[@prop352]

Excellent video!

[@TheEaglesNest15]

Thank you!

[@tobymack2783]

Great video with great sound. Briefly tell us why Buckeye over Six Chuter and others? What is taking video of you? Oh, yeah.........one june bug in the eye will remind you of eye protection. Ha.

[@mountainvalleyorganic1608]

The reason for buckete is that it was for sale when I was looking for one. I like to fly different ones . A friend of mine wanted to chase the ppc with his drone and did a great job on this video. Yes we were in contact on the radio the whole time . I had sunglasses on but the sun was going down and the panel is hard to see with shades on. Glad you enjoyed the video.

Loved the video. I have a Buckeye Dragonfly that appears to use the same tubing hardware parts as yours. Do you have any ideas of where to get replacement parts?

[@mountainvalleyorganic1608]

Sorry I don't

[@Just_ride_it]

nice content. what type of trike is that? Pegasus? because of weight one will need a sports pilot license at minimum? i am just getting into it.

[@mountainvalleyorganic1608]

It is a buckeye. I do hold a valid PPL and medical from the faa. Yes you are correct, this 2 seat over 254 lbs will require at least a sport pilot cert with out a medical.

[@archiesmith228]

Great video….I want to fly my ppc over there after watching. Where exactly is that where your flying?

[@TheEaglesNest15]

Thank you, we are in central VA. about 20 minutes north of the border.

[@Itsgarc]

Nice video!

[@TheEaglesNest15]

Thanks!

[@CFI_Muncie]

Awesome video!

[@Treasuremonk]

How’d you get all that video flying? A drone? And what state are you in? Looks like NC!

[@TheEaglesNest15]

I used a drone to get the footage. You are very close, we are central VA. about 20min north of the border.

What are the controls of the wing?

[@mountainvalleyorganic1608]

The bars that your feet rest on are the controls. If you want to fly left you press the left bar. The farther you press it the faster the rate or turn becomes. It adds drag to that side and let's the opposite side speed up. When landing you press both to create the flare to stop the wnig from flying and lay down. Great question.

[@boostedbadboyzx12r31]

How do you flair the wing with foot controls?

[@TheEaglesNest15]

Push both in at the same time. The more you push the more it stalls the wing.

[@patjohn775]

What’s the range?

[@mountainvalleyorganic1608]

5 gals an hour most days and 12 gals on board.

[@mountainvalleyorganic1608]

5 gals an hour with 10 capacity.

[@wait4dl]

why no brain bucket?

[@mountainvalleyorganic1608]

The simple answer is that at that time I did not have one to wear. I would love to have a lift helmet but dang 2500 bucks. Still may get one.
