That actually makes me uneasy, someone can get the impression that it’s not a big deal to bung an aircraft together on your own and go fly. Very good way to get injured or killed.

      Virat Vaid I kind of get what he’s saying though. I think Boeing made the 737 max way to complicated with systems like the MCAS designed to override something a basic private pilot should know how to avoid (an inadvertent stall). If you know the basics this airplane is so simplistic you’ll virtually never get into trouble.

      Sckupz if you look at the interior of the plane, you can see only one gauge for airspeed (I think). Usually the place where the gauges are placed are called the instrument panel, and since there is one gauge it is extremely simple. I hope this helps.

Whatever you do dont just jump into this, approach it very carefully. I recommend taking some flight lessons and asking a lot of questions while in the air related to your goal from whoever the pilot is. You wont know every question to ask related to your goal, so ask the pilot to tell you the answers to the questions you dont even know to ask.

    "nose heavy," "drag," "underpowered," "Doesn't want to climb" Look at your windscreen deflect, and it's incidence to the air. It's a canard fully pushing the air up, nose down, and stealing the prop's clean air. Think motorcycle not jib sail.

      Excellent point, it is like a barn door and it will effect the flying angle, but the drag and wash/turbulence over the prop would be really bad.
      If you want a screen, make it much smaller and curve it to deflect around. Best of luck and well done getting this far 😀

  • @HarmanRobotics
    @HarmanRobotics 5 років тому +28

    I am sure you know - an aft CG is very dangerous. Being a little nose heavy is much safer than being a little tail heavy. I hope that the the high thrust line has not fooled you into thinking that the nose is too heavy. I think you would also benefit from lowering the front of the engine mount structure so that the thrust line comes closer to the CG - ideally, the thrust line should pass through the CG. Hard to do with a top mounted pusher but you could come closer - and that would reduce the amount of nose down pitch-over under power.
    Should something go wrong requiring you to use your BRS, I would be very concerned that you would be able to find that handle behind your head during the chaos of an emergency. Your life would literally depend upon finding that handle. I would recommend getting an extension and put that handle either beside you or in front of you.
    12:33 Lastly, please remember to pull the pin (that red tag that says "remove before flight") on the BRS handle before flight. It is easier to remember to do this if it is within your view when seated, and it definitely should be on your checklist. You do have a checklist, right?

      @@FurryKeidran98 If the nose is a little heavy then you have to put more back pressure on the stick (or trim it out) to remain in level flight but the aircraft is very stable. If tail heavy the pitch control will be very twitchy and you risk stalling - and with an aft CG you may not be able to recover from the stall.

      @@HarmanRobotics Especially considering he has a T-tail configuration too. He could get into a deep stall configuration. An AFT CG wouldn't help him any in that scenario. Doubtful he could get into one of those states though. Thankfully that engine is providing a stable thrust component too, so even if it were possible, hopefully the moment would be strong enough to get him out. Looking at it more, I seriously doubt a deep stall is possible. The thrust line looks to be nearly parallel to the elevator/horizontal stabilizer.

    I've really got to admire this guy. It is one thing to cobble an RC plane together, thrash it around the sky & it matters not a jot if it prangs into the ground! But to pilot your own construction - you're either mad or a particular breed of the 'right-stuff. Neil Armstrong would be proud of you Peter Sripol!

      Needs to build his own Saturn V rocket next, just like Armstrong did!

      Niele Armstong didnt make the Saturn V you twit. He worked on the soyuz. There is u-tube video for it that confirms the TRUTH
