    I had to revisit this video after seeing the 1 about Revelaero's jet version being considered for a new race class at Reno. One of these designs with the six-cylinder D-Motor, UL-Power or Yamaha Apex @150hp seems VERY exciting to me! I hope we can follow these guys as they progress.

    What an exciting trio of aircraft these look to be!
    The thought of two turbines in an 1100 pound airframe is really quite remarkable, what stunning performance that promises!
    These men are clearly very highly knowledgeable and genuinely enthusiastic at their projected developments and it will be great to see your follow up videos.

    Iis my understanding that a tandem 2-place has already been designed by Jeff Kerlo. Hoping a side by side 2-place will also materialize.
    Jet engine looks much like the one used with the Sonex Subjet, the PBS Tj-100.

Looking at the PW600 series, it's actually a very small engine. Most is cowling and junk. And it's a turbofan so the jet itself is even smaller. We really need someone to make a clean basic version of such an engine for a fair price. Thinking large volume which will invariably follow if such an engine were offered at a reasonable price. And I'm thinking it could be very profitable at 50k$ which I'm guessing is about 20x cheaper than Pratt wants for one. It's such bullshit that that little hairdryer has to cost a million dollars.

      I came here to say that. Yes, you are correct. 700/1,100 is 0.6363... Subtract rolling resistance, integral of aerodynamic drag over takeoff run, etc. You end up with closer to 1/2g which is still pretty good almost double the acceleration of a fully loaded lumbering passenger jet.

      It looks like a Canard...for sure. Many subtle difference in appearance on the outside but MANY engineering changes internally etc. Flight will be proof of concept of course. Very much looking forward to going back and providing updates as this progresses along. Thank you so much for watching and SUBSCRIBING! I appreciate you.

      We've seen our share of copycats over the years, and it irks me to see it again. I don't remember when Rutan designed the VariEZE, but I know a flying EZE was on the ramp with my planes in 1984. That's 35 years ago, but this guy designed it 25 years ago. I'm sorry, there's something wrong with that picture. That's also the plane John Denver killed himself in. Well, Rutan's version, anyway. It is what it is, though. Don't mind me. I've been a pilot for 60 years and don't mind putting my opinion out there for the world to see. You just have to remember that my opinions are worth exactly what you paid for them. :-)

      We would have loved to... IF there was anything to follow up with. The "Partnership" fizzled on the design and we have NOT heard any new developments from them just yet other than needing/wanting more investors. Sorry. Was hoping this one was going to work out for... everyone.

    • @gradytalbot2018
      @gradytalbot2018 5 років тому +3

      Easy math. One lb. of thrust for a one pound object = 1 g acceleration. An 1,100 lb. object would need 3,300 lbs. of thrust for 3 g acceleration. (700 lb. of thrust per an 1,100 lb. object - 700/1,100 = .6363 g's). If confused, think of a one lb. object sitting on the floor. It is subject to gravity (1 g acceleration) trying to pull it through the floor, and the floor is exerting a one lb. resisting force (upward), so the object doesn't move.

    That's one pretty cool looking aircraft. I'm looking at hopefully starting scale development (scale modeling and RC for "proof of concept") this year. I'm setting up a kickstarter for some equipment (laser cutter/engraver and a resin 3D printer) for my vtol aircraft idea. Although the kickstarter is going to be set up for some war gaming products (dice tower, terrain and some scatter pieces), I'll be using the equipment for R&D on my aircraft design, battery charging system and some alternate propulsion ideas I've cooked up.
    Cool aircraft & great video. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work. I'm am subscribed.
