Talk about luxury and exquisiteness..oh my goodness, now this is an absolute stunner!!! An RV with a roofless cockpit, who would have thought?? This luxurious exquisite bad boy screams USP (unique selling points) which makes the Skydancer RV a class well ahead of it's own! The Wizard would really love one because the Skydancer is simply magical!🧙♂️💥 😯 🚐😍😃🥂❤
This is gorgeous but idk why my mind is saying that something is either missing or misused. Then i thought about the space. The vehicle is huge but a lot of space is misused. *Space* is not judiciously used.
Was very impressed by the odd shape of this motorhome but very disappointed in the interior. Somehow it seems 'way too small for the size from the outside.
@@redcandi01 , in a later video, he describes that the 2nd set of seats folds in some sort of convoluted way to make a platform for the 2nd bed. The entire interior is awkward as all getout. So disappointing!
That's what I'm saying, unless there's a lot of storage space to make up for it or another level to sleep in, I'd rather just convert a sprinter van or something
I agree. From the outside I thought it was going to be 2 levels inside. Seems to be more of a concept vehicle to test the marketability of various features than something that would be practical in use. I still don't get where the other 2 passengers sleep.
@@VanlifewithAlan either that or some Manufacturers keep Changing their NAMES every few years to avoid the lawsuits?(lol)...all kiding aside now....whats HIDING behind that BIG back Door you may have missed(forgot?) to open? Its making the bed way to High up btw? Or does the Roof "SLIDE" the other way forward too...so you can "LIE UNDER" the night sky...on a Warm Clear night?
More of a motodrome, I have a difficulty in profiling the customer for this, the furniture is very utilitarian, all hard corners etc. I mean, I like it. I'm btwn a budget or a self build.
I ALWAYS wondered whether an RV could be built with a sliding roof so one could enjoy the benefits of a convertible. Now I know...they CAN. GREAT design.
@@my67falcon Might be right...BUT...and a wind deflector, behind the front two seats could cut down on that. I had one on my convertible... and it worked pretty well. Anyone sitting in the back would probably feel more of the affect. I would guess it would be much like riding in the back of a pickup or open bed cargo truck.
Hey, Alan I found the perfect van for me it’s a Mercedes Jules the way it’s layout us is what I want and the size is perfect for me . I’m going investigate more I really like the revel winnibego 4x4 but before I drop 150k on a home on wheels I want it to have everything I need and I want to be happy in it . So thanks for you videos.
4 Chairs and Sleep Space for 2.....that means 6 people....8 hours sleep rotate 3 shifts, 2 driving and 2 sitting in chairs or working......but they all have to share the same bed, just two at a time........
Well, uhmm, hmm, its different! I usually can decide within 5-10 mins of video if I like the RV or not, but this one, not sure! Only possible negative that I saw was the fridge right next to the bed. May be noisy at night when the thermostat kicks in to keep the temperature. Though, handy to grab a drink very quickly!
That's a good point about the fridge. And as big as this rig is, super disappointed with the kitchen itself and lack of counter space and what about pantry space? BTW what does "cabriolet" mean?
How long is this rig? Love the layout, two large closets, a huge bed and pockets of storage. I do wonder how the windows around the bed could be curtained since privacy would be required at night with lights on inside.
Wow ,now that is something to hit the open roads with these Covid months !! Wow ! But for the money by the looks so far in this vid very little storage space inside and not great use of all the floor design . Bike rack possibilities? Does the “ sun roof open with a screen to keep bugs out ? Very small eating table comfort couch like possibility . What type blinds automatic sleep area windows , sitting area windows ?
Liked the interior layout. Would have put counter extension near the door, not the bed. And like another comment, would have preferred the skylight over the bed instead. Weird looking front, but I like the van.
I like it. In addition to its very strong unique selling point it has a rather nice interior in my opinion. The only thing I don't like about it is the name "skydancer", but I could live with that.
absolutely stunning what a beautiful vehicle and what a great idea and concept more people should think of concepts like that I think the value of RVs will skyrocket even more than what they are today 💯👍
This needs a complete redesign of the space. Plus the convertible top feature is kind of useless, if you want bugs and crap coming into the interior, along with all the baking sunshine if you actually take it camping..
Que barbaridad ahora sí se volaron la barda que joya de vehículo que derroche de creatividad e inteligencia todo mi respeto a el o los creadores de este vehículo saludos desde la ciudad de México y les reitero nuevamente mi respeto y admiración
Nice job done on filming it👍 I couldn't see an oven or microwave anywhere. They need to incorporate these as they are a must. A small sofa would be good too.
The so called kitchen is terrible. Primitive really . The cheap tny sink, 2 burners with glass covers, hate those, no countertop and next to the bed. And they ask 120.000 Euro for it. Madness.
4 роки тому+1
Had this fly bridge RC idea 20 years ago for a step van conversion.
Looks like a pokermon go character from the side lol Looks nice but wasted space at front. Could of still had the luxury and feel of space and added more. Looks really cramped at the back with kitchen but seems there’s more space at front to stretch legs than the back and that’s including the bed lol.
With the roof in closed position, I can hear Alan screaming from here in Australia...It looks as though it would be crouching only under there. But it looks a refreshing layout.
Seems like an odd height to be seated at for driving. Only the biggest truck cabs are that high. Would this require additional driving training, to hgv level? A smaller vehicle with less garage space and facilities would be easier to handle. At this level of luxury a good car and hotels are more convenient.
@@VanlifewithAlan I prefer camping to hotels most of the time. Having to be in another city is the exception. Camping and caravans are more fun and feel more private than rooms that strangers are able to enter. I'm hoping to have a campervan one day to save time setting up and moving on. Sadly, I don't even have a car right now. Happily dreaming.
I've never seen more hard 90s inside an RV before. Let's code name this rig (stitches) after all that's what your getting if you fall for any reason...
Очень интересный проект. Авторы проекта вышли за рамки стереотипа построения автодома. Нестандартное решение с посадочными местами путешественников. Удачная компоновка внутри салона кемпера. Очень понравился сантехнический блок. Есть, конечно, непонятки: посадочных мест 4, а спальных мест всего два. И для чего на панели приборов стеклянный ящик?
What is the point of that little window in the front? The space appears to just be for storage so why put a window? I definitely think they missed major opportunities to maximize the storage and amenities.
@@VanlifewithAlan 2:23 notice the roof top line at the wind shield frame edge. looks so sharp as if made of wood like furniture , wood joined together and sanded down by hand. i can see this imperfections.. would not trust this on a stormy situation.there are no water catches and one just one simple rubber seal? looks too much like a show room mockup.
I guess it would be great if you like hanging around area 51 looking for UFOs but not that good in the woods could see it getting full of bugs and leaves fast.
It's a beautiful motorhome but the inside is totally all over the place, the clothes draws are under the stove , the fridge is close to the bed and the sky view should be over the bed, maybe there should have been a large skyview over the bed and a small one over the driver's cabin.
Wow, what a trip this RV is!! :) Seating for 4, yet sleeping for 2 ??? Small galley and ever smaller sink. Cool step ladder though and luv all the wine shown in refrigerator,, made me thirsty. XD The garage must be huge,, are the other 2 sleeping berths in there? hahahahaha I saw a pet sleeper up in the front console and it has it's own window. LOL I can't stop laughing and yet I can't look away from it's strange yet interesting concept/design. 8) Thanks for showing this Mr. Heath and keep us informed.
It is a prototype but it could come on the market this year at a price level of around EUR120k. I have forgotten the length now - sorry! I will soon publish another video with more information!
I love the bathroom! And the pet perch...or whatever that lower right window is for!
Talk about luxury and exquisiteness..oh my goodness, now this is an absolute stunner!!!
An RV with a roofless cockpit, who would have thought?? This luxurious exquisite bad boy screams USP (unique selling points) which makes the Skydancer RV a class well ahead of it's own!
The Wizard would really love one because the Skydancer is simply magical!🧙♂️💥
😯 🚐😍😃🥂❤
This is gorgeous but idk why my mind is saying that something is either missing or misused.
Then i thought about the space. The vehicle is huge but a lot of space is misused. *Space* is not judiciously used.
Agreed! Wonder what the under bed area is like and under the high chairs almost looks like double decker
bb nmmmkk
Probably under the driver's seat is the engine bay. Under the back is the garage area.
Does it seem odd to have seats for four but only beds for two?
It does look like a lot of wasted space. Seating for four, sleeping for two.
I love a lot of things about this, especially the bathroom/shower area. I have no idea why anyone would want a retractable roof though.
Was very impressed by the odd shape of this motorhome but very disappointed in the interior. Somehow it seems 'way too small for the size from the outside.
I thought the same thing. The interior was cramped and had zero wow factor.
I don't understand having 4 seats and one bed????
wasted spaces, more like a fancy bus than an RV. Good concept, work on the interior
@@redcandi01 , in a later video, he describes that the 2nd set of seats folds in some sort of convoluted way to make a platform for the 2nd bed. The entire interior is awkward as all getout. So disappointing!
There easily could be a dry bath.
Such a large vehicle with very little space..
YEP! 👍
AGREED!
That's what I'm saying, unless there's a lot of storage space to make up for it or another level to sleep in, I'd rather just convert a sprinter van or something
Yeah, shower is nice but a huge waste of space.
I agree. From the outside I thought it was going to be 2 levels inside. Seems to be more of a concept vehicle to test the marketability of various features than something that would be practical in use. I still don't get where the other 2 passengers sleep.
Brilliant in every sense of the word. Makes you not want to look any further for a small motorhome,
Absolutely 💚 the RV / the presentation . We'll appreciated📹 👍🏾
Thank you kindly
Lovely definitely would want to go camping❤😂
Ahh the 1960s campers are back! I love the nostalgia look!
Great idea , though personally I would have preferred the bed with the sky view
That is possible too - I asked them to take it out before filming!
and a far more comfortable bed.
What an absolute mint of a vehicle!
No real need for an awning ! But maybe lots of condensation in the winter months 🥶👀..nice 😊
The wet bath is perfectly designed!!
Thr whole floor plan is fantastic!!!
I love watching these videos to realise how big Is the fridge and how small the bathroom..😀
RV roofs get leaky when they are solid, I can't imagine how fun this will be.
Badly manufactured roofs get leaky. It is a question of sealing them correctly. That is why manufacturers offer such long water ingress guarantees.
@@VanlifewithAlan either that or some Manufacturers keep Changing their NAMES every few years to avoid the lawsuits?(lol)...all kiding aside now....whats HIDING behind that BIG back Door you may have missed(forgot?) to open? Its making the bed way to High up btw? Or does the Roof "SLIDE" the other way forward too...so you can "LIE UNDER" the night sky...on a Warm Clear night?
So amazing obviously I want one
At last! Someone bringing motorhomes into the 21st century!!!
I agree..interior was an after thought..I like how the fridge. Door rubs the bed...I've seen better kitchen areas in a pop up..
I’m here for that ole Skool 80s r&b track in the beginning.
Very linear layout, it has a feng shui feel. Love it😁❤👍
Very impressive motorhome design. Thumbs up.
More of a motodrome, I have a difficulty in profiling the customer for this, the furniture is very utilitarian, all hard corners etc. I mean, I like it. I'm btwn a budget or a self build.
I ALWAYS wondered whether an RV could be built with a sliding roof so one could enjoy the benefits of a convertible. Now I know...they CAN. GREAT design.
WHY is it European RV's are ALWAYS "a cut above" those sold in the USA?
Drive it with the roof open and the buffeting would be unbearable.
@@my67falcon Might be right...BUT...and a wind deflector, behind the front two seats could cut down on that. I had one on my convertible... and it worked pretty well. Anyone sitting in the back would probably feel more of the affect. I would guess it would be much like riding in the back of a pickup or open bed cargo truck.
I like it, probably best for 2 people who go on vacation, but don't need a lot of room.
I love it reminds me of the Barbie beach bus I had in the 70s. But 4 chairs 1 bed? We would need another bed 😮😔
A bed goes over the seats!

Great to hear Garry - I think I know which one you mean and if I am right there is a video of it coming soon!
Holy moly. This motorhome Is Incredible
Give the body and chassis to someone else to configure the interiors, comfort, ease.
I know it's Monday morning, but who fancies munching some tablets and having a dance? Just noticed that it's called the _SkyDancer!_ Let's Dance!
Needs 100% re-design.
I’ll do it
OK, do it.
Seats 4 but only sleeps 2?
The top area converts into a bed as well. Sleeps 4
Ive seen Toyota Quantum that sleep 6 to 8 people and is very smaller than this.
@@mindseyedesign i didn't see where's the bed of other top area
4 Chairs and Sleep Space for 2.....that means 6 people....8 hours sleep rotate 3 shifts, 2 driving and 2 sitting in chairs or working......but they all have to share the same bed, just two at a time........

May be noisy at night when the thermostat kicks in to keep the temperature. Though, handy to grab a drink very quickly!
I have plenty more films on it, in at least two languages so you will have time to decide!
@@VanlifewithAlan Lol, thanks but just this visual video was fine!
That's a good point about the fridge. And as big as this rig is, super disappointed with the kitchen itself and lack of counter space and what about pantry space? BTW what does "cabriolet" mean?
@@maryloufulton957 Cabriolet - an open top car, one with a retractable roof.
@@birreboi thank you for clarifying that! 👍
Seems like the bigger the van the worse the use of available space/ layout. So much wasted space inside.
Agreed. So cramped inside for all that exterior size.
How long is this rig? Love the layout, two large closets, a huge bed and pockets of storage. I do wonder how the windows around the bed could be curtained since privacy would be required at night with lights on inside.
I agree, outside design cool, inside leaves much to be desired...way too much wasted space to be worth the purchase.
@Planet Purgatory
If its built in Germany it probably isn't cheap, and there is a reason for that.
They got sunroom going on with a camper lol way cool❤
Wow ,now that is something to hit the open roads with these Covid months !! Wow !

It is a prototype!
Never seen one of these before. Very unique. Not a fan of wet baths but it is a really nice motor home.
I'm not a fan of wet baths either. Skydancer folks could learn something about how to get around that by looking at the 2019 Adria Twin.
👍
Liked the interior layout. Would have put counter extension near the door, not the bed. And like another comment, would have preferred the skylight over the bed instead. Weird looking front, but I like the van.
FINALLY!!!!! awesome! forward thinking.. this is for my generation

love the Convertible part but there are a lot of wasted space
Incredible! I must have one....
So high up, is underneath the passengers and driver flooring, got huge space. You would think it would being so high up and all.
not for nothing but that music was as beautiful as the motorhome
absolutely stunning what a beautiful vehicle and what a great idea and concept more people should think of concepts like that I think the value of RVs will skyrocket even more than what they are today 💯👍

It's really cool on the inside and the layout is great. But man, that thing is FUUUUUUUGLY!
At least someone is TRYING SOMETHING DIFFERENT...Interesting ..
Came for the motorhome; stayed for that funky track at the beginning of the video.
Love the background music funky jazzy👌🏿
Great Video Preview. I particularly like the design and style
Looks like a pokermon go character from the side lol
Looks nice but wasted space at front. Could of still had the luxury and feel of space and added more. Looks really cramped at the back with kitchen but seems there’s more space at front to stretch legs than the back and that’s including the bed lol.
Impressive. Impractical but impressive.
That looks really comfy on the inside, but my oh my on the outside it's can only be described as fugly!
Dig that funky beat........tune!
Top tip: fold up your newspaper before setting off with the roof down. 😂
With the roof in closed position, I can hear Alan screaming from here in Australia...It looks as though it would be crouching only under there. But it looks a refreshing layout.
With the roof down it is a bit tight for standing!
Style over little substance. Can you actually stand in the seating area with the roof closed and is there enough room for a useful amount of solar?
Well done sir. Excellent video as always.
Thank you. Very nice to read.
@@VanlifewithAlan Can we drive this skydancer with just a b category license?
@@futureflow8645 Yes, it is 3,500kg GVW.
@@VanlifewithAlan Very nice!! Thank you for the fast response!
Before you start the vid you know this would not pass regulations in the US. Fender bender you end up flying through the air

That looks like the vehicle they drove in original Lost in Space
The Chariot
Cannot hold the camera. Very irritating to view.
Beautiful, but seems that the living space is an afterthought and it's best when on the road, not parked. 🤷♀️
I love this car. And really amazing
Nice exterior, but 1 bed for 4 men? The night is going to be excitingXDD
The top area converts into a sleeping area. Sleeps 4

It gives better view to the lower right, useful in town driving.
Wow the dust and road dirt would be a bad. We go in the r/v to get out of the sun.
All I could think of when I saw this was dealing with bugs and mosquitoes.
Unique!
Nice, I would like to have one
I'm feeling that music though.
Wow amazing
Very good!
roof top made of wood and bondo. the seal is simple and odd looking as is hand made with wood and bondo may be trouble in rainy season
No vans in Europe are made out of wood any more!

HUGE door on the BACK that was Never Opened? What in there? Surely its NOT the engine compartment with such a High Step up on the front end?
Fu
Looks like a DIY project. Still, very nice.
Great job exelent video,
As long as it's under $20K I'll buy 1
Klif lord, it’s not under 20k, but you knew that. Try around $136k, starting out.

Thanks for showing this Mr. Heath and keep us informed.
There will be a more detailled film next week!
I am not Neil , very nice and great camera work . owner how expensive this is ? wonder how long it is ? Is it on the market ?
It is a prototype but it could come on the market this year at a price level of around EUR120k. I have forgotten the length now - sorry! I will soon publish another video with more information!
Alan Heath, what type of engine does it use and what manufacture that produced it?
This is awesome..!
And just think, when a cop pulls you over he's looking up to you, and can't pull a door open to make you get out !😈
Wood finish looks like particle board . Diamond tuff seats for that DIY look, This looks like Red Green built it w/o duct tape !!!
I could only wish for them to sell this in the USA
The Interior Is Small
Maybe 3-4 people can only be Suited here
Поздравляю Петр ти молодец, твой проект супер.
