Done. Like I promised. First 3D file I've ever paid for. (I make my own) But loved this so much figured it still be a blast. With a flight controller. Plus simplicity. Stay tuned. They sent me e 50mm x flys LoL so I'll make it work
Beautiful bird and nice CAD work, just purchased from Cults. Been watching your vids and am impressed. BTW I've been in RC for 50yrs+ and your work is very much appreciated. Keep up the good work!
Noice 👍👍 I've been out for a long time with a health issue and the related financial issues. Maybe someday. Nice job Kyle and partner that thing shreds pretty hard. I never would've fathomed that RC was headed here back in the late eighties when I was slope soaring my SR-7 at Coyote Hills in Fremont CA. Those were the days!!
I don't build rc airplane. But I do make a nice paper plane. You can definitely get the NGAD to fly without the vertical stabilizer. All you need to do is add. Conical Camber close to the tips of the wings. Conical Camber is also on the SR-71 Blackbird. I never knew this. But if you look closely at the tips of its wings. Youll see how it's curved a certain way. I would this on my flying wing paper airfoils. It works amazingly well. But I do understand paper planes are different from RC aircraft.
Let's see it fly level inverted or make a lap around the field while inverted. Is it neutral when inverted or does it climb or descend with no stick input? I'm not a fan of the direct drive servo because you'll probably have to turn the travel down in your radio unless you actually need about 40° of control surface throw. Turning the travel down decreases the resolution of your radio and the positioning accuracy of the control surface, so I avoid it.
Utterly American! Flight controls? We don't need no stinkin' flight controls! Amazing design gentlemen. I want a full size screams the kid in me. Greetings from New Mexico!
This looks beautiful in the air. It has that unmistakable look of being real; it looks "right" the way it flies and moves. Incredible work. I can easily see this being scaled up, with clear canopy, wing lights, landing gear and all, and it would credibly look like a scale model of a real plane. I've never done RC anything, nor am I into 3D printing, but I would love to have a model of this just to hang from the ceiling. Is this made in pieces and glued together?
Don't get me wrong. I LOVED the first version. But the details Thomas added really make this look so much cooler. I love how it zips past you at high speed! If I make this, I'm going to need some kind of a high vis paint scheme. Not too crazy. Something like a T-45 with red tips on the wings. With the intakes on the top, do you think you can take off by sliding on grass?
It reminds me of the sky viper vector except on steroids. the vector flies pretty good for a small dual pusher prop setup. a good toy-grade flier. Would prefer an NGAD and all its power but target doesnt sell anything hobby-grade. ;-) Cheers!
So, do you find that the thrust vectoring has advantages over the other flight control surface planes? Does it give you maneuverability advantages or is it on par with traditional designs. I'm not a model airplane flyer.... yet, but this thing looks really cool. Just stumbled onto your videos a couple weeks ago and I think they're very good. Love to see the designs and how they fly. Thanks.
Very nice My friend ! Try this hack/trick... Purchase a few grams of (FLG) few layer graphene in powder form, mix it very very well with super bond glue, paint your prints with it, just one coat ok, see how many times stronger it will become? Imagine if you printed them in HD poly carbonate graphene? Instead of doing bellyflop landings, can land it point first like a dart lol...
For those of us who don't really understand, can you please do a video on why this is such a milestone and how/why this hasn't been done before. From someone who doesn't know, it seems strange that such a simple looking design hasn't been done before. Also, what are the benefits over traditional designs?
@@timcopley1531 next time I fly it ill explain on the video. In a nutshell all planes fly with traditional control surfaces. Meaning the air that passes over the wings gets deflected to provide pitch, roll and yaw. To my knowledge nobody has ever produced an airframe that only uses thrust vectoring to completely control the aircraft and also allow it to land in a controllable way. I believe a few turbine pilots have managed to fly a complete flight with thrust vectoring but they used a flight controller /gyro to make all the adjustments at 1,000x per second. The F22 raptor and other military jets use thrust vectoring to aid in maneuverability but only in some situations under the aid of computer stabilization. Hope this makes sense. It may seem simple, I can assure you the wing design alone was a feat to provide so much stability we can even think about using only thrust vectoring to control the flight. Then came the planning of the vector vane shape and length. Too much control will be out of control. I could continue but I don’t want to bore you guys lol
I don't know anything about 3D printing like what materials or spools to use? Is there like a carbon fiber material? Can you make a 70mm version? I have gear for that.
It would be impossible to make it larger so that there was room to mount the engines on gimbles and independently control their direction with direct-drive servos and their power independently.
Do any of you posting know how much this would cost to have someone print and ship this to Arizona? I bought the F15 model but I need someone to print it.
@@dj007twk in what way? It flies as good or better than a purchased $300 plane from a big box manufacturer with thrust vectoring only. Please elaborate 🤔
Nice to see it finally polished and done . Printing your sr71right now, are you going to finish the build video for that thanks and keep up the good work!
Please, get rid of that vertical tail and install Hull ORIENTED CONTROL SERVICES up front just rear of the cockpit, please. When I say Hull oriented, please put flaps near the hull just behind the cockpit so it can replace the vertical tail. Thank you
@@hotlapkyleSetup from print/electronics installed to recommended settings for rates etc. I'm going to say I'm going to be a new pilot cause of your videos. But I need to know where to start. I've built a quadcopter before so I'm not a total novice. But servos and flaps are different than setting up a esc and checking motor orientation. I need guidance after it's built. Radio recommendation and reciever, batteries used etc 🙌🏾. I'm going to buy the ngad file soon enough.
Wouldn't it be interesting to have this set up with movable carnards as the eurofighter ...e.g. .Rafall See what performance . Would really push the Flight envelop
Well, I seen sevrral full size manned planes (done by Experimental Aircraft Association 'homebuilders' that had ducted props that used the vectoring vanes. And wasn't it Douglas Aircraft back in the '50s that tried to use a vane above and below the exhaust of a jet experimental fighter they were developing? So it's not a "new" idea, just nre to EDF RC planes

NGAD is the way you tune a bass guitar. What is it, that WTF LMAO IKR LOL?! It is nonsense. Give planes names, if those military fools do it wrong. GNAD. Forget it.
NGAD is an acronym for Next Generation Air Dominance. And its not a plane, its a project to develop a plane, specifically a fighter more advanced than the F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II. The plane is nothing more than a shape on a piece of paper right now, and as such has no official name yet, and the shape on the paper is most likely classified information. The model is based on the emblem of the project, hence why the model is being called NGAD. Because its literally the emblem of the NGAD project.

This is just such gorgeous design ,it is just awesome thank you
WAY COOL! I need one!
Maybe the next version can have thrust-vector nozzles? Instead of just deflecting the thrust up and down, allow for left and right.
Now we need the FPV version and I’m in!
I have not flown RC in decades. I need this in my life😮
Great model, very unique. I’ll print one as a side project for when our club field gets too rough this fall.

Scaled up for 64mm or 70mm EDFs with retracts would be awesome.
Yeah would be insane
That is really something. Well done.
Just keeps getting better and better!
OK. I will build this one first. Congratulations on this innovative design.
Keep building upon this model. This is nice.
One of my favorite builds you've done.
Excellent work on these!! Can’t wait to see what you make next. Ever considered trying a B-21 Raider?
Fantastic job! I'll bet somebody in the Chinese government is downloading it now...
That's exactly what I was thinking you may have gave away secrets unknowingly 😮
@@74Omegaprime secrets....? it's a hobby project not a government program 😅
sure does nail those left hand circuits
I am stunned by your builds
So unbelievably amazing! Great job as always
not only does it fly like a champ, it looks fucking SICK!
Niiiice my dude, we love to see it!
It is really beautyfull . flies like perfection. .so stable. smooth flying. .It looks like a real big plane. .
Congratulations! Significant Achievement!! 😃👍
Fantastic ! It would be interesting to see tubular vector thrust control.
Just awesome man
he he, it flies just like a jetski, no controll if the throttle is off. sweet plane man!
Congrats!!! Another awesome job.
a picture in picture of your controller while flying would be amazing to see...
It looks similar to the jet in the 2005 movie called Stealth. Congratulations ❤
That sounds like a dream. 😮
I'm not a RC'er (yet) but I might just print this out as a static model, it being so pretty.

You have some flight control from the vertical diverters on the wings.
Either way sweet build.
I spent 20+ years as Falcon Jets modeler. Let me know if you want me to make that "Pretty".

"Direct drive servo system" 🤗👍💯
Add a couple of impulse jet engines. Or real turbo fan engines. I like to see how it handles the stress of heat with thrust vectoring.

What happens when a sustained 20 MPH wind and it’s flown into the wind at 20 MPH? Does it appear to hover?
Have you consider air brakes for landing control ? ?
Got mine!
@@rickkollins thank you Rick 🙏
What happened to ever testing the ngad without the tail? Also, how about an fxx?
NGAD?
I'M GLAD
Like to see a bigger version with landing capability
Hard to tell, in that first flyby is the nose high in 'level' flight?
Beautiful job.
Did you move the EDFs forward? Did moving the EDFs forward help with controllability under 30% throttle?

Hot damn. Nice work!
The landing is super impressive. As I understand it low speed landing is a huge challange for flying wing type planes.
Pretty cool, where did the original design come from?
Wouldn't it be interesting to have this set up with movable carnards as the eurofighter ...e.g. .Rafall
See what performance .
Would really push the Flight envelop
You have vertical stabilizers
Impressive. But if one engine fails, you're going to lose control, right?
How does this compare to a drone speed wise
I would bet it is faster and has better flight time. It would be cool to see if this could fly DRL or DCL race course.
Just flip your brain inside out, the airframe itself becomes the control surface.
love it but uk we need to be sub 250g
Fuck those rules
USA has rules like that, to fly heavier one needs to register the model with the FAA and install a RemoteID transmitter...and...?
you should patent this
could earn billions
