Sling already has the successful Sling HW with a Rotax 916iS. My 2c is that Van's must move forward and incorporate more modern FADEC engines like the one's from Rotax and the ULPower UL520 200 - 220hp series.
I was at Osckosh in 1982 with family friends who had entered a 1940s Luscombe in the classic catagory. I was 14 at the time and had the job of polishing the finger prints out of the polished aluminum surfaces. At the time I followed instructions without question but if I had to do over presently many of the people in the background of this video would have been been at best verbally assalted!
How is that remotely interesting to anyone watching this video? Do you really think anyone came here to find out when you came to Osh and how old you were?
You couldn't show the aircraft the entire time you had the conversation? Two guys talking...... Boring..... Not as informative as LOOKING (at the VIDEO) of the aircraft.
Thanks, one of the best detailed interviews I have seen on he RV15 yet.
Ok, and dou you know the airfoil now?
Agreed.
Great interview and great questions. Thank you.
Really amazing work guys! I think this just took the #1 spot in my future dream airplane list. Well done!
Excellent interview by you both!
Fantastic interview! Well done.
Great interview! Thank you :)
Flying on drag for stability reminds me of riding motorbikes. Using slight rear brake and increased rpm for slow speed stability.
I learnt so much about aerodynamics from this video. wow! This is Great content Sir!
I can sure see the old helio characters in this plane... I had wondered if that impacted the design at all.
Enjoyed this. Slowly liking this plane more and more. I want one on floats too!
Awesome interview!
A float plane sounds terrific! Design it with the attach points.
Great interview, lots of good answers that are not published anywhere else :D
Yes ! I can't wait for the kit with floats. Make it !
I want one! But please please make the cowling shiny aluminium too.
Any idea how slow will it fly solo and at gross weight approximately ???? 😀

A really great and informative interview
Yeah I’m sold
the guys at Murphy Aircraft are probably not sleeping very well right now.
Awesome!

@@slowery43 I found it modestly interesting. Funny anecdote that shares more about what Oshkosh has been and is.
Not sure there's a hole in the market, as it's currently occupied by the Rans S-21, but it's another option in an area of high demand.
Great interview and very informative. Well done.
How do the dimensions compare to the bearhawk 4 ?
Ed, you didn't ask the most important question: can it be flown with the doors off so we can skydive out of it? ;-)
Was that Trevor Jacob in the background wondering the same thing?😁
No, the most important question is how slow will it fly, soloand at gross???
What’s the cabin width? Still looks less than 48” which would be a shame.
Same as C182
So still to small for 2 big guys
I think it will be cheaper for everyone, if these two big guys get smaller 😀
Ya, don’t jump in a Murphy Super Rebel or Moose and expect good roll response.
Is it push rod controls or cables
Pushrods
So…. The perfect airplane!!!!!
Hi.
Why's no-one asked if it will be basic aerobatics capable yet?
Will it be?
I want one on floats, three!
Very cool.
I want one in floats too! Great to hear some of the design was inspired by the Helio Courier
I cant believe the amount of people putting their grubby hands all over the aircraft....no respect...
Does every old guy have to put fingerprints all over??
Watch out...Hoagers will ream you for noticing.
Little man big man

I know it's not the same guy, but screw you Rian Johnson for ruining Star Wars. Sorry... had to say it.
