Thx for this!

Not much information circulating on 7mm Sherman Short mag at the moment..looks compelling and great garvest by the way!

Did you replace your bolt carrier and recoil spring ?

I cannot get this to work. Was there an update where you need to name it something different?

Two things I realized. I called the pound symbol a hashtag 🤦‍♂️. Also, when selecting “use” from CAS page and entering target numbers on UFC it would group them and say T12, T23, T34…..as in 1,2,3,4,5. Derrr 😂 Also, sorry for all the lip smacking mouth sounds. I’m new to recording voice

I bought the WBP Polish 1960 carrier and bolt, it was a drop in. However, both the Century and my Sam7 recoil springs would cause the BCG to get hung up. I took a chance and ordered Part AK-339 "Telescoping Type Recoil Spring Assembly for 7.62x39mm 556x45mm Milled Receivers" from Arsenal. Was $39.99 plus S&H. No more hang-ups! SAAMI no-go gauge would not close, so headspacing is good to go.

Now just waiting for SAAMI go gauge to check the headspacing, before testing at range...

Has your polish bolt torn up your trunnion? That’s one thing I’m concerned about. I just got this for mine. It’s cast metal.

Nice shots

My polish bolt from apex also headspaced perfectly also. How many rounds do you have now?

Don’t run the old bolt it’s outta spec with the receiver it’ll chew up your locking lug which is the rail to the right of your chamber you can already see it’s started to polish

Did it drop in with out problems?

What helicopter is that

Made an update for you guys. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpi8dX9setGip6c

Please give a update on what the polish bolt looks like after a few hundred rounds. Great video

Hold the bolts still please.

Did you have to modify the Polish bolt to make it fit?

Very cool.

Where did you get your Go and No go gauges from ?? Thanks

Nothing wrong with the century bolt. Looks like typical wear to me.

Where did you buy your Polish Bolt?

How does it run with that bolt when you shot it?

so my polish bolt won't twist in all the way when i close the carrier, so i can't close the carrier in all the way while the polish bolt is in. I figure the bolt is to big for my receiver O.o

You are a stupid

I assume this is the headmount. Was it 1080 wide setting? Wondering how much view it will have in a R22.

Is that console an option?

Nice video and nice flying. Maybe its somewhere here, but what chopper is it? Thank You.

Love the d-mans "fuck" at 2:28

Thats an awesome view and a great video. Nice Job. Im currently at 32 hrs going for my Private License. My Dad has arranged for me to fly the Jet Ranger once I get my PPL. I can't wait. Great job .

So if you'll notice towards the top of this "vertical take off" I'm pulling about 23.5" almost 24" MP which, depending on atmospheric conditions, at 5,016' MSL is about all we can pull. So yes, that was a max performance take off. We hit throttle stop a lot up here.

I believe what MrStockto was getting at was, with what we can see with the instruments and outside reference, the maneuver looked more like a vertical takeoff rather than a max performance takeoff

Let me know what kind of music you guys want. All of the music on youtube is terrible!

Love it!

Please, do tell

how did you pay for your private? i'm currently paying out of pocket until the VA picks up for instrument. oohrah

Heck yeah!

Let me know if you have any other questions. I'd be happy to help you out. The VA process is terrible and you will soon find out that you know more about the program than the school counselors do. You'll probably spend some time on hold with the VA looking for funding, or housing allowance or something that has gone wrong. But in the end, they will end up paying a lot of money for you to learn to fly helicopters, which is amazing no matter how you cut it!

Yes! You'll have to go through an accredited college program. Take your time with it. Don't over load yourself with credits because if you finish all of your aviation classes too early then you won't be able to take enough credits to be considered full time for the VA and you won't be eligible for your housing allowance. Also, it usually takes the VA about 2 months to process flying money so do it as soon as possible, that way your flying funds will be available quickly.

Hows that work out? I just decided I should be flying heli's and I have GI-bill benefits... do you have any suggestions that may save me alot of undue hastle? I'd really appreciate any direction you could give. That said, I eagerly look forward to having an instructor pull surprises for me to deal with... Thanks for the upload!

There are tons of grants, the question is trying to get them just like any other grant there is fierce competition. Just have to start looking. Most grants and scholarships I found were tied into an accredited college degree program though. So you'd have to get an associates or masters in an aviation related field to make it work.

@dustinhinton. My training has cost about $150K so far but I am on the Post 911 GI Bill. If I wasn't I would be flying airplanes and not helicopters. The loans just aren't worth it to me. But if you're prepared to pay back those loans then go for it.

So is this is military training or civilian?

Yes

You going with the GI Bill for training?

jjsemperfi, I almost got stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado. I had seen a helicopter school advertised up around Denver that flew Schweizers and Enstrom F-28's. So, I think you may be flying at the very school I would have gone to. I tried finding a way to e-mail you on here, but couldn't find one. Keep up the good work and be safe. Stay in touch. SGT V

Honestly, we don't know 100% for sure. It was an extremely windy night, but wind died down to 11 knots almost straight down the runway. But shifted to a left quartering headwind. So, we suspect wake (vortices) from the main rotor were blown into the tail rotor. It started slow, then my headsets shot off my head it was spinning so fast. It was very violent and terrifying. I honestly thought I was going to die. Somehow I managed to keep it from flipping over with the cyclic, but landed hard.

That's a good instructor. Stuff like this saves pilots later.

Is that 9AR

True, That's why I make nice slow pedal turns. That day the wind was calm so I wasn't too concerned with LTE, but usually I make pedal turns to the left. Glad you walked away. What kind of LTE did you get into?

Nope, 300C
