  • World's Smallest Radio Controlled Model Airplane? I built this 1.5 inch wingspan Super Sub Micro R/C model airplane over 5 years ago.

    Amazing achievement! I still think I have the world's smallest EDF engines on my 1:100 A330 using the actual plastic parts of a plastic display kit to make up the cfm fans on the smallest brushed motors I could find (3mm) in foam turned nacelles on 1 cell with a simple ultra micro Rx. Still perfecting the flight but it's a flyer for sure. I am loving the challenge of ultra and hyper micro RC, the challenges are numerous but it's all worth it when these little things fly. Love the diorama - you're a true hobbyist and innovator.

      I think saw your 1:100 scale A330 on R/C groups, a great model. I built a 4.5- inch twin ducted fan A-10 a few years back. It used 10mm fans? You can find my thread on it on R/C groups. I need to make a new video on it.

Perhaps it is time to revisit the plane of my youth, and do it in electric ... about as small as old eyes and hands will allow. ...lol .

      @hstrinzel 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Amazingly enough, at such a small scale and weight things don't break that easily. Some sort of physics factor where paper would be stronger than steel in dropping. Have you ever seen a cockroach or an ant break its leg when falling off a table? But if an elephant falls off a bridge, a LOT will break. (Does anyone know which named physics principle that is where lightweight small things don't break when crash-landing?) Small is beautiful here.

      But that totally makes sense when you said that it's so tiny it has it's own physics and it doesn't break. That's incredible. I wouldn't have guessed that. Until I read the comment I figured that,
      that was half the battle to getting it fly. I imagined how frustrating it must have been to always be having to fix it. But I guess not.
      Such I cool little...well tiny build. So impressive.
      I probably speak for a lot of people that requested a video showing more of "how it works" more specifically the tiny electronics and that control it. Most of us didnt think anything that tiny to make it possible even existed, which is why we're so curious.

Antony was one of the most feared pilot in the great war. He continued to do shoot down more planes when one plane from the Canadian Air Squadron shot down his plane.

      @ethanpoole3443 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You could, but you would get far less runtime, though much faster recharge times. Super capacitors don’t have nearly the energy density of a typical battery. We have a good ways to go before supercapacitors could genuinely match a battery in terms of size, weight, and energy density, but they do have their own advantages where those three are not primary concerns and where you are not concerned about the tremendous variation in voltage capacitors exhibit under discharge versus typical batteries (where the discharge curve is typically over a much narrower voltage range, such as the 1.2V down to 0.8V for a NiMH or NiCd cell, over nearly the battery’s full output curve, where the voltage typically only drops off precipitously for the final percent, or so, of the battery’s full watt-hour or watt-second, or joule, capacity).
