Sensational Globulational ability you have! Awesome plane and awesome flying as per usual👏👏👏 Keep going!!
Hahaha! Hey Alex! Thanks man! So honored to hear that from the hot glue globulation expert!! Thanks for watching my stuff man it means a lot!
Seeing people’s doubts as a challenge is literally how innovation occurs. I hope you get the support to keep doing this.
it's also really funny i think
Sorry it was late guys something bad happened with my Internet. Literally took 4 hours to upload 😭.
That's alright
Nice profession you picked! Lol! It looks so weird when it's flying! I think you need to make one with with an excess of power, and try high alpha, all kinds of other flight aerobics. Lastly, Could you fly it through an piece of foam with that goofy shape? Airplane, jenga or Tetris?
You take me back to my childhood. As a ten-year-old (50 years ago) I was building and flying my own designs. I was raised poor, so I never had kits to work with, so I started buying the Guillows clip-together airplanes for .35 cents and cutting them up for my balsa source, and sometimes resorting to toothpicks and toilet paper. I'd be out in my yard chucking these unique designs in the air and watching them soar. My dad, unlike yours, was too busy drinking beer and smoking cigarettes to care. Never once did he come out and share my thrill and flying one of my creations. How lucky your are to have a dad that shares your victories and defeats. But one thing you do that I also did as a kid was to do a hand launch in your room from one hand to the other, and have the ability to assess the flight characteristics solely on those few feet of free flight. You took me back 50 years, and I know that with the support you have, and the ability to see the wind flowing over a wing, you will go far. You rock!
That was an awesome story! Thanks for sharing!❤
I love your spirit.
Back when Bernoullis principal was the one and only explanation for how a wing generated lift I was in college taking an aerodynamics course. It absolutely baffled me how they could teach that the curve on the top of a wing sucked a plane into the air and that was the one and only way that a wing created lift. I thought about all of the flat plate wings on the corner store chuck gliders that I loved as a kid. When I asked the instructor how they flew he said that the angle of attack in essence created a curve on the top of the wing. He followed up by saying that’s why an undercambered wing cannot fly upside down. The next day I brought in my electric Slow Stick with an undercambered wing and proceeded to fly a whole battery pack upside down for the whole class….😂
Keep questioning what you are taught and told!!!
Your instructor's principals are 100% correct. The only thing you did was changing the angle of attack. Try using a undercambered propeller next time you power your aircraft.
You can hear how proud your dad is. Makes me think of my son when he was around your age.
it's like half a biplane :). I love how you're disproving the naysayers in a positive way, and am looking forward to following along.
Don't forget that in ground effect that the induced drag would decrease. This could explain a yaw moment that you'd have to counter with rudder input. Keep up the awesome videos!
This video has inspired me to start building wacky planes. Keep up the good work!
It is really cool to see you explore more properties of this design. Unfortunately most other channels take the 'one and done' approach and rush into building new stuff too soon.
The algorithm has blessed a few of your videos, and now that you have a good baseline audience, all you need to do is keep up the quality content and let your hard work speak for itself. Best of luck mate
that thing still gives tie-fighter vibes for some reason. Love it
Just wanted to say fairplay to your dad, supportive parents are the best. Loving your videos, keep up the good work :)
as a first year aerospace engineering student, finding this channel is such a blessing , hope some day i become capable enough to work with you
Thank you guys so much for all the support and getting me to where I am now. Here is my Patreon thank you guys so much for checking it out. patreon.com/EternalProgression?Link&
🔴 What Is Islam?
🔴 Islam is not just another religion.
🔵 It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham.
🔴 Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God.
🔵 It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone.
🔴 It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine.
🌍 The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as:
📖 { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4) 📚
🔴 Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus.
🔵 Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him.
.
Love your videos and thought process. If you don't have a college degree, split your money between them. A video from an engineer with your presence will make bank. Get your Masters with what you earn, and you'll always have work. Sorry to be a dad, but love your stuff and you have great potential
It could benefit from a little dihedral.... then it should auto correct back into more of a straight line.
Thats probably why it holds a turn....
@@cysieger5212 👉🔴What Do Muslims Believe about Jesus?
Muslims respect and revere Jesus (peace be upon him). They consider him one of the greatest of God’s messengers to mankind. The Quran confirms his virgin birth, and a chapter of the Quran is entitled ‘Maryam’ (Mary). The Quran describes the birth of Jesus as follows:
(Remember) when the angels said, “O Mary, God gives you good news of a word from Him (God), whose name is the Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, revered in this world and the Hereafter, and one of those brought near (to God). He will speak to the people from his cradle and as a man, and he is of the righteous.” She said, “My Lord, how can I have a child when no mortal has touched me?” He said, “So (it will be). God creates what He wills. If He decrees a thing, He says to it only, ‘Be!’ and it is.” (Quran, 3:45-47)
Jesus was born miraculously by the command of God, the same command that had brought Adam into being with neither a father nor a mother. God has said:
The case of Jesus with God is like the case of Adam. He created him from dust, and then He said to him, “Be!” and he came into being. (Quran, 3:59)
During his prophetic mission, Jesus performed many miracles. God tells us that Jesus said:
“I have come to you with a sign from your Lord. I make for you the shape of a bird out of clay, I breathe into it, and it becomes a bird by God’s permission. I heal the blind from birth and the leper. And I bring the dead to life by God’s permission. And I tell you what you eat and what you store in your houses....” (Quran, 3:49)
Muslims believe that Jesus was not crucified. It was the plan of Jesus’ enemies to crucify him, but God saved him and raised him up to Him. And the likeness of Jesus was put over another man. Jesus’ enemies took this man and crucified him, thinking that he was Jesus. God has said:
...They said, “We killed the Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of God.” They did not kill him, nor did they crucify him, but the likeness of him was put on another man (and they killed that man)... (Quran, 4:157)
Neither Muhammad nor Jesus came to change the basic doctrine of the belief in one God, brought by earlier prophets, but rather to confirm and renew it.
Ok I'm convinced about the turning direction now. Thanks 😁
It does not matter how many times, or in what way, shape or form you explain it, there will always be a couple of haters. You can literally show them the video, and they will still not believe it. Lmao!
Keep doing what you're doing, you're doing everything right to become popular just like the Safety Third people have. Easy and pretty cheap tip for even better vids is to put some acoustic foam in your room to improve your room audio.
Loved the Mario music as you were trying to complete "Level 1- flying in ground effect".😂
The barrel rolls were absolutely amazing! It looked so crazy! Very nice video
Now he's getting down to the real questions!
Wondering how it would react scaled up significantly, so that the wing loading is less, I think that the effect of the offset wings should be bigger? Also would like to see how a larger version reacts to side slips in different directions🤔.
Love the videos, I've got a feeling this channel is gonna be huge in the next couple of years, keep it up!!
I hope you continue to experiment and improve the offset plane. It's really one of the most visually striking rc planes we've ever seen on youtube. I would love to see what the most extreme offset possibly would be, or any other interesting ideas you have. Keep up the great work!!
Love the interaction with your dad.
I saw the first video, I already knew it would work and now there people complaining even more? Gees! accept the fact you are wrong. All in all, great video!
One thing that helped me like right turns when I was learning to fly RC was doing figure eights. Start a L hand turn, then do a R hand turn. Follow with a L hand turn, then another R hand. It was a challenge at first, then became fun!
I am the one that posted the ground effect exception.
Glad to see you testing and learning!
If i had equipment like we have now way back then...I could have had as much fun as you!
Keep it up!
Many years ago at the desert I flew a sailplane at 180mph 6 inches off the ground for nearly 5 miles. With almost no energy lost. Was able to pull up at the end of the run to about 500 ft agl and land normally.
Amazing how the induced drag was almost non existent! If only I could do the same with parasitic drag.
😅 blows my mind how well this works, thanks for putting so many questions to rest. Especially love fix via globules, keep sending that Tiny Trainer!
Thanks for showing us the right turn. I was one of the people that called ya out. Thanks
Love the videos and your camera presence. Seeing you enjoy every part of the process, even the mishaps and crashes makes it fun to watch! Commenting for the algorithm, I hope you make it big on this platform!
When i that you had uploaded, i got so excited!!!
Great follow-up video! I knew it was going to fly right off the bat. Great execution. Subscribed👍
That is the craziest looking thing I've ever seen fly, absolutely awesome, Glad to see you're channel growing, grest job 👍🏻✌🏻
That's so cool! One interesting thing about the loop. I think I saw the plane making a roll to the left during the loop (when it was climbing). I think it was because the upper wing stalled, giving the aircraft unbalances lift.
It was actually really cool to see that in action :)
Awesome.
I don’t know what to comment but I find this channel very nice and underrated so I wanna comment something to help boost you in the yt algorithm so more people see these amazing videos so I think these experiments are interesting and I hope you get more subs.😅
Love to see the channel going pro!
Got to the 1st offset wings video after this one was already out.
I'd love to see either:
- the body shifted all the way down against the bottom wing (or all the way up against the top wing)
- same relative positions but one wing way smaller than the other.
My prediction would be that these variations perform horribly (if they are at all flyable), because the net torque on the body would be far from zero, an then rolling would become a nightmare.
I believed it in the first video itself. By the way beautiful landscape you go there.
Crazy Contraption... Watching it fly is strange looking lol and does not look like it should fly haha. I hope this ends up being your career as well! Good luck my friend! Edit: and love your videos mate keep it up! 👍
a cylinder rc plane would be really cool like the cylinder paper planes
You should try making a plane with two different shape wings on each side. Maybe one with a high aspect ratio and one with a low aspect ratio.
I’m really inspired I used to always build planes like v tails, f14 tomcat and many more but your idea is really nice keep it up I have trust in u
that was great... now redesign the wheel... let's try square if it works... lol... no really... great stuff!
Keep asking questions, doing crazy stuff, and having fun. Thanks for the video.
Love the video. your storytelling is getting better with each video. Cant wait for all your future content. What vtx and camera setup did you use here?
Thx man! Good to hear it’s getting better each video!
So the camera is a run cam nano

The heck! You build some crazy aeroplanes, dude. Hopefully in the near future I will be flying passenger in one of your weird birds. Even if it kills me. 😂
Wooow
The fact that i recognized every background song in thus video tells me that i am where my people are.
Hahaha awesome dude 😎. HOME and LAKEY INSPIRED.
@@eternalprogression Thanks for the inspiration! and solid video
@@Dohpamine_Design thx man!
In addition to the previous video, you should try to make a one wing airplane. One big wing on one side and a counter weight on the other, so is more clear that the offset isn't the issue. (I think, this was probably done during WW2 scientific development)
Awesome can’t wait to see this video! 🎉
I’m so happy to see your channel growing! You really deserve it
Congratulations for your new found UA-cam career :)
bro you were mentioned on petersirpols channel wish you success
i like your energy
This video was a lot of fun to watch :)
I love his enthusiasm. Great video. BlueSkies and follow your Excitement, I subscribed...Nasmaste
mmmmm kinda thinking about doing patreon just cause your content so interesting, DO IT FOR DA SCIENCE
Another great video! I don't have any money, but if I was really rich I might maybe give you some. I kind of feel like for a full test of the design it would be better to make something designed for the ground effect, but then it might be uncontrollable. Also I think not a ton of people know what the ground effect is, and it might have been better to explain at the start. Either way great vid, can't wait for more!
This thing is so cool i wonder what Burt routan thinks of it 😁😁😁
But to be honest sell the shape to StarWars.....
Would be cool to see that clad as an imperial Fighter withe the sphere cockpit and the wings as those panels....
I'd love to put a design like this into a wind tunnel to see, what it does. Like, all the forces go through the Center of Lift anyway, but getting an aircraft like this balanced center of Gravity wise would be a massive headache.
I love your channel. Very inventive. Very creative. I love that your dad is the cameraman. I would like to see you try and create a 3-D capable version of this plane.
Hear me out. A car with retractable wings that can only go fast enough to achieve ground effect. The vehicle can have both ground and/or air propulsion. Challenge: gain max speed, deploy wings, cross small body of water with ground effects. Bonus tip: the pivot point for the wings dont need to be directly over each other, which allows for the wings to be on the same plane, if you like.
Nice video. Like your style of experiment building. Now let's see you build one with a off center tail elevator and normal main wing. Then one with main wing and elevator off center? LOL
Honestly as a pilot I knew the offed wing would fly it’s basic aerodynamics as long as both wings produce the same lift at the same point just like it would if the wings were on the same level it’s perfectly fine now low level flight is fine but actually flying the plane from rollout to takeoff would bring very interesting complications because the high wing is going to leave ground effect faster so the concern with that would be stalling one wing on takeoff if you didn’t build up enough speed to properly takeoff
Yay! You are doing great! Keep it up!
Great job. Keep coming out with great videos
thanks for the video. comment for the channel
Ok you caught me, I Will subscribe to you.
Your videos are too much interesting.
I love the way it kind of wavers and wobbles sometimes, it feels like the plane itself has an Opinion in how it's flown. Do you think this half-biplane design would work on a seaplane? Or would the pontoons impact the balance too much? Keep up the good work, but most importantly, keep having fun!
Now build an ultralight please :)
I don't know about you, but I was pretty convinced it could fly when i saw it fly in the last video.
one of those things where it depends how you define it. Only the bottom wing will be in ground effect, and you will have to hold some right roll to keep it level but the top wing wont be doing NOTHING, it will just be doing less work, and the bottom wing will be doing more work and a little more efficiently because ground effect.
The important thing about ground effect is its hard to use on models because the distance is so small. Its easier to smoothly fly close to the ground with a bigger plane that you are sitting in than with a small plane you fly from a distance.
Well done..!
We’re witnessing the birth of the next Burt Rutan.
I love your videos, you are doing great.
Great! Now make an X-wing
Keep it up.
this is amazzing!!!!
Great job!!!
You're really talented. You seem to have very good building or flying skills. But Low-flying along the road is just that, low-flying along the road. Ground effect is when you have nose high and low air speeds. Your airplane was nose level and at a fairly decent speed. Your design makes landings nearly impossible. I'm not talking about your model, I'm talking about a real airplane. It would never be able to land. Once in ground effect with the nose high and low air speed that low wing lift right up over the top of the airplane. And land on its back. You have almost a wing span vertical clearance between the two wings. Ground effect normally happens about half the wing span from the ground. Remember you can make model airplanes do things the real ones could never do.
You did really good!
Let's Go 🔥
Yo, we need to do some sort of a collab! This stuff is awesome!
Awesome vid
how about making your vertical supports into flight surfaces too - so it can fly on its side ?
Hey, I’ve watched all your videos and you’re amazing! I love aviation and planes in general and have always wanted to build a flying machine but I don’t know CAD and I don’t have a 3D printer. I really want to actually start making some silly little flying contraptions so do you have any tips on starting out?
Yes! I would learn onshape. It’s free and runs on almost anything. Just come up with a simple design to start out. Something like an attachment for your phone that connects to your Xbox controller. Or just a pencil box. or even a fidget, spinner. And if you enjoyed doing that, and you learned a lot THEN I’d get a printer. I’d just get a cheep one for like $100. And start printing! And when you do start printing, just know that your object will probably be different when you print it in real life, you’re just gonna have to reiterate it a few times and that’s normal. Usually when you print it it’s also like .2 mm bigger in real life in certain dimensions. So you might have to accommodate for that. One really important tool you have to have if you’re gonna design something that you want to interact with another object is digital calipers you can get them from Amazon. So if you wanted something to hold onto your phone, you would want an accurate measurement of the phone with the calipers. And that’s it. If you have a hard time learning Onshape, I’d try something else like Tinker cab and as always look stuff up on UA-cam, watch some videos and you can learn a lot! I hope this helps. Thanks for the comment!

Hype
How do you think the Z wing would go with a barrel roll, most rc models will perform more of a cork screw not really a barrel roll nice and tight , Just curious the z wing could be extremly aerobatic with enough power. Keep it up great stuff.
😎👍
I don't get why people doubt that this plane would fly just as any other except for ground effect. Same amount of lift on both sides, same angle of attach, same surface area and shape
I wonder if longer wings would produce a more noticeable difference in balance while in ground effect. .. Cool experiment though.
With sufficient power in the propeller, ANYTHING can fly. But my question would be : do you need to correct with the control surfaces all the time ?
You did do a "hands off" flight in this episode but it was almost vertical to your position, could you do a hands off flight flying away or towards the camera ?
What is the thrust of your propeller ?
He did what you asked in the video already.
How does the split wing fly different than a regular plane? When you did the barrel rolls coming straight at the camera it looked like it was made for it and it looked like it was from another world.
I think the reason why this plane fly like normal plane is because the wing have same air density, it will feel not normal if the upper wing are so tall so have different air density.
Nice young friend. Now try inverted z shape wings. Do we have a winner now?
If you ever need inspiration, read the biography of Robert Goddard. They laughed at him his entire life, but today he is considered as the father of rocketry.
i don't know much about flight but I would say your plane rolls because your center of gravity has changed. If your roll axis allowed your wings to be parallel to the ground it might not want to turn. Just a thought.
Make only one wing offset, and then try turning left and right. Are turning to both directions the same?
I love this cause its basically half a biplane, just not in the way you’d think lol
Left turn machine
