My adventures in aviation. I fly remote control aircraft and ultralight power parachutes (PPC), and have many friends in general aviation with some amazing aircraft.

Amazing drone footage please add me
Awesome
Great video by the way!
Hey Tom. That is a sweet little Destiny. I had one identical to this one a few years back and I fixed it up and sold it to a guy over in Alabama. Mike didn’t buy it from that guy I don’t imagine? I went through that ppc and replaced every piece of rubber on it. I had to repair the radiator too but it was a sweet ppc
Как его правильно настроить
Memories made and fresh air to fill the lungs. Amazing pictures 📸
When to inject fuel, at what degree, when we are designing the ECU?
Great documentary of your soon to be NEW HOME .... A First step OF MANY ... BLESSINGS BT !!!
I've been enjoying your PPC videos. Thanks for sharing. I'd love to know more about your PPC (Make, Model, Engine and Chute)?
Glad you enjoy them. It's a Destiny Vision with Rotax 503 and Manta 500+ wing.
@@tomrc4328 Thanks Tom!
Not sure yall are in south Carolina but your buddy sounds just like my father 😅
Fantastic drone footage please 🙏 follow me 👍👍👍👍👍
Very good drone footage please 🙏 add me 👍👍👍👍👍
Good one!
Nice capture! I really wanna try to grab some footage before a storm! Looks cool
God night,so awesome ,see ya~ 🔥
Abandoned ???
No, was just based there for a couple weeks during operations.
@@tomrc4328I thought that you found an abandoned helicopter lol
Friggin awesome !!! I can't wait 🤗😉🙃😎 NZ
I found these need a lot of wind to fly successfully. ALOT of wind!
Super der beste Film mit Spezialeffekt über die legendäre Stearman
this was kinda mesmerizing just watching you make those smoke rings and fly in and around them. Looks like a lot of fun although I’d be terrified
That's a pretty clever pulley modification. Thanks!
GREAT JOB TOM !!!
Motor ?
Rotax 582 blue head
Hey brother. Man I love your videos!!! Too cool my brotha!!!
Hi Tom, long time no talk. I am thinking about adding Audio to my GoPro footage and wondered if you had ever messed with that. I think it will add a lot more to my videos if I can narrate them. When you land you are talking I think into your galaxy phone? Hope all is well with you and yours. I’ve recently gotten back into the RC truck Hobby, they are a lot more expensive than they were in the 80s!
The audio in my videos is coming from the camera I have clipped on my hat. You can use whatever you want to record narration after the fact, then just add that audio to the video in editing. I've slowed down on the RC flying, but I'll still get a good day of flying in once a month still. Too many hobbies these days!
@@tomrc4328 Thanks for the reply Tom! I don’t have any editing software, I just take what I get for my Gopro and put it on UA-cam. The reason I use UA-cam as I was running out of space on my computer and phone storing video files! I do have a microphone coming that should be able to allow me to narrate while I fly, time will tell. Enjoy your hobbies!
Hull needs a step. That will help it get on plane.
You were flying Charlie's machine?
Yes.
Excellent!! I'm a new fan.
Looks like you're a good bit faster than John.
It's the Manta wing!
That same scenario has killed many pilots just the same turning back when a problem occurs! Sad! 😢
Great Job Tom...enjoyed the flight !! Beautiful Sunset !!!
How did you locate TDC at zero?
Nice to learn. I have exactly the same yellow one. 🙂 It's flying great at 3-5 bft with 20m lines. Greatings from germany.
What's bft?
@@justme.9711 , bft = Beaufort scale (classification of wind strengths)
Never thought about it, but how fast will that go on the ground just driving ? I haven’t tried it as my buckeye has no breaks
It will scoot faster than I want to go. LOL Did you watch the whole video? I drove it on the road back to the airfield. ;)
Oh yeah I watched it all lol.. I have 582 and 550T. Singleton seater Buckeye, I’m 300lbs and off the ground in 40’-50 ‘lol… I’m Going have to find some where to open her up on the ground
Dang, thats not good!
Would be good if we could have seen it.
What can you advise about increasing engine power?
Hey Tom what’s a AGM-30 is it like the AGM-65 guided missile?
2 stroke gas engine. AGM is the brand name, 30cc size.
As the students named it many years ago "The Yellow Peril!"
😋 'PromoSM'
Need to adjust the pitch of the engine to lift the back up 2 degrees or 3 degrees then change the prop to increase air flow the proper is pushing
Not so much issues of pull not pushing. Deck needs sealed so wash over doesnt Fill Hull. Bevel the sides from back to front so can Slide and Not HooK like when came ashore. The motor weight is too fwd. Lean your bottom needle a bit, should help it start. The hull has large flat surface area , this creates lots of SuctioN to the waters surface to overcome. Very Nice Cage n rudder setup, id like to see test where you shift that assembly back like the full scale airboat setup
Very nice ! Did you remember prop size?
Thanks. Prop is Xoar CF 23x8
Nine 109 cubic inch cylinders. Air cooled 4-cycle optimized for torque. Piston = 5-something inch diameter. Stroke = about the same. From 985 total cubic inches it made over a thousand foot pounds of torque at a low low 2300 rpm and when multiplied together those numbers mean 450 Clydsdale-Power : )
👍
I have a 100 inch paraglider and it pulled me off the ground
Wow! That sounds gooood 😃
Nicely played 👏👏👍
Thank you. Had to watch the video a few times to understand how this works. )
What a beautiful sound . I love those radial engines !
If you putt around with a Warbird like it’s a trainer, you’re asking for trouble.
