BUILD PLANs for sure on this one... It could be an awesome thing for our Flying Club to try at our next big Fun Fly.... #REDRIVERFLYERS #REDRIVERRCFLYERS
I loved what this video was about! The friendship and bonding that happens during difficult projects are the memories that last a life time. Thanks guys and what a Great Bullet Bill!!!
Bixler you built it!! I tried to get you to make this last summer when you knowticed my bullet bill patch on my flight jacket lol. You said back then you didn't think it was possible, I'm glad you took on the task and got it flying !!! Hope a build video is in the works :)
Excellent! My first thought was, instead of tail wings on the back, how about a ring about 3" larger in diameter, and about 3-4" long with four standoffs. The standoffs (which of course would be located between the cylindrical body and the outer circle) could incorporate control surfaces for yaw and pitch. Steve
Keeping with the ‘80s theme, you all should make a DeLorean time machine like the one from Back to the Future. Something that would make Doc Brown proud. 🕶🏂
Flite test, do you sell a tool kit to make chuck gliders. That would be a good way to start. Would like to try and build a twin sparrow for my nephew, and put a mario paint scheme on it...just searched and saw the crafty kit.
This video is amazing, not just because of the outcome, but because of Josh's tenacity. This video captures the design, build, redesign process all makers go through. Truly great guys!
10:25 Man, Alex. Best friend ever. I know what it's like to be a perfectionist and overly stringent on yourself -- it's debilitating. Three cheers for good friends who understand, and can get us out of our head space. Also, this has to be the most fun and lighthearted video in ages. Reminds me of the early days. Good stuff, guys.
The one that shows up at FF is amazing, with the LEDs. And then the complimentary ghost is up there too. Awesome stuff. And hey, if you haven't already, you can now sign up for Flite Fest.
I actually designed a 3d printed gremlin frame that is the blue shell. Just search thingiverse for "koopaquad." I think I need to get back into modeling some more Mario kart items. How cool would it be to have the whole lineup that flies!?!?!? :)
I would do anything to be part of this team, so motivating to see so much joy, so much compassion, so much raw teamwork. And so humbling to see so much trial and error. Love you guys and love this channel.
Ok seeing Alex running around in a Mario suit worth sloggin thru ads. Keep it up guys you are coming back around to the originality that got you started. Thanks for more explaination of what you had to change and why to make it fly so well.
This thing started flying like a party balloon when you let go of it - and it just goes all over the place! Glad it worked out - I think this would be an awesome thing to fly!!!
this might inspire me to begin learning to fly when my dad heads out in the morning, hope to see it as a set sometime being the huge nintendo fan I am, keep up the good work guys. hope to see bullet bill as a build set.
Love you guys. Not too many things to laugh about these days, but you all make my heart feel light and your outrageous builds always make me smile. Keep up the good work and always maintain your sense of humor. YOU ARE A#1 in my book.
Kudos to the crew for some excellent pictures. Josh, excellent video. You brought up some interesting points: a) even a crash is a learning experience, we often focus on the positive outcomes and sometimes disregard the negative ones. Secondly, working with foam core allows for those negative , and often more important results, to come at a very low price compared to conventional construction.
Pure fun, that was one of your best one-off creation videos ever! It also looks like it would make a really good kit plane... I'm way out of the RC thing and I will not buy one but I would be surprised if it didn't turn out to be a popular kit.
Yes ,, my 3 year old is saying he wants 10 of him ,, lol i will be looking for it soon ,, ty for making me an my kids so happy for the fun we are having with RC flying an the epic crashes :D
Would love to see a giant version of this. Sidenote: if you turned the arms down, can they function as landing gear? maybe freeing up space for more flight surfaces and slightly making it closer to the game version in terms of look. Edit: This is such an adorable video
You guys never stop blowing my mind. The A10 was amazing but what if u tried a large scale model of an osprey if anyone could pull it off it would be you guys
Yep. Was thinking similar.... Don't get too attached to them as a sponsor, guys. The moment you say or do something someone decides is racist (such as enjoying a hobby that involves aircraft, because that's probably racist these days), they'll end it.
Great creativity and the fun! I'm also intrigued by the B-17 at 2:25, pointed out by another viewer! How about a FT B-17? Warbirds and R/C belong together!
SO GOOD! So good to see JBix again! BULLET BILL NEEDS TO APPEAR IN FFE'19 COMBAT! 👍👍👍🤣🤗 (lol I feel like most of my designs are not "aerodynamically responsible!" 😂
Bullet bill has flames out the back like a rocket. Why not make a tail to help with stability and paint it and shape it to loosely resemble fire shooting out? I think that would look cool!
Maybe try a Bullet Bill with no wings, but use an EDF motor (or just an interior mounted prop with an air inlet in the center of the nose) in the center and if the whole object spins along it's axis it may fly stable

Cool Flite Test
Can you pleeees greet me
can you make a p51A with the large cannons sticking out?
Ducted fan in nose??
FliteTest make a write brothers plane please.
Would love to see this as a build plan. Seeing the bullet bill come to life as an RC aircraft is amazing.
Yes same
@@bmar400yes
I would love to have one!!
+1
BUILD PLANs for sure on this one... It could be an awesome thing for our Flying Club to try at our next big Fun Fly.... #REDRIVERFLYERS #REDRIVERRCFLYERS
OMG, YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT AVAILABLE AS A BUILD KIT!
Awesome Mario by the way
Definitely!!
Reminds me of a stubby Gee Bee Z plane. ;)
Is this a build kit yet and has anyone used this for the demolition derby in Ohio?
@@brianjfsabo Nintendo vigorously protects their IP. There is no way they could sell a kit and not get sued into oblivion.
@@EURIPODES
Nothing would be stopping them from posting instructions at least.
@@kurisu7885 What is stopping you?
Mommy, I just saw Bullet Bill chasing Mario outside.
Billy, you've been playing that game too long.
No mommy I did see it
Billy, fine. Show me.
Nate Vemuri *disappears*
NO MOM O SWEAR
*Mario comes running in, the bullet bill behind him*
I loved what this video was about! The friendship and bonding that happens during difficult projects are the memories that last a life time. Thanks guys and what a Great Bullet Bill!!!
I’m still surprised on how he managed to get Bullet Bill in 5th place.
item rarity is by distance and not place, I think
Items are based by distance from first place and if it's not a full 12 player race it changes certain chances for items.
@@TheDonorak Oh Did not realize that
It is probably a multiplayer game with only 5 people.
On the Wii you can change the rules so that the higher ticket items come up more
PLEASE make this a speed build kit and take my money! I need to fly this for myself.
YES! Make it a store model
Bullet bill chasing Mario just made my day : ')
Alex was a champ :) Made my day too.
I love how when things go differently than how you expect them to, you use it as a learning experience.
Bixler you built it!! I tried to get you to make this last summer when you knowticed my bullet bill patch on my flight jacket lol. You said back then you didn't think it was possible, I'm glad you took on the task and got it flying !!! Hope a build video is in the works :)
Mike Franklin you guys are such an inspiration brother! Still one of the coolest patches I have ever seen. :)
Excellent! My first thought was, instead of tail wings on the back, how about a ring about 3" larger in diameter, and about 3-4" long with four standoffs. The standoffs (which of course would be located between the cylindrical body and the outer circle) could incorporate control surfaces for yaw and pitch.
Steve
Alex dressed up as Mario explaining aircraft CG is seriously the best and most hilarious thing. 👍🏼
Yes XD
I would buy this if you made a speed build kit. Awesome work as always!
Keeping with the ‘80s theme, you all should make a DeLorean time machine like the one from Back to the Future. Something that would make Doc Brown proud. 🕶🏂
A large H-quad would suit that request nicely.
The fun you guys were having just tossing it back and forth was contagious.
At 2:25 there is a foam b17 in the background. I might just be getting my hopes up but Ft b-17 ?
Holy crap there is! I've wanting them to build one since i started watching them.
It wasnt there before when they were tossing bullet bill. A future B-17 video coming soon?
bullet bill has never looked better with the fighter jet upgrade, looks amazing and i bet it feels amazing to fly!
Their enthusiasm and excitement when something flies, makes me wanna get into the hobby.
DO IT:):)
You won't regret it, once you have outlayed some money and knowledge you can just keep on repurposing the same gear to make some fun stuff.
Just go down the rabbit hole, you won't regret it.
Flite test, do you sell a tool kit to make chuck gliders. That would be a good way to start. Would like to try and build a twin sparrow for my nephew, and put a mario paint scheme on it...just searched and saw the crafty kit.
UA-cam just suggested y'all to me and I cannot get enough! Y'all need to make Tails from Sonic fly!
And finally disprove that damn MatPat.
Ya'll
Love to see you guys try and build a space shuttle
Yes definitely build a space shuttle and make it a speed build kit. Take my money!
This video is amazing, not just because of the outcome, but because of Josh's tenacity. This video captures the design, build, redesign process all makers go through. Truly great guys!
3:23 100% accuracy from years of mario cart gaming? :P
Oh man can you imagine a smoke grenade in that?
yeah, some smoke would be awesome 😁
I’ve got to build my own and try that
Air-headed Aviator yh
It needs teeth as well
Or a rocket ;-)
10:25 Man, Alex. Best friend ever. I know what it's like to be a perfectionist and overly stringent on yourself -- it's debilitating.
Three cheers for good friends who understand, and can get us out of our head space.
Also, this has to be the most fun and lighthearted video in ages. Reminds me of the early days.
Good stuff, guys.
You should make a flying Pac-Man nutball plane
Lolasuaris Rex I think I saw one at Flite fest! Whoever made it did a great job!
The one that shows up at FF is amazing, with the LEDs. And then the complimentary ghost is up there too. Awesome stuff. And hey, if you haven't already, you can now sign up for Flite Fest.
Yes, this is a must for a kit..
My young one would love this and it would help me not only get him outside but keep him outside this summer
Ok, so who is going to build the blue shell? Can't have bullet bill and Mario Kart without the blue shell. :)
I bet the aerodynamics would be pretty rough, but I'd love to see a flying blue shell.
@@nuclearattackwombat8390 At lest the blue shell has wings ( in some renditions of it). Gotta be some way to make it work :)
IIRC They made a Blue Shell quadcopter for an episode once
Tkor made a floor riding red shell so that's what he closest thing I know
I actually designed a 3d printed gremlin frame that is the blue shell. Just search thingiverse for "koopaquad."
I think I need to get back into modeling some more Mario kart items. How cool would it be to have the whole lineup that flies!?!?!? :)
I would do anything to be part of this team, so motivating to see so much joy, so much compassion, so much raw teamwork. And so humbling to see so much trial and error. Love you guys and love this channel.
That hilarious can wait to see the whole video!
Ok seeing Alex running around in a Mario suit worth sloggin thru ads. Keep it up guys you are coming back around to the originality that got you started.
Thanks for more explaination of what you had to change and why to make it fly so well.
this bullet bill looks wayyyy better than the real one, I LOVE THIS!!!!! the little wings at the back are awesome!
....What if you guys made a flying Blue Shell?
That would scare me it always will.
(has mario kart wii flashbacks)
@@ottovanteeffelen1860 it's so op, lmao.
That episode has gotta be one of the funniest and most rewarding. Thanks guys
Me: “I should get some sleep”
Also me: **Watching 2 grown men play toss with a cardboard Bullet Bill at 3 in the morning**
sameeeeeeeeee
chr0min0id 04 😂🤣😂🤣😂😆
I just love the enjoyment you guys get from building these crazy ideas you come up with.....just hearing you all laugh brightens up my day.
You guys need to utilize clear building materials for projects like this.
I was thinking the same thing, for the stabs and elevons at least.
Clear would be great. I wonder what a little sky blue paint would look like on the non-Bill surfaces.
@@hardnaaklife I was thinking that too, but that stuff always ends up kind of tacky
where's the transparent aluminium then ?
Oh no no
This would be a really fun weekend project with the kids. I'm all for plans and a build video!
Oh hey, thanks for using my footage ;)
This thing started flying like a party balloon when you let go of it - and it just goes all over the place! Glad it worked out - I think this would be an awesome thing to fly!!!
Your ideas are getting more and more crazy...😂
almost free radical
this might inspire me to begin learning to fly when my dad heads out in the morning, hope to see it as a set sometime being the huge nintendo fan I am, keep up the good work guys. hope to see bullet bill as a build set.
what if you put a ducted fan in the center of bullet bill?
...with the control surfaces internal.
@@shphawk3525 exactly what I was thinking!
@@shphawk3525 with vectored thrust!
Love you guys. Not too many things to laugh about these days, but you all make my heart feel light and your outrageous builds always make me smile. Keep up the good work and always maintain your sense of humor. YOU ARE A#1 in my book.
Can you make Mario's Hat fly like in Mario Oddessey that would be awesome!!
What if you could wear it just like Cappy to 😂
How about making a whole Mario fly along with the Bullet, that would be epic. ;D
Guys this is so awesome!! You gotta make a kit for it :) LOVE IT!! Always pushing the boundaries
Every FliteTest video ever:
1:00 We're gonna do something crazy!
5:00 I don't think this is possible.
5:01 We cheated!
10:00 HUEHUEHUE OMG IT FLIES.
15:28 I can't believe it's gonna fly! :D

Secondly, working with foam core allows for those negative , and often more important results, to come at a very low price compared to conventional construction.
Bob's voice for some odd reason reminds me of Stan Lee R.I.P
Looks amazing, glad you guys didn't give up on bullet bill.
My favorite flitetest video ever, more cosplay and pop-culture references, will be great for your platform
This would be an awesome one for a build kit, it would be my first purchase from the store just to get those curves right! Great job.
❤ the fails! Makes my failures feel better! Keep flying!
Pure fun, that was one of your best one-off creation videos ever! It also looks like it would make a really good kit plane... I'm way out of the RC thing and I will not buy one but I would be surprised if it didn't turn out to be a popular kit.
Now that you have bill flying, you need to get thomas the thermoneuclear bomb in the air too.
*Insert Thomas The Tank Engine Theme*
Yes I think everyone would love a bullet bill speed build kit / free plans!
Should have tried a ducted fan in the nose. Then it would drag bullet bill along.
Yes that actually is a good idea
This NEEDS to be a build kit!!!
Something I didn't need but want
One of the funniest things I have seen in ages! Thank You! AND Bullet Bill did fly amazingly well.
Yes ,, my 3 year old is saying he wants 10 of him ,, lol i will be looking for it soon ,, ty for making me an my kids so happy for the fun we are having with RC flying an the epic crashes :D

I think the worst thing you guys could ever do is grow up.
Amen!
Then why watch
@@roycole4619 I think the original commenter meant as in age not the channel
@@roycole4619 chees
Yup
You guys never stop blowing my mind. The A10 was amazing but what if u tried a large scale model of an osprey if anyone could pull it off it would be you guys
Try making two big RC planes, put airsoft guns on them, and dogfight!
Or make it big enough for a paintball gun, that way you can see the hit marks.
Bullet Bill is fantastic.
I've been enjoying your build videos, I definitely have to get some of your planes.
It's my favorite plane from ww2 and I can't find one. Can you please make a p-63
You guys really pushing the limit, super awesome!
Love you guys but trade coffee is not a good sponsor. They dropped a youtiber due to false claims. Be careful with them.
Yep. Was thinking similar.... Don't get too attached to them as a sponsor, guys. The moment you say or do something someone decides is racist (such as enjoying a hobby that involves aircraft, because that's probably racist these days), they'll end it.
I skipped the ad by double tapping the right edge of the screen a few times.
I'd love to see this in the flight test store! It looks awesome! Keep it up!
Please release plans, build video, and kit!!! Love it!
This channel is literally flying endorphins. So glad you continued until you got it to fly that was so gratifying to watch.
Awesome build guys! Love to see a build video/kit!
Great creativity and the fun! I'm also intrigued by the B-17 at 2:25, pointed out by another viewer! How about a FT B-17? Warbirds and R/C belong together!
SO GOOD! So good to see JBix again! BULLET BILL NEEDS TO APPEAR IN FFE'19 COMBAT! 👍👍👍🤣🤗 (lol I feel like most of my designs are not "aerodynamically responsible!" 😂
Love that you never gave up, so cool to see an RC Bullet Bill!
That’s actually one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.
Bullet bill has flames out the back like a rocket. Why not make a tail to help with stability and paint it and shape it to loosely resemble fire shooting out? I think that would look cool!
I absolutely need build plans of this! I would love that!
Dude, that was the coolest thing I think I've ever seen. That should be mass produced.
This was so awesome. Make this a build kit ASAP.
Yes josh!!!! speed build please or even plans amazing work guys I'm in stitches.
You did it great again! 👏
02:46 the face of that roaster is hilarious!!
"HeLlO SiR, would you like some of my freshly roasted BLEHHHHHHH"
This would be a great thing to fly at flying events where general public shows up. The kids would love it!
Awesome, this was a FT episode that made me think about the original project builds!
It looks fun just tossing it back and forth as a chucker.
bullet bill build kit please! looks like alot of fun, looks great in the air i didnt think it was gonna fly very cartoonish presence in the air
Pusher prop in the back with the other two props would have been cool, a kit would be awesome i'd buy it!
I have to have bullet bill in my collection!!! If you guys don't make the kit please make the plans and a build video! This is fantastic!
Build Plans and/or kit is a must! But? Noticed the hole in front. Future revision to a ducted fan for better stability?
Now that was awesome. Great work guys.
The machining on your motors is sweet!
Maybe try a Bullet Bill with no wings, but use an EDF motor (or just an interior mounted prop with an air inlet in the center of the nose) in the center and if the whole object spins along it's axis it may fly stable
I would totally love to build my own Bullet Bill. Keep up the awesome work!
Love the video! New inspiration for a video; flying Mario Cart race. Use anchored balloons for the track. Build flying Mario carts.
That looks really sick upgraded Bullet Bill awesome
Bullet Bill 2.0 is still badass keep up the great work Bob Ross.
Love the video and me and my boys would love to see that as a build kit we would have so much fun flying it
You guys are brilliant. Stop having so much fun on the job... it's not fair. 😁
