i hate this commie platform! please put your viedos on other platforms this one hates freed omo fspe ech and sensors everything and deserves to be shut down! for being an enimy of the ppl (misspellings on purpose)
What kind of brushless motor are you using
Stop singing, your bad. anything else is good
"Motors in the front, elevators in the back, manual adjustment on my angle of attack." -- These are some bars! Goddamn!
someone call snoop because a star has been born
Yes the lines are really amazing !
Straight Dope right there!
Getting into the groove bro!
“Did I just hit that kid?”
Child just plops it back in the street like nothing happened lol
Probably made the kid's day too. :)
Kid's parents check legal insurance: "Jackpot!"
Kid's a champion
Maybe the kids in the neighborhood are used to planes just dropping out of the sky...
Kid probably thought they were going to get in trouble if anyone saw what happened
Imagine if Peter Sripol, Ramy RC, and rctestflight would coordinate with each other and come up with a beautiful monster of a creation
Peter Sripol made an epic ekranoplan combined with that controller it would work even better
I dont think if you combined those people anything would improve, they are all awesome... it would be like having 3 amazing quality pens 🖊 like... you can only use one at a time and they all do the same job haha
Would probably result in a home made 777 piloted on ardupilot.
RcLifeOn + Peter Sripol + Ramy + Tom Stanton + rctestflight = ww3
@@euphoricalien8605 no, you would need to add William osman or Micheal reeves for that
"manual adjustment on my angle of attack" rap verse had me dying! Sometimes it's the little things that make these videos just that much better. The effort put in is appreciated!
I never realized until today I need more RC mumble rap in my life
I realised the opposite
@@thegodemperorofmankind7yea704 yeah, the music was utter shit
@@leestons that’s the joke
Jokes can be told too often
Me 2.
i did not expect that soundtrack 😂😂😂
Lovin' the "Concrete Ocean" autotune song!
It’s crazy how just normal hobbyists at home can make things that would be considered borderline magic or super classified military spy tech not too long ago.
It won’t be too long until teens are casually building space drones and launching meme satellites and shit.
I'm thinking about how soooo illegal this would be in Canada.
We can hope bro.
There are youtubers who aren't far off reaching space, with an unmanned rocked mind, but still impressive.
11:14 In order to damp the bouncing up and down, you could probably use a PD or PID controller instead of a P controller in the altitude range where the throttle is decreased. In other words, make the throttle not only a function of altitude, but also of how quickly the altitude is increasing or decreasing.
Love that you're delving more into the hacky flight controller stuff. We've all mastered building cool airframes in the RC hobby it seems, so the next frontier is mastering the electronics. At least IMO. Keep it going man!
That's so true for me as well. Have been through all of basic rc planes and Helis, it's now about mastering the f765s and pixhawk oranges 😁

dRehmflight would be optimal for Ekranoplan 2.0 with elevator
The Russians have already beat this technology into everything it could possibly develop into, then moved on to better things.
@@tropicthndr are you talking about in R/C? Or are you talking about in aviation? Because you can’t compare home r/c builders to government funded organizations. And we have you beat there, too
Thanks Daniel! Super fun to film with y’all!
Thank you for the awesome footy!
That soundtrack is pure genius. Translating the physical into music. It would be amazing for a whole video in the same format.
Me: I want to listen to Logic!
Mom: We have Logic at home...
*Logic at home*
Came for the cutting edge RC, stayed for the tunes🤣
FINALLY. BEEN WAITING FOR AN ACTUAL GOOD RC AUTONOMOUS GROUND EFFECT BUILD FOR YEARS!
Well I've seen a few. Peter Sripol made one I think.
@@nesyboi9421 yeah but not autonomous. His (and the others) were all entirely manual.
@@MerlinsFury true, it is pretty cool. I'd love to see a fully autonomous version of this though
@@nesyboi9421 Indeed
We should demand that all DITH-camrs rap while narrating their videos.
It makes them 1,000,000% better.
Any creators making custom tracks for their video gets my instant sub. It's so good.
that's a weird way to spell "worse"
#DoNotUnmute
actually not..
Dude. This is the first video I watched of yours, came up in recommended cause I'm a drone enthusiast. But let me tell you when I hit the subscribe button...when the song hit. I love that you just threw in what is obviously another interest of yours into the video with no explanation or apology. Super creative, fun, funny. Awesome. Keep going dude.
Shooting LIDAR 🎼🎵🎶 hiti'n Car.....Lovely
Totally my favorite part!
Love smart people
just when i think this channel cannot be better, an ekranoplan song
Several years ago I (a software engineer with no aerospace engineering experience and only basic calculus knowledge) started a project to build my own flight control software in Kerbal Space Program using the kOS mod to see how fast I could learn. I got to the point where I began introducing my PID loops but I think I was trying to do too much at the same time. My goal seemed simple: given a fixed point on the ground, circle that position at a specified altitude, speed and radius, in a halo pattern, kind of like what an AC-130 gunship might do in popular video games. I tried getting the speed/throttle loop dialed in first, but had a very hard time zeroing in on the correct parameters. I learned a whole lot, but eventually got overwhelmed and put it down. More videos like this might help give me the confidence to pick that project back up and give it another, more educated try.
Good work rossashadrone! Always nice to see content creators I follow working together 🙌
Awesome work! and the songs are so cool 😄
Thanks Ramy! Big fan of your videos
I get how the songs solve a lot of problems for video making and narrative. It's a really good solution, except I can't stand that particular musical style. Am I just getting old? My vision sure has been changing the last couple years.
hey cool ramy schaut auch rctestflight. grüße aus frankfurt am main!
@@DogmaFaucet mumble rap? Not sure though, somebody else in the comments wrote that this was RC mumble rap :)
aaaiiiaaarr fiiiish
1:11 "That brings us to 2021!"
*drops chip.
Who else tried to find this comment

It’s not often a video exceeds expectations, this one does 👌
I love how much fun you have with your interesting projects!
I can't get over the rapping. You have to release an album..
Nah
It’s shit sorry
Lol caught me off guard, "these lyrics are kinda relevant that's cool he found a song that fits so well ... wait a minute"
@@redsquirrelftw exact same thing went through my mind 😅😅
I fucking love these custom songs for your videos!
I'm feeling the magic ingredient for getting cool things done here - FUN !!!
As well as knowledge and skill, focus and perseverance. And . . . collaboration for sure. Loving everything you guys do, keep on!
I came for the ground effect....but stayed for the music. A+ man.
This guy knows his stuff. An enjoyable combination of creativity displayed through engineering and art!
You and your friends are killing it Daniel... I've been a huge fan since the first installments of solarplane v1, and if I've been enjoying rc for msyelf these last years it's probably thanks to people like you and Samm making me plunge into it... but these last videos are just next level, the collab-ey vibes with Colin's mixes, your friends and the ads, the more technical side of things... Thank you. This is really excellent content.
There's something magical about ground effect vehicles. Beautiful piece of film.
Great vid as always, showing the failures and successes. Having watched so many previous vids, I see that line of trees in the test field and think: DANGER!
Ground effect is most strong within a half wingspan in altitude. Making it bigger would be interesting to get a bit more distance from the ground!
I think a little more wingspan may help reduce the twitchiness too, I've suggested some angled winglets. The bigger the air cushion volume the more support it will have, hopefully damping out some instability. Real ekranoplans have a lot of mass but also a lot of lift IGE.
these musics you are making.... brilliant :D
You are the man, I have never seen anything better ever than yours, start to finish.you have figured it out. I want one!!!
9:07 RCtestflight, Truck Daddy, Ross-has-a-Drone and Sebastian REMIX!!! Love it!
Idk why but I really like that design not gonna lie
Revolutionary on many levels, including the soundtrack.
4:01 hehe never ceases to amaze me ... what was once used to make the f 117 fly is now available for everyone lol
Amazing quality vid, must have taken ages to make. Love the songs, keep them coming
The music just gets better and better.
We need full songs! That was just too hilarious :D
Best rc vid ever. I'm designing one of these right now for water but a amphibious craft is awesome
RCTestFlight, the only RC channel with bespoke songs about the planes!
"foam board, hot glue, software by sebastian" hahaha
Keep up the great work man
Dude when the song kicked in- omg - I just held my mouth and laughed. Brilliant
Those songs cracked me up. Always awesome content!
This channel is a reminder to me that there's people out there smarter than me and a reminder for me that if i pick a slightly different option than i take now, this could've been my life
channelling the 10 hundred feels with the custom song :)
Ekranoplan = Crushed it! 💯
Rhymes = Crushed it! 💯
Boat hull design = 🙄😬🙈 TBD
Seriously though, this is awesome! It shows that while hull design isn't your thing, everything is. I definitely want to see you come back with an amazing boat. Remember, legend has it bananas are bad luck for boats.
He should 3d print a hull and then fibreglass coat it
Kid on the Sidewalk = Chrushed it! xD
Great vid, the music, and the lyrics man. Brings a tear to my eye. Tears of joy and laughter.😂
LOL, the custom music tracks are just awesome! To an all new level Daniel!
Is banjis whole album going to drop, or just the single? Great video Daniel.
Not sure how many creators actually spend time building their own projects like this and on top of that producing and singing his own music and voice overs. Now that is down right groovy! 😎🤘
This video is awesome, but the custom music just took things to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL!
these rctestflight originals are getting fire!!!
So whens the song release on spotify?
Would you be able to measure the strength of the ground effect with two pressure sensors (top & bottom)?
"Caution: Truck makes wide turns"
"RC LiDar Craft: Oh yeah? Watch this!"
"What happened to your car man?"
"I was driving in SoDo and I got hit by a frickin' drone, and then got hit by another."
"Was it those Amazon Air guys?"
"If only. I would sue those guys till they bled. Turns out it was just a bunch of drone nerds."
That was a nicely clean miata in the background
I do really appreciate your hardwork . Splendid masterpiece mate...
I used to come here for all the innovation and the great content. Now I need to hear the glorious music
I love the custom music. Keep it up.
Music is as kool as the plane , thanks dude!
It flies so smoothly
Fantastic design! I started wondering about incorporating in an elevator with LIDAR...and was typing that but you then answered just as I was typing. LOL. Hope you get a chance to explore that. Super inspiring project!
OK now this is cool. And actually surprised at how well a simple height-thrust curve works.
I would've gone straight to PID (more complicated is more better right? right???)
Yeah it's fun to see it oscillate up and down over the ground but I think specially a derivative term would help a lot
Using the throttle for alt control is not really the way to go. Throttle response is way too sluggish, the motors take time to spin up the props and increase thrust and the airspeed, which leads to a lag in the altitude response by the f/c and causes the aircraft to gallop. There’s no way the f/c can preemptively throttle up the motors in time for the upcoming the decrease in altitude regardless of the PID settings, it can’t see into the future, and so will always be a second or two behind the game due to the slow thrust response.
Seattle local here, immediately recognized North Seattle College at 1:56 haha
Fascinating. Can't wait for the elevator control video.
WHAT IS THIS FIRE PLAYING OVER THE MONTAGES
I'm waiting for the follow up song: I got her holding me 1 foot off the ground, as I spin around and round.
Holy shit these videos are impressively good. The custom music is pretty sick as well.
It’s the song for me bro 😂 love the creativity in this video.
Awesome stuff! I wonder if having a rear elevator and a canard elevator linked together might work better? Another approach could be to do a heavier plane flying much faster which would be more tolerant of turbulence.
Could you implement a propellor in the reverse direction with separate throttle control to possibly add air speed control?
Daniel! Been a fan since 2009! Man, it’s awesome to see you still doing this!! God bless, Bro, and keep laying that shit down!!
Preciated balsa wood 🪵
It was great watching you progress
This new Bladee album is BOPPIN.
How about controlling the inclination of the propeller plane? Also having them blow more under the wings would increase ground effect.
Im an electrical engineer, and those guys who make stuff like this fascinate me. Funny how I respect hand crafty people, specially barbers, they are just so skillful. Sadly I don't have the means nor the time to embarke in a journey of learning stuff like this. However I will do one day. I'll be very handy and crafty.
Better rhymes than we hear on the radio! Goes to show you its all about the marketability and not about talent or ability.
God I love the songs and the moderation and editing and aaaah
You're missing one thing: gyroscope.
The thing with proximity is it only measure the height but not the momentum. You hit the minimum height with already too much downward momentum, it's a bit too late.
Imagine if it can start throttling as soon as it start going downward from ideal height, and otherwise.
Gyroscope ... You mean accelerometer ?
They don't need a gyroscope nor an accelerometer... basic physics :
- Position
- Speed
- Acceleration
They have the position, a simple derivative give them the speed..
Getting the speed form acceleration is not as easy nor accurate.
"Imagine if it can start throttling as soon as it start going downward from ideal height"
Okay but ... they already know when it gets downard because they have the lidar. What's missing them is what is the perfect spot
@@crationis Perfect spot is way to many milliseconds before to take an action. You have to predict, not react, in which gyroscope is better due to much lower input lag.
@@Pawel.N But your gyroscope is useless to predict anything with a plane flying at a constant pitch...
And if there is any variation of angle, they are way to small to be measured accurately, making it imprecise and thus completely unusable if you want to integrate it to know the vertical speed
@@crationis Maybe few gyros on farthest sides of plane?
@@Pawel.N Oh please....
A gyroscope mesures variations of angle
What would its position change ?.....
Awesome job man you're a proper engineer!
Incredible drone cam scenes and of course good job on the plane!😎
Hahaha those songs are so meta I was smiling the whole fligjt
The music and positive comments about it assure me that I'm being tortured in Room 101 of the Ministry of Love.
The songs are absolutely ace dude
Dude your tracks are so awesome
DUde....PLEASE do more songs! XD
what I'm really hearing is. "we need to make a bigger Ground Effect Vehicle."
that drone chase cam just sick! DAMN
All-ways look forward to your videos. I think I’m almost through the back log. Very 😎
So the big question is: Can we find that song on SPOTIFY? If not just publish it with CDBaby
Upload more often!!!
I'm almost certain I suggested this under your video or one of the other ekranoplane videos on TH-cam. (without naming a measurement method, of course.) - Nice to see this in action.
you are genious mate. guys like you will invent all the stuff were able to buy in the future
What makes this the “air effect”, instead of merely a plane that is controlled to stay near the ground??
That's where the Ground Efect hangs out...
:-)
@@RogerBarraud I have since learned, that drag e.g. from wing vortices is much lower if you simply stay in that region. There's a beautiful illustration involving birds in this vid th-cam.com/video/_Cq0ffFiJUY/w-d-xo.html
