I invent something I check worldwide patent still zero result then I started drawing 3 blueprint, new factory, new software and new control, total 120 correct invented its more then cars parts, ps: I dont want be trolls, I want be real this

Xavion is love Xavion is life

I'm not a pilot, but I had to like and subscribe because this is so impressive

Austin, I read that Foreflight recently implemented the wake turbulence alert not unlike your xavion method from a few years ago. Did you work with them on the algorithm or did they do entirely on their own? I feel like they should give you credit at least!

I went to Tesla’s website to lease a car. It showed me a monthly payment and a down payment value for it. It sounded reasonable to me. Then they asked me to pay a non-refundable $250. I trusted them, because they are not dealers! Then I wen’t to the app, to file the documents. The down payment became 2 times, and also the monthly payment somewhat more than the website as well. Now if I cancel it, I lose $250. If I accept it I pay $3000 more than the website for a lease, not to buy, which needs another big cut for a bigger thief called the government. The way I see it is that a bunch of old thief ganged together, to prevent a new thief to join without paying its dues. You may watch godfather movies before considering to get a new car!

The patent scam? The patent scam

Dealer Statute Law! Sounds a lot like a protection racket to me.

you should do vulkan/metal

Such an informative video! how can this even be possible, So to buy a tesla you need to buy it in another state and then register it in California ?

Great Documentary!

I remember when patent trolls were a big problem. But not these says. What happened? Are they no longer a problem, or did the stories just get pushed out of public attention by COVID, politics, Boeing, et al?

Imagine if Austin would make a video where he flies irl WHILE coding something for xplane😳🎸that would be sooo BADASS

I got my Model 3 Performance online without speaking to a dealer. Best car buying experience ever. Even when I went to pick it up it was easier and far faster than any dealer! I would be perfectly happy never talking to a dealer again.

Absolute legend 🫡

i love xplane

Isn't that just Garmin Smartglide?

Can you let go of the controls and does it still keep spinning forever? In Msfs when you let go it just stops spinning.. Which is really annoying

Loved your blog write up on the pt6

Tesla is simply just a dream come true!...

For the life of me, I couldn’t find how XAvion records a track for later replay in XPlane. Where is the “record” button. It says “I record every takeoff”, I tried it and it didn’t work

Dear @Austinmeyer, on your website the incredibly amazing videos Airfoil Maker Tutorials and Plane Maker Tutorials are no longer listed on the youtubes! I really need to watch these- again! Please help :)

lol They don't wanna get the Clarkson treatment maybe. But fuck the government.

no, it need sot be in the foreground to do all its stuff

Does Xavion co-exist/run in background with other EFBs? I use Garmin Pilot on both iPad for cockpit and Android for planning/backup usage. Will Xavion run along side GP in the iPad. Paul.

absolutelt Austin, I love my Model X and never looking back!

I used Turo to rent one for a week before I got my Model S.

@austinmeyer Ref 30:38 ❤ Austin: This Xavion style optimum gliding approach could make the whole airline industry greener and help reduce carbonoxide emissions drastically! Xavion should be made mandatory for any aircraft except gliders!❤

They messed up with the wrong guy, Great job exposing those frauds.

absolutely disgusting. This was 7 years ago. What was the result?

As new solar is installed on every roof, I can imagine there will be differences in health care costs and outcomes in the states with personal freedoms where EVs can take advantage of cheap charging.

@Austin Meyer, in reference to Texas: I checked with the local Tesla "Display Room" ; I found out that you are correct about direct sales in Texas. How it works is they talk to you about it, show you the model and discuss the options, financing, etc. Then you go to the website and order your vehicle. When it's ready you determine a time and a place to deliver it. From here it got a little confusing but I believe the transfer of ownership happens in one of the states where it is legal then you register it in Texas as an out of state title transfer. Now what wasn't clear by the end of my conversation is whether it requires a trip to the POS state. I didn't get that impression but I didn't nail it down either. Now I'm not a huge fan of Teslas for a number of reasons (they do have that "Oooo shiny" factor though with all of their features and technology)but I am a huge fan of liberty and free enterprise. This is one of many areas that need to be corrected. It's a viable, legal and safe product, the state shouldn't be able to tell a company that they can't market to protect a favored system. Added in Edit: One can also arrange for a test drive except they call it a "product demonstration". I wonder if those semantics are related to the prohibition of sales direct to consumer.

EV cars? Where the power comes from? The batteries they use? When they use cero point reactors then we can talk about it. For now, no thank you. If you wonder, 20+ years in the car business.

Tesla has 3 dealerships in Austin, Texas. I am taking delivery on a 2023 Model Y on the 30th, from that direct Tesla dealership, after test driving a Tesla Model 3, also from that direct Tesla dealership. I'm not sure what "Total Direct Sales Ban" you are referring to in Texas. I count roughly 20 similar dealerships in the state. And at each one you can show up, see Tesla vehicles, test drive , purchase them and take delivery there. And afterwards bring them by for service. If that's a statewide ban, what more could be gained from lifting it??? I can even purchase Tesla insurance in Texas and Texas is going to be the first state (I think) to allow some sort of Tesla renting thing.

The dealers bother me the least. They are in business to make money, and enrich their investors. Period. In a proper economy, they would compete in such a way that their customer service would be almost directly tied to their financial performance. Which brings me to the groups I do have issues with. Elected politicians *should* operate apart from whatever bennies the dealers dole out. But since they see political office as a lifelong multi-generational dynastic endeavor, like the dealers, they see themselves in office to make money to get power. And keep it forever. Business do lot like leaving money on the table. Politicians don't like leaving power and control on the table. Which brings us to the press. The one group who can least defend allowing the most money to have the loudest voice. Print and broadcast media are the worst because they will actively conspire *with* certain businesses to coordinate an attack against a *wayward* politician. Awful. Unfortunately there is little that can be done about the messed up media. But if SC (and other) voters don't act to change their politicians and actively support them if they are doing the people's will but facing headwinds from dealers and the press then nothing's going to change. And their inaction will communicate to all involved that the voters are ok with that.

Austin is the best. Hands-down!

Well, most people don't realize how much energy it takes to build a Tesla, first of all because the government is pushing the public to buy that and actually forcing it's very expensive to build batteries and pollute even more than the oil does this world is upside down and most people don't realize where they are to get up in the morning to go to work and you come home and they don't know where they are and they don't know what's going on around them so they let him buy the Tesla and I'll find out

Wow, thanks for spreading this!

Not having researched the laws, you have to be wrong about Texas since there's a Tesla showroom not 15 minutes from my house.

Love your spunk! Always a good reminder of this ridiculousness.

If we simply enforce the constitution, then dealerships will go out of business.

anther patent scam

good job

Nice...

Land of the free eh?

great job Austin. illuminating as usual

As I understand it service is Tesla's weak spot so having 2 or 3 service centers that also serve as dealerships might be a good thing. And Musk can own all the dealerships.

None of them know they are in the prescence of a flight sim god. 🫡

Good breakdown. I've heard only positive things about the online buying experience for electric vehicles. I have no idea why anyone would cherish the opportunity to hang out at a dealership for hours while paperwork is filled out and upselling is pushed on you. Also, the only sales people I want to deal with are the ones that leave you alone. The Dealership model seems like the salespeople are fighting for their life. As soon as you drive-in, they're ready to pounce. How comfortable of a living is that? Makes me think it's great to own a dealership but not be the guy selling at one. I set up a demo drive on a Model Y (1.5 hours away because I live in a no-go state). It was super casual and no-pressure. You could tell the employees were happy in their environment and not worried about making a sale, the cars were selling themselves. It's got to be frustrating for the wealthy car dealership owners knowing their kids wanna drive Teslas, Rivians, etc. Post more stuff Austin!

Austin Meyer is my spirit animal

I am in agreement with you on this but want to ask, while i brought this video up. Now that you know all pro and con on yoiur plane Would you do it all over again and build/buy the Evolution. Or something else i.e. used pilatus . About 95% of my missions will not be over 900NM. Also where for insurance on said plane. TIA
