[@FLAIR.]

I’m seeing a lot of comments about other creators doing this. For the record (to my knowledge) no one has attempted to take the blades from a shop fan and attach them to an actual motor. Everyone plugs in the fan to a generator, which obviously won’t propel the boat…

[@dawson_5.0]

Flair is a just a grown ass kid. We need to be more like Flair

[@NC_Fisher_Guy]

I've seen flair make/use some sketchy things, but I think this takes the cake. I used to think I was bad at building things, but after seeing some of flairs builds without help from Papa beefcake, I'm feeling better about it.

Every step of the way I kept thinking, “oh man that doesn’t look like a good idea” lmao. Thanks for vids like these Flair, couldn’t stop laughing.

[@mattyjay8896]

This might be the sketchiest Flair build ever, and I freaking love it!😆👍

[@collynroegner3444]

Let’s just be honest while we all want to see this work I don’t think 30,000 for a used airboat would be the most ridiculous purchase this channel has seen… never the less love the content keep up the hard work!

[@WOLF-nn6zc]

Seeing flair build stuff makes me want to build something

[@stevenreep385]

You misspelled destroy

[@hassanmohammed2911]

Hey Flair. Maybe your carburetor got flooded with oil when the motor was tilted to the side in the bed of the truck. And another idea is installed the fan blade put a large enough washer behind it at the end of the shaft and drill a small hole and install a cotter pin. That will keep the blade from falling off.

[@justinscomp]

Flair, you need to go get one of the mini jet boat kits that Cleetus got and have beefcake weld it together. Good times will be had if it works.

[@Thtguy77]

Bruh.... Flair and Cleetus colab would be ridiculous, but I'd definitely watch it

[@bennieleip579]

@@Thtguy77 I don’t think flair could handle any off the higher hp things they got 🤣🤷🏼‍♂️ maybe he would be a good passenger 🤣🤣

[@tjlawrence2326]

Make sure you tilt the blades certain angles to make max air flow.

[@undercoverwhale6891]

Blade pitch

[@jessebraun908]

Nothing like a good daddy beefcake video on your 16 birthday 😀

[@Thtguy77]

Personally, I'd use a dirt bike or small motorcycle engine that has an automatic trans and then fit a straight shaft to the fan. You can then use metal mesh gears or a belt system and modify them for more power if needed

[@jameses797]

I think you might be in the right path with the larger fan. And shortening the shaft might help. IDK. But I would start with the engine first. Make sure it runs alone, before adding the fan. Then as a helicopter mechanic, you got to be careful about dinging up the blades, and bending them. At the speeds they turn the bends and dings will change the way they “fly” through the air. That will mess up the balance, and cause it to shake apart. But definitely make sure your engine is running good first.

[@problytrippin8153]

Okay flair, let’s sell something you don’t use and buy a real air boat like brad has! That’s one thing you can’t cheap out on bud lol the idea of it is cool but you don’t wanna cheap out haha. You’re definitely one of kind flair, can’t take that away from ya lol

[@pinhighdiscdyes]

I mean he could just buy an air boat with the money he makes off this one video alone. He’s swimming in cash.

[@problytrippin8153]

@@pinhighdiscdyes yeah but Adam he has sooooo much money put out there I don’t think he has as much in his personal account. Like yeah he’s obviously rich but I think he’s rich in materials. Houses, property, boats, tractors, side by sides. Gotta remember he owns multiple businesses. So I think he’s rich in that aspect! @FLAIR

You and Jake are so funny. Love watching y’all. Thank you both

[@jmassie]

The Beefcake crew never fails to impress me.

[@dalegereaux1863]

Did you pull the spark plug out and check to see if your cylinder got filled with oil when it was tipped over in the truck at the store ? That might be why it's not firing.

[@austinhughes1924]

I’m 24 years old.And I’ve been thinking about making my own airboat.Like this for a long time!

[@mattnowlin6626]

Damn I was so invested dude. Y'all almost had it started. Damnnnnn. Lol

[@jameses797]

Also, I’d start with checking the engine for spark first. Since you tried starting fluid and it didn’t really work, pull the spark plug, and clean it and all the connections to it.

[@brandonbrewer21]

Right... If it was the fans fault that it wasn't starting... Wouldn't it of started when the fan fell off? 🤷

[@brandonbrewer21]

I feel like he destroyed 2 fans without making sure the engine ran. Did you put more oil in it? Some engines have an oil sensor that won't let it run if it doesn't have enough oil.

[@brianwolf692009]

It's getting spark. That's why it popped and scared him.

[@gtpforever]

@@brianwolf692009 doesn't mean it's getting spark correctly 🤷‍♂️

Big Facts 🍻 but I still watch and love it 😅 like the cast net videos I cringe every time he throws the net 😖☠️

[@brianbucket7012]

Hello, Flair. To my untrained eyes, there isn't any difference in the quality of emergency preparedness offered by the doomsday shelter you built by your first backyard pond, and the nuclear missile bunker you toured. Still, if you buy the bunker, I hope there will be a catch, clean, and cook video where you use some of the supplies, such as the spaghetti sauce, that are stored in the bunker.

[@stanleyshelby7460]

You did it once again...kept me watching for 42' just to prove my thoughts were correct. Someone that also watched hopefully can assist on what to do.

Using a leaf blower to help spin the fan more while starting it could possibly help also whatever u can do to make the distance between the motor and the fan closer

You should build one of those for a kayak

Sheeew great job flair I’m excited for the hunting videos this fall!!

[@kaleyguillet9501]

Flair has a mind like no one else he thinks about a lot of crazy stuff but it ends up working

[@supercomp65]

Your best bet would be to use a motor and prop from a paramotor. People don't realize just how much power is required to generate useable thrust from airflow until they actually try to do it.

Have you considered getting an Airscrew? Like a 36x12 wooden pusher prop for model aircraft. It would be lighter, potentially, than the metal assembly and the is wood so you can bore it out to the appropriate diameter for your output shaft.

Every Flair/Beefcake Construction video should have a death pool pinned at the top. Whoever guesses closest to the correct time when a death or dismemberment takes place wins a prize.

[@brandonparker2964]

Thank god you are finally cutting on the right side of the wheel

[@poppinpinto]

Sometimes you must fail to reach the highest level of greatness!

[@revo7721]

Brother! Make sure the engine starts without anything attached. I don't think you are getting spark because you used starting aid and she didn't fire off. Best way to check for spark is to remove spark plug and set the threads of the plug on metal on the engine, crank over the engine to see if there is spark. If no spark change plug with a working one and try again. I hope this helps cause I wanna see an homemade air boat!

[@AB-xw6ql]

Just for the record idk if anyone suggested but you could have unbolted the blades and drilled out the rivets and swap blades instead of stripping the threads 😅 but keep plugging along flair!
