This aircraft is not practical in anyway! It’s not built for most, or really any people. It’s built for me, and I’m already loving it!

I almost fell off my chair when you revealed that powerplant!!
That reveal gave me chills.
Right? This is nuts and I can't wait. What a reveal man.
I was expecting maybe the old Wilga engine...not 500 screaming ponies!
@@eugene4981
Yep that's exactly what I was thinking too...😜🤣😂
I'm thinking Gee Bee has a kid with a Carbon Cub.
Person #1: I looks like the engine is going to be under the leading edge. Where are you going to sit?
Mike: Why in the tail section of course.
Mike is the living embodiment of "Because i can"
As a 32 year old dad, I never thought another man would inspire me to do anything. But because of Mike I have not only started going to school to get my engineering degree, but I’m also taking classes at Deer Valley Airport to get my private pilots license! Thank you mike you are certainly doing more than you will ever know.
That makes you an inspiration for me as well as Mike!
Seriously, good luck.
How are things going? Did you manage to start studying? Hope so.
Is anyone else addicted to Mike's videos? Like to the point where you drop what you're doing to watch them as soon as they drop?
Am just in love..I love aviation/....
WOW Mike how tall or long is your rudder going to be?
Right here! :)
DO NOT open Utube until lunch breack.. that's my policy !! lol
@@gilbertpeyron7751 LOL :P
Mr Patey, you are the right kind of crazy. The world needs more of you and your brother!
Mike, Next time your flying Draco can you please get some cockpit video of your STOL takeoffs and landings from the pilot's perspective. Thank you so much for the Videos.
Great idea
Oh yes, that would be so cool
Check out Trent Palmer & Cory Robin, Or all his flyingcowboys buddies have awesome footage inside Draco.
But I get it it would be a lot nicer if Mike would do it, talk over the tiger like Squat and launch, all the way to reverse and thrust I want to know about it all Mike! Get back to work!
I’d love to see GOPRO type footage from inside the cockpit as well as under the forward fuselage.
Joe, how about this! Mike would you take me for a ride so I can video the dash?
Mike you're not crazy you're a box full of nuts. And that's why we luv you. You can do the things some of us wish we could do.
I beg to differ on your calculation of nuts. First, I definitely think you are off on the scale. I don't think we are working on the peanut or even walnut range. We are talking coconuts here for sure. Second, this isn't a box full quantity situation. I submit a loaded A380 for your consideration on quantity. What would he do with a Merlin or an Allison ...
@@Scottmaumee who knows ? 😄😄😄 on the Merlin? Who knows a pinto maybe ?
Life is like a box of chocolates! 😁
@@Scottmaumee Ewwwww I vote for an Allison powered Super Cub!!! The pilot would have to sit on the tail but no matter, it would still go fast.
Breaking all records as always. Race engine in a cub. Love it
Can’t wait to watch the build progress.
Back to work
When Mike Patey holds his hand up to signify ZERO it actually signifies 5 or 6 zeros;-)
🤣
:-D
He is trying to convince his wife. Like we all do. " Dear, it didn't cost very much, mostly just my time."
@@StevenCampbell1955 Mike's obviously not scrounging through the change jar to get through life. I'm sure the checking account is the least of his wife's worries.
"When you get 2 inches off the ground and you're flying - life does not get any better!"
Man, you totally got me there! This is so damn true, I can't really tell you. Flying changed my whole life, even though it's "only" LSA's. To anybody out there, if you never got your feet off the ground in something with less than 6 seats - you're not alive at all!
I don't call this build crazy, I call it extreme. It's guys like you that advance general aviation. The aircraft industry has been fairly stagnant for many years in the light aircraft field. Dream on Mike!
Mike, you're not kidding when you say as soon as your 2 inches off the ground...life doesn't get any better. I still remember the feeling 35 years ago.
You guys provide some of the BEST content on all of youtube.!!!
The word, crazy, never enters my mind when watching these. Brilliant, imaginative, passionate, competitive, driven, innovative - all are more apt words.
Mike, when you get closer to prepping and painting Scrappy, please make us a series of great videos on how you go about getting a great finish on your aircraft. There are a lot of us who want to paint they planes, and we could use you knowledge and skills to do the job! A big KUDOS for all that you do in making planes, and then sharing your expertise with us. You are teaching hundreds of us to be the kind of meticulous craftsman on our planes that you are. Keep those great videos coming. Thanks!!
i absolutely love your enthusiasm. playing with planes is beyond my financial reach, but i get to live vicariously through your videos. you smile your ass off, and its hard not to do the same
I was learning to fly before I left for university last September and haven't flown since and honestly had lost the motivation to get back up there but watching theses vids along with the rest of TFC I've booked in some lessons! keep it up, can't wait to see this project develop
Really exciting and impractical seems to be the MO around the Patey workshop and we love it. I, for one, cannot wait to see a 500hp Cub. You're the mad man we all need.
Mike i love it, i'm 73yr's old & over 50yr's a A/P bush mech for UN-NGO's in Africa, cant wait to see Scrappy unfold on the vid's ,Thanks mike ,makes me feel young again.
Your enthusiasm is contagious!! Thanks for taking us along on this adventure. Thank you for sharing your talent, engineering knowledge and time. Especially your time, you share this for free and I appreciate the time it takes you. Stay safe
I dont build planes ... I cant even fly them ..... but golly gosh I enjoy watching what you do with them Mike !!
I am working on my license right now, Mike. I get my bachelors in ME next may then finish up the PPL! Cant wait! Maybe we could fly someday. I am stoked to see Scrappy when its done
Brother I want to tell you that your enthusiasm is absolutely intoxicating and infectious I don't see how anybody could watch one of your videos and not get amped up motivational speaker entrepreneur business owner airplane racer airplane designer and Builder brother I ain't telling you anything you don't already know but you are the man God bless you my friend hopefully one day I'll see you up in the air and you will know me by the grin on my face and the hootin and hollerin that's coming from the cockpit.
Mike I was turned onto your channel through HeavyD. I love your enthusiasm and the love for whatever it is your working on. I could sit and listen to your stories for hours with the details and excitement put into them. I think I remember seeing your Jeep back around 2000 somewhere in Orem where it was parked a bunch. Anyway love what your doing and maybe one day I’ll get the guts to take some lessons.
Cannot wait to see how this turns out Mike! Amazing!
I couldn't find you at Osh Gosh on Monday! But I found your brother and Best Tugs booth! Great time, and amazing products! Love the videos.
Mike, I have 38 hours in my log book, all with-in a 3 month window, back in 2014. I was flying scared and quit. After watching you and the Flying Cowboys, I decided to pick up where I left off. Thanks
I am super pumped to watch this plane come together. I love your enthusiasm and motivation. Always wanted to fly. I finally retired and now I’m gonna try to fulfill my dream. It all got fire back up watching STOL and seeing Draco at Osh Kosh. Thanks for the boost.
Man, I can't wait for the videos to start coming....... This is SOOOOOO much better that ANYTHING!!!!! on TV.
There's no replacement for displacement!!!! Can't wait to see this thing take to the air.
Can't wait to HEAR it on a fly by. Going to have some good ear protection in the hangar
My chances of flying days ended with a broken neck. But my passion for building my visions never left me. I love your passion for dreaming and then building beyond the norm. The fact that you’re taking the time to share it is much appreciated. Fun stuff!!!
I loved that last line. When you get two inches off the ground life doesn't get any better. This is sooo true. Love your work Mike!
That thing is going to be crazy! Can't wait to watch the build.
Sir, you are absolutely batshit crazy and i love every single bit of it!
I'll second that!
That is exactly why I watch your videos. You are not normal. That is a good thing. That is why you are so successful. Build on. Blessings
Never been off the ground but after watching draco and seeing this build it makes the dream of living in the Alaskan Bush and puts a huge twist to it .... your very inspiring Mike .... God bless you and you family
Mike Patey-Mad Scientist!!!! When you pulled the blanket off the 780 I got a chub
More like Mad Engineer.
Because of Draco I'm saving money to do my pilots license and I can't wait to see the madness of scrappy come to life
I love it. I'm so hooked. The way you put in the old footage in the video way awesome. I hope to see more editing like that. I'm super excited to see more videos on your progress and defiantly want to see Scrappy some day!
My love for aviation started when I was just a little child over 20 years ago flying for the first time in a Cessna 180 on floats. Now 20 years later, I have my Airframe license, and just passed my Powerplant written, working on my FCC. Then hopefully in the years to come to get my pilots license, run a GA friendly maintenance hangar, and own the Cessna 180 that started my passion over 20 years ago!
You have been an amazing inspiration for me, and many others!
When it comes to aviation, you are the Howard Hughes of our time!
Scrappy is what you get when you tell Mike "That's impossible"... Then you lose that bet.
I drop everything I'm doing when you upload a vid and I'm so much more productive the rest of the week.
Mike I built my 200mph RC Turbine Jet while watching your videos. Really inspired me to keep going and be bold with new ideas. Thanks!
For awhile now I've been toying with the idea of building an aircraft, and I've been making or modifying plans. After seeing you do all of this I might take the dive in.
Of course Mike is putting an insane engine in Scrappy. Right on!
Don
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. You’re the MAN !
Mr. Patel....YOU Sir are awesome. Love all the series you and Trent etc have done. As is everyone, so happy no one was hurt in the Draco incident. I love the concept of Scrappy and can't wait to see the progress. I'm 73 and was a private pilot for over 30 years. Lost my medical for vision reasons. You are so right on with the 2" off the ground comment......and encouraging others to become licensed pilots. Thank you again Sir.
I fly my 1946 85 hp Champ to relax and get away from it all, sometimes for just a few minutes but man does it relieve stress! It's cool to see others enjoy flying and building just because they can! Keep it up your an inspiration!
Just don't yank the wings off "scrappy"! LOL
No worries with large enough appendages hanging low and aft even without wings he could land vertical
When I finally manage to get my pilots license and build my plane. I'm having a sticker made that reads "MMMDI" Mike Made Me Do It!
From a 53 year old truck driver I got to say you make general aviation exciting in way no one else is doing. Like the dude said at High Sierra, the Patey boys are challenging the rules of aviation as we know them? Can't wait to see scrappy take shape and I'm stoked to be in from the start. Now, back to work..
Mike, I am not a pilot but got started watching your videos because of Draco catching my eye. I have really enjoyed watching you go through the modifications you have done to Draco and look forward to seeing the same for Scrappy. Seeing all the fun that you have flying has got me thinking of getting my pilots license, thanks for sharing with us.
So, how many KWh will the battery bank be to run the motor?
LMAO... Cases Of Nitro-Methane & A Bic...
So Scrappy isn't a plane with an engine, but an engine with some plane around it. Nice.
It's an aerodynamically optimized engine :)
I’m hooked on your video’s. You are such a amazing talented man with such a zest for life. Looking forward to what you do with scrappy. Thanks for bringing us along for such a fascinating ride.
I am absolutely stunned about your passion and positive energy you are sharing on all of your videos. ABSOLUTE PLEASURE to watch and...I would say "dream" about such experience :D!!!
Finger crossed for Scrapy.
When i wake up many a morning i say, how would Mike Patey live today?
I wanted to race airplane’s until I found out I have MS that messed up my dream’s of racing airplane’s now I’m fully in a power chair but I still love flying my RC helicopter’s and airplane’s
I've got enough hobbies to fit my lifestyle and will likely never get into aviation, but I watch your videos strictly because I find your passion for what you do to be extremely inspirational. Keep up the great work! I look forward to the progress you make on Scrappy.
I'm always super excited about the next Draco video. But Srappy videos are now right there next to Draco in my favourites. I love crazy, innovative and fun projects. Way to go Mike!!
A Pro Mod with wings......... I LIKE IT!!!!!!! Now GET BACK TO WORK>>>>
First! Now to watch the video!!
Oh my God !!!!! Im so glad this video came up on my You Tube Feed . I have been following the build but never seen the beginning , Patey your the man !!!
Mike never sell yourself short because you are amazing. You are a wonderful gift to all of us watching. I can see that a main part of your path in life is to let us all know that anything is possible, do what you love and live life to the fullest. Can't wait to the next video. Thank you for the great videos you give us.
This is comparable to the BOSS 429
Love the comparison. I got a boss 351 myself.
@@MegaDargar well let's see a pic. I'm an old street racer from Detroit.
You've heard "The Road not Taken," by Robert Frost where he writes "Two roads diverged... I took the road less traveled and it has made all the difference." Mike would read that and say let's make a third road.
I never liked doing what everyone else does and will usually go in the opposite direction just to be different. I completely understand Mike's brand of insanity and would really like to work for him.... if I could keep up. 😎
For many years I practiced the RC model Jets hobby. I really enjoyed the long process of putting them together in my workshop. I am new to this channel that brings me very good memories. My friends said that I enjoyed putting together more than flying ... and the truth is that it gave a very different satisfaction when I flew my jets. Thank you for sharing your passion with such enthusiasm and such a cool attitude.
Blown away!!!!! I can hardly wait to see how you do your weight and Ballance and where the CG ends up at !? Wow!! Thanks Mike I'm looking forward to seeing this thing fly ... Ed in Phoenix writes
Mike Patey, Mad Scientist; P.h.D
Scrappy will induce weather changes across the globe with that beast on the front! Possibly the first carbon Cub to land on the Moon!! 🤠🤣

Farmer Fpv Wait a second, that isn’t a real “read more” why do I keep falling for it
I can’t believe I clicked that
@@buffysaviation my bad bro, I actually fall for them aswell. Even my own, haha.
So EXCITED about this build!!! I’m on the edge of going experimental. Started in a J3, staying STOL for sure. Can’t wait to see you build this Mike!
Love the passion you have, the way you talk about these aircrafts is inspiring.
In before this damn things more powerful than god damn draco
dont know what a a tug is in your country but i wouldnt wear that shirt, lol
Best tugs is his company and tug is a machine/ device to pull vehicles, in this case airplanes while on the ground
A tug is a device used to tow an airplane.
besttugs.com is your answer
Mike,
You are an inspiration to me. Full of passion and knowledge.
Goog luck. Can't wait to see this project complete.
Mike is a true aviator hands down. When you have the passion and priority to be able to build exactly what you want, it turns to something exciting and adventurous. This is what this is about. Safe flyin mike!
You're awesome, Mike. I dont have an airplane or a pilot's license. I do however LOVE aviation and love your passion for it. You make amazing videos. Keep it up, sir!
Every time I watch one of your videos I wind up working on designing my own plane a little bit more. Thank you for the inspiration, I look forward to your next video
So awesome... Love Mikes attitude too, very captivating and really great at telling the story and build idea behind a plane.
Right now I am extremely excited. You always knock your projects out of the park so much enignerding that most of us can not compete. I am a machinist myself and I still can't believe what it takes to modify a Wilga, and knowing how to make an engine like that. I might transition myself over there for more machining and fabrication knowledge.
Mike. You always bring a smile to my face. From a fellow home builder in New Zealand. I say thank you.
Mike ... thanks for your enthusiastic videos and inspiring words for the next gen of aviators to go bold and think big.
Love the passion and enthusiasm ! Thinking outside the box and see what happens. Awesome channel !!
Mike, i love all your projects, energy and insane enthusiasm. Looking so much forward to following the Scrappy build. Can’t wait for the next episode ⚡️⚡️⚡️✈️⚡️⚡️⚡️
I love your innovation. It really drives the General Aviation to new possibilities. Please don’t stop.
It would been an awesome sleeper. But the sound the sweet sound gonna give it away. Love your work Mr. Patey!
Do it because you want to. Do it because you can. Find a way to make it happen. Love it.
Thanks for showing us your builds. It’s a lot of fun to watch!
Time to get back to work!
please stay safe the world needs people like you. crazy and off the hook fun love it
7:41 I am working on it just did my first solo X contry today. Your vids and the vids from the other flying cowboy's have been a huge inspiration
AMAZING! Love your videos Mike. Can’t wait to see the completion of Scrappy!
Awesome Mike!!! You got the 780 back!!! I remember seeing that plane and the sound was amazing!!! What a perfect engine to go in Scrappy! Congrats on gettting 'er back! Can't wait to see this build. You have our full attention!!
So, Mike .... 12 months ago - you and trent kicked my arse into gear to go and get my pilots certificate. Last weekend with less than 12 days left until the year was up, I did my final check ride and exam and can now fly recreational planes (light sport) almost anywhere in Australia. You were a big part of that starting and happening. Thank you :)
Great build. Looking forward to getting my PPL. Thanks to you and Trent for distracting my from my other hobbies long enough to study for my license and fly.
This is the build I’ve been most interested in! Being a fabricator an off-road racer/enthusiast, 10k hour helicopter pilot along with getting my fixed wing license in an Extra300. STOL is the direction I’m heading! Stole Drags are definitely intriguing but Back country remote landings are definitely in my future. I will be building one soon and can’t wait to see what you have dreamed up! Draco’s new legs are right up my alley love it.....keep on pushing the envelope Sir!!!
Your enthusiasm is exceeded only by your bank balance!! Amazing to watch you do this.
I really appreciate what you're doing Mike I'm a Gearhead love everything with a motor but know nothing about Aviation I came across a Draco video about a year ago and fell in love with it since then I've been watching all of Trent Palmer's videos and also yours it's been exciting to see and I'm actually learning a lot and I do want to take a class and become a pilot all because of you and Draco!
There is no substitute for cubic inches! The concept of using scrap parts from scrap aircraft to build something is awesome! My Frankenstein build is exactly that. I’ve traded my time and skill set for bits and opportunity to go through scrap bins where Ive worked. So awesome mate!
Can't wait to see more!! Please upload as much as you can on Draco and Scrappy, passionate builds!
I am looking forward to this build! Thanks for bringing us along
Awesome! Just don't go killing yourself while flying in it. Thanks, Mike. Looking forward to seeing it built and working.
