[@thedoeverything418]

[@ducjduck]

Dale Fry helicopter engine failure is also nob that bad

[@jambie]

Tucker actually said this in one of his videos once

[@adamr9215]

I would much rather lose an engine in an airplane. They have a better glide ratio and will make it a lot further. I’ve had a few over the years. Also, engine failure in a helicopter isn’t bad at all. Learn what autorotation is and why it’s a major part of helicopter flight training. PPC’s are the worst to lose an engine in. The glide ratio sucks, so you are stuck with finding a place to land that’s really close. I’ve flown a plane for 9 miles after the engine failed to get to an airport. Can’t do that with a chute.

[@JMMC1005]

@Zaphod Whiskers Except when they do! Some gliders have engines that fold out to self-launch, or to just sustain flight when the weather dies.

Always better than a parachute failure. Otherwise you’re falling at 120mph with a ceiling fan on your back.

Possibly ran low on Flux gas and the weld got porous. Its not uncommon for a crack to go through a weld but more often than not it will crack along side of the weld. At least thats ben my experience.

[@mgntstr]

no it wasn't damaged in shipping the welded parts have the thickest cross-section and can handle the most amount of stress. Unless the materials where not properly melded then it becomes what tucker received. Instead of glue they gave him chap-stick.

Root causes can be also excess of vibrations because of pressure pulsations or temperature difference possibly due to altitude / weather

After trying many different brands and blowing up more engines, I found Amsoil and was so impressed with their 20:1 oil that i started stretching it out 30:1, 50:1, 75:1, at that point my sponsors (Motorcycle franchise)&(Mechanics) rang Amsoil to come see and we started using it at 100 to 1 and could not blow the engine. They ended up sponsoring me and created the 100:1 2 stroke engine oil they now sell.

[@sharedknowledge6640]

Like Italian cars and motorcycles, Italian paramotor engines are mostly trouble prone, fussy, and high maintenance. The Italians don’t seem to understand how to design for reliability. It’s too bad Honda doesn’t make paramotor engines. They would be ten times more reliable, make more power, be quieter, require much less maintenance, and parts wouldn’t fall off as has happened with your Italian motor.

What is it with paramotor and engine failures? I had a 250 cc two stroke motorcycle for five years and i used it every other day. Sun, rain, ice, snow, storm or calm. I ran it in the forest and on long stretches of asphalt and the ONLY time it stopped was when i forgot to refuel it that one time when i was almost home from a long long trip. And that time freaked me out because it was one of my first long trips so i had been running it at the same revs for the last couple of miles and it had suddenly revved up a few miles prior giving a considerable boost in power. In hindsight that was just the air changing as i went from a foggy area into a clear and sunny area on the other side of a mountain. But the engine went out with a bang in the exhaust and i thought something had blown up. But everything seemed fine so i checked the three major things. Fuel, air, spark. Well, i got to fuel and realized the tank was bone dry. Luckily for me i was on a slope and there was a gas station at the bottom of said slope so i rolled over the median and down that slope to the gas station and the bike ran like a clock ever since. Seriously, what kind of Chinesium are these paramotor engines made of?

This is pretty much the worst of the worst over 7 years. So the odds are pretty good. 😀

[@nocare]

im sure it would be less common if the engines used more modern tech but remember these are all still carbureted and lightly engineered engines. It keeps the cost down but as a result engine reliability is less guaranteed. Even then engine failures will still happen without excessive maintenance and cost just at a reduced rate.

[@highkicker11]

@@nocare the newer engines are just as unreliable as the old engines the only thing new engines have going for them is early warning thanks to delicate electronics. But thats just another failure mode waiting to happen. Plain old carb engines are really reliable if build right and maintained correctly.

[@nocare]

@@highkicker11 A newer engine can be as unreliable as an older engine. I am not talking about the spectrum of engines but the practical limitations of engines. On principle of the nature of the design an efi engine will be more reliable than a carb engine. A turbine engine will be more reliable than a piston engine. Its not possible for the best carb engine humanity can build to equal the reliability of the best efi humanity can build. The efi engine will just cost 2-4 times as much and for what a 20-30% greater reliability. If reliability is the only factor in choosing an engine a newer more advanced design will always have the higher ceiling. The thing is its not the only consideration. EFI engines are expensive and often unwarranted in such applications.

[@SandiNPaul]

I've a number of them. 2nd flight, went to idle, it died, wouldn't start. 2 of them, ran out of fuel. My last 3, I had installed EFI on my motor. EFI requires power.. well, the rectifier wasn't working and the battery died... as did the engine. Finally fixed that. Now I didn't know it at the time, but the CHT sensor wasn't made right and came loose from the connector. Now there's air blowing over the sensor which gave a false reading to the module. "Ah, nice and cool! We can lean it out!"... Blew a hole in my piston. Landed in the Atlanta Motor Speedway parking lot, dodging light poles and wires! 😒 Rebuilt it, installed a secondary CHT so I could monitor it. Burned it in. Flew for 15 minutes, CHT jumped to 427 and before I could shut it off, blew another piston. So much fun.

[@jaybirds759]

If you are indeed worried about that (as I would be) I'd recommend looking at how many flights he's done. He also tests a lot of aftermarket or custom things, and several of these were due to failures of those OR testing of smoking, which is not necessary. I say this as someone who has no idea of how much he flies but I think those two aspects are worth considering. These clips were of more than him, and mostly through customization or gas failures. Just my two cents.

i was wondering the same thing

[@nathangilbert6851]

Its more dependent on the size of the wing a larger wing will support more weight where with the motor you can get off the ground with a samm atom 80 but you will have to run much longer than if you have a large motor the the master 185 on the scout

Always interesting video.

[@IN281VE]

Your vids are awesome!

[@joshperryppg]

Tucker, need you to settle a score. When referring to the motor/engine on your paramotor, do you call it by the chassis name? Or do you call it the engine name? Would you say your exhaust cracked on the Scout, or would you say your exhaust cracked on the Moster 185?

[@TuckerGott]

I would call it by the engine name.

[@jacksfishingjig4563]

OMG I LIVE IN JERSEY TOOOOOOO I REALLY WANT A PARAMOTOR!!!!!How old do you have to be to fly one?

[@odra873]

If you are not old enough to Google that yourself maybe you should wait

[@jacksfishingjig4563]

@@odra873 dude I'm literally retarded I thought of that the second I commented that

[@g.choppa4448]

Engine failure inevitable. Yep, thats all I needed to hear. I keep playing golf watching you guys fly over golf course 😁

The biggest difference between These guys and Planes oh my engine went out well now I just parachute down or Oh my engine went out mayday mayday I will try and glide it down but no promises.

[@hobogrifter]

Nope, same with planes. You try and glide the plane too

[@phillhuddleston9445]

@@hobogrifter But with a plane you need a runway or a road that doesn't have vehicles on it for a good distance. With this a small open field or even a parking lot will do.
