Nice to hear the 'Clear!'....then actually look to be sure. All too many times I see someone yell 'Clear!' And immediately start cranking the engine....
From the old Pilots I always thought " IFR " stood for " I Follow Roads "!!-😂😂😂
Buonissime prestazioni del tuo aereo. La campagna verde è molto grande, il paesaggio bello. Saluti da Roma 🇮🇹
I like how you explain everyting so clearly to your passenger.
Landings getting smooth!!! I have a little over 50hrs in my Cruzer I built, still working on trying to grease those.
Nice landing at Cooks.
Awesome video
Nice video Matt. I'm noticing there are no streamline fairings on the lift struts. With a Kitfox, you gain between 10 and 15 mph in cruise by fairing the struts. I'm guessing you would pick up close to 10 mph in cruise. Your struts look to be shorter than the Kitfox. It's free speed once they are installed. Jim
Very cool!!
Don't forget to tell the passenger they should practice flapping there arms incase there is an emergency 😂 if they ask why it will help keep the pilot cool with air flow because the propelr usually does that job 😂
Nice
Hey Matt, I watched a few of your videos. Pretty kool. I recently bought a STOL CH750 with a 912is. I have a couple of GoPros and I’d like to make some “home” videos. Can you recommend an app to edit and save or post to UA-cam? I’m in Eastern Ontario. Hope to meet some of the other owners at fly ins.
Thanks JD
I don't know if I can actually. I use PowerDirector19 but its got a pretty steep learning curve. I'm not sure what to recommend for an easier video editor. A quick Google search shows that maybe ClipChamp might be a good place to start. Good luck! 🙂
Thanks I will look into it.
Matt, I noticed you have a Kanardia Digi installed for your EMS for the Rotax. Are you running 4 EGT and 4 CHT probes? I'm building and want to purchase a Kanardia for my Rotax 912. One last question, if I may.... did the unit come with any probes? Great Vid's.
I do have 4 EGT probes but the unit did not come with them. You can use most any probe as the unit has the ability to be programmed to use almost any of the popular ones.
Thanks Matt ! and Thanks for the fun videos ! I'm building a Chinook DR and watch some of your older videos a lot ! I built a 701 years ago and really had a lot of fun in it ! Keep making your videos. Take care ! My wife says HI VICKI !
If you can c through the cloud its not a cloud😂
