Well done video. For the life of me I can’t figure out why the chart shows 898’ for your airport, but you clearly are at 1100’. Maybe didn’t adjust altimeter for local pressure…it would have to be off by 2.00”?

Great catch, I just reviewed the video and you are 100% right - field elevation is 898' and I set my altimeter to 1100'... however I cannot see what pressure is set to, and I don't have the audio file anymore of myself reading off the pressure when listening to ATIS, so my best guess is that I set it incorrectly. I appreciate the feedback, that is certainly something I will keep in mind when flying in the future.

I’m a student pilot and this video is reassuring of my PPL training. It’s so funny because I talk to myself as well because I find it helpful to maintain procedures. I’m encouraged by this video. Fly on

Wow! That Archer looks a lot like mine! I have a 79 Archer II with just over 1500 hrs TT. My panel doesn't look as nice as yours...

Excellent and very useful.. how did you record the audio ?

@dkratzman 5 ай бұрын

Thank you! I used a Zoom audio recorder and plugged it into the intercom to record the audio!

Fantastic video. Quick note coming from an avionics technician, I noticed that your control column for your yolk has grease on it, and while in theory that helps with friction and keeping control movements loose, over time it collects dirt and debris and will actually start jamming your control column, making movements more and more difficult and stiff. For safety and just ease of flying you should clean your yolk column thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol and a rag, and then just wipe up the iso residue after. You'll have to do it a little more regularly but it's much safer and is recommended by piper. Great video though!

Bro great job with this video man. I was locked in for the whole thing. I'm learning on a Piper archer as well and to see you run the procedures in it helped me a lot! Keep going my guy! Subscribing for sure!!

reli good flying! may i ask if you hv any tips on landing? (e.g. timing or reference to round out/ flare) Cheers!

@dkratzman 6 ай бұрын

Once I've made the runway, I do my best to transition my eyes forward down the runway towards the horizon to get a good reference of how high I am above the ground. As I get close, smoothly roll into my flare and let the plane come down. Personally I avoid timing anything, with changing winds, flying different planes, etc., each landing will be a little different. Best tip for me - just practice. Get up with an instructor and spend an hour in the pattern, it helps to get real time feedback from someone with another perspective!

Hey great video! I have the same GoPro set up and was curious about your process if you don’t mind! Are you recording audio into one of the cameras or a separate audio recorder? How are you syncing up the cameras? Annnnnddd are you multi cam editing on premiere or using something else? Trying to figure out what process is most efficient. Thanks

@dkratzman 10 ай бұрын

Thank you! I had a lot of the exact same questions and still don't have it all figured out. Audio: I am recording on a separate audio recorder, I used a Zoom H4N only because it's all I have, there's probably easier products out there that will get the job done. I use a Y-splitter cable and plug it directly into a headset jack in the plane. Camera Sync: A lot of trial and error and just going frame by frame in Premiere until all of the videos line up. I stacked each different angle on each other in my Premiere timeline until all the audios matched, and then cut and clipped the shots from there. I found this to make the most sense to me, however there's probably a faster way of doing it. As for editing the GoPro 360 clips, I took the time to frame the same recording into 4 shots: forward facing, wing facing, cockpit facing, and "object of interest" facing. I framed each in GoPro's free desktop app (GoPro Player?). Once I had 4 separate entire length videos from the single 360 recording, I used those in Premiere and clipped them there as needed. Again, there is a way to do it all in Premiere, but this way made the most sense to me, however probably not the most efficient way. I hope to make some more videos in the upcoming year and continue to improve the editing process as it was very time consuming. I found that just giving it a try and figuring it out as I went was the best way for me to understand how to shoot the video, so don't be afraid to give it a go even if you don't have a perfect plan or know exactly how it'll come together. Hope this helps!

Great video...thanks. May I ask why you are using carb heat? POH says not to unless suspected carb icing.

@dkratzman 10 ай бұрын

I appreciate it! Great question, I was always taught to get in the habit of using it out of precaution. It also brings the engine RPM down lower when I transition the throttle to idle as I flare, however not the primary reason for using carb heat. That’s a great question to discuss with your instructor and I’m going to look into it. Thanks!

@dkratzman I also do in the Cessnas but not the Archer. Something to do with the carburetor mounted to the oil sump, so better heat transfer. Be safe and again great pattern flying.
