Let’s be honest he’s living everyone’s dreams
It's a field of dreams...
No baseball team tho.
Yes omg thanks for the like
😂
Ah, no thanks, my stomach doesn't like flying.
Not really my dream but sorta a bit
Actually yes, I've wanted to do something like this ever since I was 10 years old-still do!
We were just talking about you in our house today wondering if a new video was coming out soon! Look at your timing!!! Amazing 😁

This is really impressive. Your talent and acute ingenuity are perfectly matched to your determination and confidence in your capacity. The courage to fly your creation comes as a natural consequence to you, but actually is something to be admired. Overall, your humble attitude denotes a maturity beyond your age. You most certainly are already making your family proud. We cannot even imagine what you will be capable of doing in the next 30 years. May you live long and show the way to those you will keep on inspiring. The planet needs more people like you.
I absolutely love this,my favorite diy home built ever,good job man.

This guy's literally a genius everytime casually making flights and testing for granted look at this man no parachute with, it's a first electronic flight I've seen which is also homemade
I've now seen youtubers making electric planes, jetpacks, self landing rockets, doing genetic engineering, and all on youtube budgets... This is a really cool time to be alive.
Thats just very very real my dear friend, the human has started to become more intelligent, the scientific stuffs that everyone it used to see so hard to apply, now can be easly fast to find and to build. There are a lot of cheap, strong and lightweight materials!
You said well:

I'm looking at 70 next year. But I really enjoyed watching this. It reminds me how much fun flying ultra lights (weedhopper's, rally II, even a bi-wing, etc on our family farm with my brothers has been. You learn, have fun, and expand your knowledge. Great video, descriptions, and your thought process was all great. I wish you well in all your endeavors. I feel renewed that your generation does have some practical thinkers out there.
Thank you for your comment, it touched my heart just reading it. Though I'm only 40 it reminded me a lot of when I was a teenager.
Every generation has tinkerers, that's how tech advanced so much

Bro just casually made a cesna-172
My grandpa lost his pilots licence 6 years ago. If i could just have the old body if one of your aeroplanes I could fix it up for him.
*I love the Dihedral wing shape! Very stable!*
Peter never seems to lack his crazy dangerous ideas
Not Really crazy, he's a model builder, so he builds using standard construction practices and designs. Full size plane plans are shrunk down to build models, and small models of full size aircraft are built to test designs. Most plans scale up and down easily, and Peter builds to FAA rules and guidelines for homebuilt aircraft.
Real men (engineers) take risks.

Is it Peter if it’s not dangerous?

As a man who struggles to put up shelves straight, I have unbounded admiration for you!
@Miles Doyle shut up
"Straight" shelves are a myth. Don't believe the hype.
@@DevilsDiscretionAdvised Well done for missing, what was quite obviously, a joke! You might be able to put up shelves "correct", but you don't seem to be able to read or write properly.
@@Stoatfacelanust Because I am not an English teacher nor do I give two shits about grammar or reading every perfect little punctuation if Siri spells it wrong or puts it in correctly that’s not my problem
@@DevilsDiscretionAdvised But Siri doesn't read for you does it? Literally my first my three words were "As a man..." yet you ask if I was an adult. hahaha....You don't have to be an English teacher to be able to read that fella.
This is gotta be the simultaneously the funniest and coolest thing I’ve ever seen 😂😂 There’s just something hysterical about seeing a guy in an airplane with his legs hanging over the side and thinking “that shit ain’t gonna fly” and then he takes off into the sky like he’s a seasoned pilot
This just popped up yesterday and l surely have enjoyed watching this coming together then flying so well. Congratulations on your successful project.

@@jakemaristan4401 yyyy
is not aircraft
Is aircrap
Basically my flight instructor throughout my entire training: You never want to be low and slow
Peter: I actually kinda prefer flying low and slow
Has you instructor ever flown an Ultralight ?
Peter's airplane is designed to fly low and slow.
Remind your instructor that every plane flies low and slow. It is called landing. Perfect landing is to stall the plane simultaneously to reaching zero altitude.
@@carolynmiles9281 if you're flying an approach even when there's no landing strip in front of you, you might be doing something wrong.
@@ChucksSEADnDEAD the first part of my comment was a joke. The deal with most ultra lights is that the cruise speed and landing speed are not that far apart. I cant remember the model, but I remember one where the cruise speed was 40 and the landing speed was 25.
Your videos are always fun and educational , you have a brilliant mind and a great outlook on life, thank you Peter.
I like how Peter took these projects to That level. Awesome.
let's all appreciate how he looked both ways before crossing the road in the second flight ( 14:56 )

@@f.b.lagent1113 😂
He should have used flex tape
Lol
It must be cool to fly so high, whilst being able to lay back and relax because there isn't a huge engine right behind your back.
well, at very very high altitudes, there isnt much oxygen, but yeah since u are probably talking about maybe 500-1000m yeah it would be cool
Until your battery is low and you fall out of the sky
@@t-dogracingandoffroad3198 haha 😆. But yeah, he has sensors. He knows how much battery is left
Yh because the engine is at the front
@@t-dogracingandoffroad3198 Fixed wings don't just drop out of the sky as soon as the engine cuts. Especially with a design like this one, they're very forgiving. Your worst enemy on a deadstick landing is actually picking your emergency landing spot.
Great job. Great to see it fly and you are a Genius.
Wow this is the kind of stuff that should be trending like every where, incredible, you are really something man keep up the great work
Can we refer to this ultralight as "The Red Baron?"

Good job son. I'm an 80 yrs old retired bush pilot. I'm old school and would rather be flying a Legal Eagle with combustion or electric power. I trust the tubular air frame. Also would prefer a pusher like a Kolb. Be less high speed bugs in your mouth. Safer prop area and better ground clearance. I'm intriged about your cover material. I built a composite called the Rand's KR2 great little plane. Keep on trucking and stay safely rational as you are. You will live longer. 😅😅 Dandahermit
till this day flying is still make people awe...imagine how people react back then when wright brothers fly for the first time...
seeing a plane is still epic

Why, for what
@@LonelyGoblin07 Because he can't do an aileron or barrel roll without flaps, duh! >:P
Lol
LordDragox412 you are right

Hearing the motor while in flight, it sounds like a supercharger!
this is great stuff. The battery fire elephant in the room terrifies me! great to see the more relaxed rules in the US re experimental aircraft vs UK.
Boeing: “We can’t make electric planes” a random dude on the internet: “Today, we are going to be making our own electric airplane.”
Boeing can't make electric planes because they make huge planes either for cargo or passengers and sadly electric isn't as powerful as jet fuel
The energy potency is much higher in gas than a battery. If you magically turn all the power from a battery into it's equivalent in gas, it would be much less. You can take much less room and weight, or you can go electric. However, I do wonder why they don't use solar panels on the large planes as they would be right up there with the sun as they cruise above the clouds. That might help IDK but it's still not allot and it's an inconsistent variable. Just trust the experts.
@@St.Raptor it's due to heat
@@ksx861 Oh ok I knew there was a variable I wasn't thinking of.
Guys come on he wasn’t being that serious 😅
I love how every part and proportion screams im an RC plane especially the motor , but the size is like : Nope!
You are a legend! Love the videos of mk4, especially your proud dad helping out.
Fantastic job! Reminds me of a Peck-Polymers' Pietenpol Air Camper model my dad built when I was a little kid. Keep up the experimentation and creativity! Great video!

@@silvergold1417 there are plenty of great startups out there focusing on this sort of thing. Especially here in California. I can’t imagine some one wouldn’t pick you up after seeing this. Yes off course engineering is the best discipline and degree because it allows you so many opportunities.
can I ask, as a mechanic, can you have tell your engineer buddies to stop putting lumps of plastic in front of important parts on machines that need fixing, and putting all the screws on the left back side corner where the screw drivers, wrenches, and ratchets don't fit? thanks! 🤣

Good to know im not the only person who's logic has ceased to exist in amazement!
it's certainly cool but it's better to fly on it with a parachute
Bro is 45💀
Insanely illegal unless you’re in a place where they don’t care.
Did that back in 1990 with a group of friends and local flyers. We don't have it as good as Americans, so the entire construction was supervised by authorities.

You could learn how to build one and build one later
Yup i do to

What's stopping you?
(It does not have to be full-scale or even fly)
Cheers,
we used to fit spoilerons on top of the outer wing which acted just like ailerons. which would give you full 3 axis control. great build!
are those similar to wing fins but they are on top of the main wing, like an extra wing but an aileron instead.
@@bjboss1119 No, they are basically a flat plate covered with the same material as the wing about 4"x 2' or so hinged by sewing to the wing along the front and placed at the highest point of the wing profile. they are pulled up like a air brake. this spoils the lift on that wing causing it to drop and so you have a bank. the airflow keps the spoileron against the wing during normal flight
oh yeah, cool!
my grandpa used to convert civilian cars to gas during ww2 while the oil was used by the military

Yeah want more info on the batteries.
I'm assuming he used a similar set-up from the first electric plane. He's not made of money...but maybe he managed to snag a new set-up
