- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- Well the wings are now done! so far the max weight of the beast is 180 (no powerplant) this kinda sucks as I think I'll be getting right up to 230 for take off :( Still beats the 500Lbs the aviation forums keep saying hahahaha

You're so close!!!
the Hacksmith sup
the Hacksmith cool to see you watch the same stuff on TH-cam as me, considering I already watch you and love your builds
the Hacksmith haha you should make a giant blimp next
Darya Bitsadze wrong type of video to be advertising this on
Nick Fury I don't know, people around here may be pretty lonely
Everyone is like "you have to build it out of carbon and aluminium and you have to make these and these safety tests"
And he is like "i dont give a f*ck i gonna build it out of styrofoam and take a parachute with me"
He probably won't even take a parachute so...
Maybe just an airbag.
what is the gofundme for that
people saying to make it out of aluminum are really stupid because it is a ultralight it is meant to be make of either wood or strong foam so they actually are under there weight limit.
Joshua Urbany yes the go fund me is for his parachute
Please put a bushing in the ends of your square aluminum tubes where you pass a bolt thru so when tightening it doesn't crush the tube . Without it when you tighten bolt, tube may deform inward on loading then bolt would loosen up. Maybe you did this and I didn't catch on video. Otherwise quite impressed with all you fabricating skills.
He has quite large bolts that should be able to distribute the force well, also I think he has "self-locking" bolts.
Agree that wood/plastic inserts are necessary to prevent the tubes from crushing.
its just like building a foamy r/c. just bigger. thats how he is able to do it lol
Foamies don't matter when they break. Big deal, you get some duck tape out. Broken limbs... Well not so easy to repair. You're comparing standards against 2 different things, like a toy RC car vs a real car with traction control, ABS braking, computer controlled dampening (the really cool electromagnetically adjustable shocks is what I was referring too), etc. Toy car, sometimes have suspension, and usually the wheels are made of foam... So yeah, not the same. Don't make a real car based on the toy!
I agree, bushings are a excellent idea.
Watching you on flight test for a while Peter. I'm enjoying this series, and wish you all the luck.
Please avoid dying!
he'll try to avoid dying
I think he is the best TH-camr
3 Scott Brothers he is the best builder on TH-cam. He's so entertaining when he builds new things. I love it.
I suggest you make a bubblewrap safety suit when you fly this.
and take up some improvised shotgun shells just for fun
Myth busters proved it 🤷♂️
We don’t need safety
the puppy has grown sooooo much! the plane did too :)
I don't know what's growing faster, the ultralight or Toby?
Hahahhaha
Hey there, I've been flying since I was fourteen, hang gliders, ultralights, general aviation singles and twins, also an AP mechanic with an Inspection Authorization or IA. I'm 57 now and still just as crazy, about being safe ha ha though some of my friends think I'm crazy, from what I've seen of the build it looks good, I especially like the wire cut foam for the wings. As far as the nylock style fasteners they are not a problem, been flying the same ultralight for twenty seven years, it's now an experimental light sport category aircraft, and I use these fasteners exclusively because there cheap and the don't come off on their own, I use a three times on three times off and toss them out or if you can't turn them on to the bolt by hand through the plastic lock ring, there fine. As for vibration, well if you can see the instrument panel you'll be ok, but if it's shaking so bad that you can't, obviously there's something amiss.
Never have needed any thead lock unless its engine related or a critical airframe component the requires its use.
Only on my rc helos, I use that stuff on or my other flying projects, like full size helicopter and gyrocopter.
Just be aware that flying an ultralight is no different than flying a full-size aircraft. When your butt is in the pilots seat, you can't just shake it off and tape up your busted what ever. Not to be morbib but I've lost friends over the years because of lack of training, maintenance, of just saying hey watch this. It usually does not end well.
Good rule of thumb is make up a test plan.
AC90-89B pertains to amateur and ultralight flight testing.
Weight and Balance (this is so important, if it not correct the plane may not lift off at all or on the other hand may take off with out any warning and become completely uncontrolable, this little detail can at best wreck the plane and scab you up or at worst destroy the craft and kill you). You really need to know the numbers for the airfoil and especially for a biplane arrangement, and if their offset from each other.
Ground handling
Taxi testing / including fast taxis to discover low speed behavior prior to lift off.
etc.
Always test on a windless day. Early morning or evening around here.
Perform short hops first. Don't try to force the machine to fly.
There are lots of other tidbits so read what all you can. And get training even if your already a pilot. I've watched an airline pilot test fly an ultralight and had an engine out situation. Not realizing he could have made the field he opted to drop into a field of berries all supported by 6x6 posts and heavy wire rope. Cost him his career and six months in the hospital and therapy for a year. It almost cost him his life. Seatbelt dam near cut him in two.
My favorite is: Maintain thy airspeed, least thee ground rise up and smite thee.
If you have questions I'd be willing to answer any you may have.
Safety is no accident.
Brad.
What kind of ultralights
Edit did you fly a ultraflight lazair
Not only have you documented your progress on the plane. You are documenting the growth of your pupper, look how big he is now!
bro i wish i found this channel sooner this is dope as heck watching someone build a plane
*_Everyone's_* videos are leading up to their deaths, if you think about it.
deep
MisterTalkingMachine It leads up to their deaths, but it might not be the cause of their death
Now now.. Lets lighten up a little bit, shall we?
MisterTalkingMachine I'm not sure if I understood you. But... Well, I make electronics diy videos in Portuguese (because I'm from Brazil) and I was almost killed Wednesday last week. A sob robber entered here and tried to kill me in 4 different ways, including step on my neck and giving me a blow on the head with a hammer (that, luckily, only hurt my ear - I took several stitches, lost a lot of blood, but I'm alive and well). So... I can't see the relation. (Please, don't think I'm somehow 'offended' by your comment. Absolutely not the case. I really think it's an interesting topic!)
Caraaalho cara, que bad isso.... Onde voce mora? Você ta bem?
Did you just get out of bed some random day and the first thing you said was : “I’m gonna build an ultralight” ?
No
if i had the money i cant say i wouldnt do the same haha
Building this cost you less than going to the bar 4 saturdays in a row.
Stop making excuses for not following through on your dreams.
huh? how much do you spend at the bar each saturday
StopaskingformynameTH-cam You sir have a drinking problem
1 g static load on the wings would be the MTOW of the aircraft along the wings, which is you, motors, fuel, and the weight of the plane itself. So if the aircraft is 350lbs maximum take off wieght (plane, cargo, passengers, fuel...), you need more weight to simulate 2G.
32x20=640. 370x2=740, so 20 boxes is less than 2Gs.
*builds literal flying airplane that could kill him* "yeah i dont know what im doing"
no he will not get killed
He know what he is doing.. God bless him..
He’s so brave to just be like “I’m just gonna build a styrofoam plane fly it, no big d. This is a learning experience for me” I’m such a huge fan I am so excited when I see another episode!!!
Now it looks like a plane!

Peter, I think you're exactly the right guy to be building this plane. I thoroughly enjoy how you're going about it. Can't wait to see you and your plane lift off the ground for the first time!
As an A&P and pilot - your g-loading is all wrong...you need to support the fuselage to test the wing to fuselage structure as well as the wing joints, rigging, structure, etc. You're looking for the weak link in the whole structure. Better to break it on the ground than a couple hundred feet up where the BRS does no good...When you calculate your g-load it needs to be at the MAXIMUM GROSS TAKE-OFF WEIGHT. Your wings need to support the full weight of the complete aircraft under load, not just your additional weight.
So if you're planning on a 370 pound gross weight, then 1g will be 370 lbs. of weight. 2.5g will be 925 lbs. You should test to at least 3g which is 1110 lbs, but in reality 4g (1480 lbs.) to 4.5g (1665 lbs.) for safety margin. The reason you support the fuselage is to test the wing to fuselage connection along with the remainder of the wing structure.
Do not use thread lock on the bolts. The fiber stop nuts are fine as designed. Any other bolt that would require loc-tit should have a castellated nut and cotter pin or aircraft grade safety wire. Look at Advisory Circular AC 43.13-1B - Acceptable Methods, Techniques, and Practices - Aircraft Inspection and Repair. It has almost all the information you're looking for.
Peter, please redo you load test as described by hogflyer62. Having it sitting upside down with no load on the wings is equivalent to roughly zero G not 1G as you stated since the wing structure was only supporting the weight of the wings (negligible). You need to support only the fuselage and load the wings the with the gross weight multiplied by the number of G's you want to test. Ideally at least 4. I am a licensed mechanical engineer and a private pilot. Please message me if I can help.

Nerd he dont give a f**k about that and he understand that,he wanna build hes own so dont judge him
I believe his loading constraint adequately tests the wing spars and lift truss except the top wing spar/cabane attachment which could be separately analyzed. I also believe he subtracted the wing weight from the 2.5 g calculation to arrive at the total load of 640 lbs (20 boxes weighing 32 lbs each) which is appropriate. His description is off or at least confusing but I'm guessing his pilot weight is about equal to the wing weight so using only the empty weight of the plane, 254 lbs (the Part 103 limit), 2.5 g's is 635 lbs.

Great video, really cool that you kept it so light.
Chris McAtee. Should he put safety wire on the turnbuckles too? On the wings?
Absolutely. Or the appropriately sized MS21256 clip.
Hey Peter, maybe I missed it but do you have a copy of AC 43.13-1b?
www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/advisory_circulars/index.cfm/go/document.information/documentID/99861
This ^^^. No threadlocker with nylocks, castle nuts, or safety-wired hardware.
I would also bush the bolt holes. But... welding a bushing into metal that's already bonded to foam isn't high on my list of things that I would find fun or productive....
No locktite on nylon locknuts.
What's with all the Negative Nancy's? Think positively! To paraphrase Burt Reynolds, "Of COURSE he's gonna make it! He ain't never NOT made it before, has he?" 😉👍🏼
Safety wire is what rockets use. There are even videos right here on YT showing you how to use it. NASCAR teams often drill their own safety wire holes.
I'm always looking forward to your next videos
despite the ongoing music crisis, any song that you play would be associated with happy feelings to me.
Peter you are the only channel I have ever turned notifications on for. I literally stress over this. But can't wait to see it. I'll be praying for you and wish you nothing but success. When you take off just stay calm and do your job!
It sounded like you don't want to put wires on the tail. However, I'd suggest putting ones on anyway, simply because I've seen even model planes loose their rudder as gets more aerodynamic force than most people expect. Wires would help distribute the force.
At low speeds, you pickup a wing by stepping on the rudder. This strongly suggests that the rudder/vertical stabilizer needs wire bracing.
I remember the wires loosening and the bracket holding the vertical failing. There was one on the other side luckily.
These updates are two few and far between. I wasn't excited about a full sized electric until I researched it. Electric is basically the future of full sized aviation too. I hope the other viewers respond to this content.
Thaddeus Walker Not really, we need a tenfold improvement in battery capacity, plus safety enhancements before even light GA aircraft (4-6) become viable.
I am not sure what a "light GA aircraft (4-6)" means but electric aircraft are already quite successful in their role. Basically any hobby flying, glider, short commute or short race aircraft is basically improved by being electric. I didn't claim that it was the future of all aviation but current roles filled by combustion engines are better replaced with electric as well as other roles that combustion engines could not fill. Basically all certification will have people flying in electric planes because of the fuel savings. Red bull racing will be electric because of the improved thrust to weight. Gliders can use Regen. Quad copter tech can be applied to human flight.
Get stoked dude, this is really cool stuff.
Regulations are the biggest problem… You need 30 min. reserve at the landing airport, and that's the capacity of the batteries.
Also don't forget the high safety expectation...
Nowaday it is really edgy, good for some special applications but far from mainstream.
But I know about a big tech. company working on, thin Li batteries embedded/ built in non-structural parts. Builds with integrated batteries in the skin, will have more capacity with less weight…
There is nothing about complicated ICE that is safer than electric. This stuff is already on the market. Pipistrel has an electric trainer that can get you up for about an hour for 1$ in energy with a half hour of reserve. This is a game changer that opens up the mainstream to the consideration of how short hops can be utilized. There is already enough room for growth in that narrow range to make it mainstream.
Get stoked dude. Check out: Electroflight | Fully Charged on TH-cam as well.
It's understandable that these video updates are few and far between, you would imagine that an airplane would take a long time to build.
4:01 creepy Casey Neistat wave
He needs this creepy wave camera stick from Wiliam Osman
Creepy Nice Tats!!
He needs William Osman's camera stick!
Right at the start as well

I can't wait to see you fly in this plane, it was fun to see it age into what it now is!
My son and I are loving watching you build this airplane. Can’t wait to see you fly it!
May the force be with you

George Peals yeah really
George Peals always
has anyone tried rick rolling him with a song suggestion yet?
Shh. Keep it on the downlow.
Peter,
I believe you should not do a live streaming of the maiden flight. That would put a lot of pressure on you. Safety first.
Best of luck!
Angelo
Man, I just love the ending of your videos xD. Awesome! :D
This aircraft is very similar to what I wanted build when I was young, but I didn't, but you are doing it for real and that is super!
Dude i luv ur vids pls dont die haha

Peter, you should hook it up to some heavy duty servos, a receiver and throw some weights in. Take it for a few RC test flights before you put yourself in. It's looking really good!
true haha
I clicked on this so fast
kingpotatoman lol me too😂
kingpotatoman same
Me too! Just like;ooh vid..BAM
kingpotatoman Who didn't
kingpotatoman haha
Hey Peter, I just want to say you're one of my heros. I could never do what you do, but it's great to watch. I have every confidence you'll survive unscathed.
You sir. Are a gentleman and a scholar. Thank you so much for sharing this video with us.
If you ever get bored of flying it, would you ever consider making it RC? I think you could do it. Just add weights to where you would normally sit.
should make it RC for flitefest then crash it full speed into the ground
he already built it before making it real

I like how you are putting your life in a “learning experience”
You should make a headrest behind the cockpit incase the plane flips over while landing.
I took an aerospace class at school which got me interested in it and this plane project is super cool to watch! Thanks for making your content, it's awesome to watch!
Omg I can't wait for part 6 and the future flight! This series has been my fav on YT....ever. I've always wanted to do this and your work has inspired me to try this as well. Gonna spend the next year designing(researching and learning) before I invest any funds.
Proud of you, Bro! Keep it up and stay safe! ~Blue skies~
Can you give us a complete list of airplanes you took as a template? I'm really curious where you got your inspirations.
PeterSripol Airlines coming soon
Yes
Si
Hey sorry to bother peter but is there anyway to maybe get a supply list for everything I need to build the styrofoam biplane please it's a project for me and my brother who is very sick and last thing weogjt be able to do together
are you using normal bolts when you asemble the plane whilst testing things, because the nylon in the bots degrades when you tighten them and losen them, so if you use nylon bolts you should change them before you fly.
This! I would not trust them after more than a couple of openings and tightenings.

Go for it Peter ! Can't wait to see you fly.
Been watching u guys for little over a year. Very inspiring. Been into the hobby since birth 35yrs ago when my father introduced me to gliders and nitro balsa model free flight. Can't wait to see u fly this. And I plan a similar indever. Best to u Peter and flight test!!
Add pylons for munitions so you can bomb the haters
Hey Peter! I work for Garmin and would totally extend my employee discount to you if there is anything you have your eye on, or need for your airplane!
you should email your marketing department and pitch a collab for Garmin to sponsor his avionics, would be great exposure for Garmin and in return you could give him the avionics for free, trust me, marketing departments love spending money!
As for your test, 16 boxes at 32 pounds each is 512lbs. Let's say your plane (with batteries and motors) will weigh 210 pounds (just a rough guess, feel free to correct me) and the pilot is maybe 160. That means 370lbs would be 1G. 2Gs would be 740lbs, and 2.5 would be 925lbs. Check your math. I'm just guessing on how much the finished product will weigh, but the answer you got seems way too light. I get 16 boxes @ 32# each = 1.38 Gs.
he has put 20 boxes onto the wings later to test the plane for "2.5" gs, resulting in a load of 640 pounds or 1.73 gs
Still less than 2, and he said he wanted 2.5
And if he need to do a quick turn, the structure should whitstand at least a 3.5/4G
2gs in an aircraft are litererally nothing. when you are in a steep turn (60 degrees) you are at a constant g force of 2g. when you hit in such a turn a strong thermal you may end up at 3gs or more without even changing the curent aoa.
Or when you have to exit a spin and pull out you end up well above the 2.5gs.
Plus he didn't incorporate the weight of the aircraft into it, it needs to be more than just his own weight, such as engines, batteries, the fuselage it's self.
At 9:50 the four lower boxes near the fuselage are not simulating the lift on the wing with respect to the wing attachment to the fuselage but they are simply compressing the aerofoil section. The fuselage should have been supported from locations ahead of the leading edge and behind the trailing edge.
Still having said that, all I can say is this young man has logic, reason and thinks very rationally and he does revise what he does to ensure safety. He is modest and humble enough to take advice. Well done young man.
I Love how you use good music and beautiful editing etc on content I Love, the holy trinity of a great video production
Hello, nice video
Don't die please
I like your content.
You don't need to space out your comment like that.
ye
when is the maiden flight??
want to watch it live
Awesome work peter, Good luck on the maiden flight and hope all goes well!!
One question, any plans to paint it, or does that add to much weight?
AKMASTERMIND it does not add that much more wieght but paint that can go to 2g cost at least 3000 Dollars
Painting his ultra light, was that not clear?
No thread lock on full scale airplane. Cotter pins, safety wire, self locking nut and tight tolerance bolts is all you need. You've done a great job building that thing so far.
I love your videos because of your creative creativity when building
Peter Sripol, The 2017 Wright Brothers!!!!!
You’ve probably answered this but where do you plan to mount the motor(s)? I can’t wait to see this flying! I wish you well!
He has a working RC miniature of this design. It was showcased b4 the first build log.

✋✊✋✊✋✊👍. 4:00 what was that 😂
Bobby K did this really need that many emojis or have you just dedicated your life to being as cringe as you possibly can?
Copy, paste!
David S What?
Leading up to the creepy wave hand gesture, he used keyboard to ctrl+c copy and ctrl+v paste the wing assembly. I'm guessing the wave was the last step of the process...to summon the force or something?
David S lol ok
Question: Are our going to paint it? Or at least the wings?
Your maiden flight is going to break the internet!!!
Keep up the great work Peter!!!
Brazil here, fingers crossed! Hope you succeed! Good luck!
Awesome with a new Update man, one thing i don't understand tho, is Why you cut the foam inside the wings out (if that makes sense). I mean, it seems like a lot of work just to loose like 1-2 pounds?
Most planes have hollow wings. It cuts weight and allows for wires for your control surfaces and motors. In Cesnas there are fuel tanks in a wing.
Wiring
well an non cored section is 873grams vs 395grams (for 1 yard) that over a duration of 14.6 yards means 12lbs vs 28lbs. You tell me which is better LOL, and thats not even counting the nose ribs.
PeterSripol Thats kind of what I figured. People don’t think foam weighs that much but those wings are huge.
Life of Bjorn the lighter the better, especially on a build like this
If your planning on flying above 120 feet then get permission or a confirmation that you in the air pls I don't want a mid air collision!
Song reccomend:candy land by tobu.
Awesome design! I made one in 1984, making me the youngest in the world to design and construct a manned airplane (aged 14). The 39 HP JPX Petrol engined 190 Kg 20 foot wingspan was test flown in 1998 by one of the top test pilots from England - Tom Knight. Applied for the Guiness Record but they turned me down saying "all FIRSTS and YOUNGEST are not records" :-)
Great project! Always great to watch your ingenuity and craftsmanship.
One day you'll build a electric plane that'll be big enough to transport people.
Now the real question is why you have so many noodles

Why do you get skin cancer, shingles, and sclerosis?
Do you have a set date for the maiden?
LOL this is a real homebuilt, i'll never forget my dad building a Turbulent fuselage in the kitchen when i was 4. Wow thats 40 years ago. He sold it on, around 1980 ish. Its still flying today. Be extremly cairful. If you have ANY doubts about it as a plane or your ability as a pilot seek progessional help an no i dont mean a shrink. I mean qualified aircraft insepctors an maybe a flight test savvy pilot. Even highly over qualified pilots can and do make mistake's with ultralight flight tests. Good luck from UK.
Now that's some good music! Nice video.
3:40 nice copy pasta. Just hope it worked :D
are you installing any flight instruments?
Shahan Stutes horizon indicator, altimeter, and compass, basic flight pack trio.
COME ON GUYS WE NEED ROCK AND ROLL SONGS
love your channel mate i never thought i could find someone better than colin furze but u are :)
stu
YOU'RE BUILDING A BIPLANE? A BIPLANE!?!?!? I NEVER KNEW THIS! THAT MAKES THIS PROJECT EVEN COOLER!
peter, how type of motor will you use for the plane?
Dude u need to try and build a freaking tank man with working airsoft gun or ping pong or golf ball launcher lol
For nose weight, will you add an engine of some sort?
Or guns
A couple Hispanos will do.
A ship needs a name, and so do planes when they are a labour of love.
I propose to cress this flying machine the Foam buzzer!
I wish you channel grows real quick. love you bro you are awesome man keep it up. Im so excited to see you flying bro!!
3:43 how to basic.
is it save to fly it and do you need a flying licence?
Jeibaru Turay he has one, but cant afford a plane
SAFE to fly? maybe not but we will see soon enough bro!!
Wait a minute. Are you saying 1g is your weight? That's wacky! It needs to be the auw not just you! And that wing flexes makes me nervous...but I guess dreamliners flex as much too so...
Bryce Greene just an extreme example of wing flex
th-cam.com/video/kkfWbIPQh5g/w-d-xo.html
just look how much the wingtips come down as the glider slows down.
That's crazy.
Looks awesome! I have been enjoying seeing this build come together.

I feel like he should definitely build one using a very small IC Engine. It would be interesting to say the least, and he could build it more comfortably with the added thrust.
Your building skills have greatly improved grasshopper.

Please make it fast...
Its been two months ....
I cant wait more..
Fly it carefully...
As a mechanical engineer, please use lock-tite! Like so he can see
As a FAA certified A&P, do not use Loctite on the self locking nuts. They have special nylon material that locks the nut on the bolt. Do not reuse nyloc nuts, however. Loctite is rarely used on airframes. Also, use nyloc nuts where the bolt is not subject to rotation, and drilled bolts with castle nut and cotter pin where the bolt is subject to rotation.
You should post your comment not as a reply
I've never seen loctite on any ultralight, if it needs a locking nut then mechanical locks are the way to go.
Loctite has the potential to deteriorate the materials used in the vehicle.
Samie Don't use locktight because it really will melt plastics. I have had it eat plastics before to great detriment.
Peter you are a great guy. All the best with the airplane but be careful. gravity is relentless and death by trauma is no fun.
Your dog is so cute and i love your plane! Don't stop
Looking great!!! So happy to hear you changed your mind about suspension! Keep up the great job!!!
One piece windscreen!!! Just bend it so no vibration and 100 times stiffer then flat plate... Means it can be thin as a 2 leter bottle! :)
