Thanks for watching!
What did I just watch? A vlog or a mini documentary on Viking engines. The video quality was excellent. Hearing Jans story is awesome.
edwin kania a little mix of both! Jan is the man!
Viking Powered! looking sweet! this was cool to see a small part of what is involved to choosing and engineering the powerplant
How cool that Jan had both engines in stock and ready to go!!!!!! Viking rocks 👍
Enjoyed this . I like this style of plane too, I not only watch your channel but also Trent's channel and luv both of y'all's videos
Thank you for watching!
The 90HP was really smooth!! I have been following Viking for many years. Success on success since the original 110HP. Congratulations. Great support from Jan and Alissa. First flight soon !!
Super cool to see you guys building these beauties piece by piece
Oh Man!!! I've been SO looking forward to this!!!! Can't wait to follow this adventure and see her in flight!!! So happy for you Brother!!!!
Great video. I REALLY like the human interest piece on Viking. I am not at all surprised Viking would find a way to make what you need work. Just a really impressive story and video. Thanks for posting. I subscribed.
Really happy for you! That's quite the accomplishment in such a short amount of time. Great team of people, Alex, Jan, really impressive.
Great content! Thanks so much and big up to Viking Engines too!
Rich.
Welcome to the Viking family
Thank you sir! Hope to fly with you one day!
Rad!
the elder brother of Viggo Mortensen in the minute 12:55 to 12:58? 😮😃, great your workshop and your projects, congrats 😉
That 3 cylinder Viking motor install looks so so good and sounds exceptionable for a modern install. I was hoping to see the turbo motor go in. I have worked with the turbo motors before and the amount of torque increase goes beyond the HP numbers. Great work Viking...
We’re going to fly off the 40 hours without turbo to start :)
Great video! Can’t wait to see what’s next!
Oh Eric, I'm so sorry. I've been out of the loop for a couple of years. This is over a year old and I've only just seen it. I too am building a kit plane - similar to the kitfox but slightly bigger. It's a KFA Safari. I've been looking at these Viking engines - but I'm in the UK so getting support here maybe difficult. 18 months on now, can't wait to see how you are finding it. Hope you're well buddy.
My first time watching one of your videos, and I LOVED IT! The profile was a brilliant touch! Consider me a fan!
I’m a big kitfox fan but the Bush cat is cool and bigger inside
Excellent choice in engine..love my viking 130
Eric and Alex, that must have been such a magical process, finally have the engine mounted and working. I can't wait to see what the cowling is going to look like.
Looks awesome!
Very Cool!!! looks great!
I’m not much of an auto-conversion fan, but this one looks and sounds sweet! Nice job.
Amazing!! What a beautiful plane, thx for sharing!
Noice! Watchin' the dream materialize.
This looks Epic. Im very interested in your thoughts on the viking when its all said and done.
Really good content! Awesome video bud
Nice looking engine, i do rebuild aircraft engine here in Africa too. Have been working on vw since its common around here but hope with time to up grade to vking.
Hey thanks... For a Viking family
Tha gret video thanks parmar sar
Are you shooting raw? How are you getting those welding shots without totally blowing out the exposure on the rest of the frame?
where can i see more about this plane?
Are you going to Turbo that 90?
boa noite qual o diametro das tubulaçao usada na construçao da fuselagem vc pode mandar a planta do aviao
Very cool!
What brakes/master cylinders are those. I don't recognize the design and I'm impressed with the rod-boots.
FoesFlyDennis they’re Matcos
Wondering how that worked out?😬
Lot's of force transfer with that big gusset on the lower longerons, you already had a truss, now you have a sheeted truss in effect.
Excellent video!
What's up with the Kitcox 4???
Do you always have to extend the frame with the 130hp? will kitfox do this?
I compliment your choice of the Explorer II with Polar dial 😏
FoesFlyDennis a man with good taste! Welcome and thank you!
Where do i find the rest of the series...?
There’s a playlist here :)
Went with non-turbo 90 hp. What changed your mind with a turbocharged setup? Cost involved sure. Do like the 3 cylinder 90 horsepower and sounds great. Will keep watching the build.
Hoping to add the turbo later after they do some more testing.
AviatorShow can always add the turbo setup. Like your channel and keep up the great work.
Do Not use a Rubber K&N Air filter directly on turbo. Ive ssen them sucked into the turbines on the race track.
Those glasses!!
Where's it at now?
Waiting to cover!
Good video love the Viking part one advice, slow down, most folks dont hear as fast as you talk/
Do you have the plans for aicraft for sale? I'm really interested. Please respond me
CAC FC-1 Xiaolong??? Made for fighting…
Which drone did the hangar tour, great video, content is 10+
A homebuilt cine-whoop!
This answered a question for me. Lookin at KF and Viking motors. Glad to see this.
Other note, how long are you keeping stock on air conception 200?
Steele Ben hey there! We keep parts in stock :)
Enjoy your Kitfox! This one might be available in a year or so :)
Any updates?
Where did you by the aero classic 28” tires
Aircraft Spruce!!
There the 27.5 right just calling 28s
What is the status of this project now? Thank you!
There are some updates here on the channel, it’s almost ready to fly right now!
I'm trying to figure out with network I can see this on... How about Netflix? Let's get this on Netflix.
Ah man, that'd be the dream. Just wait until you see tomorrow's video. You're going to love it.
I like the honda Viking engine boy there are lot of guys out there talk about how he took money from people for the Subaru conversions never shipped the engines. When legal action was taken he filed bankruptcy never refunded anyone.
I miss new smyrna
Brazil
Where is giar
Nice! Lose the daft music tho
1:05, those gussets have holes on the outer edge, not very good workmanship and renders the outer edge a bit pointless.
👍👍👍👍❤️🇺🇦
KitFox are BadAss. Check out Trent Palmer channel.(Flying Cowboys)
Swamper 44 Trent is a good friend :) he should be on this channel again in a couple of months
Sweet Jesus, why is the opening music loud enough to blow speakers then the guy talks as quiet as a school girl
Damn, that intro music is way, way too loud! A bit of audio compression to balance the entire video and watching output levels goes a long way... And stops my neighbor from banging on the walls!
Lost me will all the adds.
Rotax 912 much better.
Top notch Viking garbage!! Do your research on the crap he’s selling you!!! Could have gotten a 100hp for a lot less money.
