Manila Folder 777 - Main Landing Gear - ULTIMATE Load Test!

[@F-Man]

This says amazing things for your craftsmanship, and amazing things for the engineers who designed the real-world counterpart! You've been precise enough in your work that you've been able to make a paper model withstand the same stresses, to scale, as the real goddamned airliner. Fantastic!

[@xxchilly_coyotexx6717]

Ferrariman601 i don't think that's paper

[@riot2136]

lotus leaf gaming it’s Manila paper.

[@SarcasticMarauder]

My god! Its nice to see the weight bearing properties of the real thing translates to model scale Great work

[@lucaiaconistewart]

***** I was surprised that it actually worked out so well!

[@kenupcmac]

***** it a hard work... so dont take the risk... it just paper after all... if the weight crush it...you have to remake the whole thing again i can tell it many many hour of hard work.... it make me feel sad if it got damage REMEMBER it paper u using

[@lucaiaconistewart]

kenupcmac I won't be testing it again like this. It'll just be supporting the plane itself (obviously) which is quite light. But I wanted to push the envelope ;)

[@kenupcmac]

***** what did u do to protect the paper from time it will become weak after many years

[@Chrisx132]

bump. how do you protect the moving parts? if at all

[@grantjones2863]

I'd be scared to test it. Nice job.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Grant Jones Thanks!

[@shelleynobleart]

Absolutely extraordinary work, Luca. Finest engineering imaginable. Unimaginable, actually. You changed the way I felt about airliners with the whole project.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

+NobleDesignMedia Thank you!

[@mirrorsedging]

Changed the way I think about folders...

[@skymutt964]

Dude, as an aviation nerd, I totally orgasmed at this! Cant wait to see the final product. Subbed!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Skybluex Thanks! I can't wait to have it done!

[@YourLocalLeadBassist]

Luca Iaconi-Stewart is it done?

[@Your_Local_Nerd]

same

[@sergiomendez9231]

I can tell you take the time to read the comments by the amount of responses you post and I love your responses. No trolling, down-talking, insulting negativity here. You seem like a genuine person with a genuine passion for this and I truly appreciate you sharing this with us.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Sergio Mendez I guess I've been pretty lucky to generally receive very positive and constructive comments. And yea, I do try to get back to everyone when possible because I appreciate the feedback and want to answer questions. Thank you for your comment, by the way! It means a lot.

[@allor122]

It's amazing that you've kept every detail true to scale, from the actual mechanism and parts, all the way to this amount of functionality. I will continue to follow your progress!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

allor122 Thank you!

[@breadbot999]

Wow, I'm super impressed... Made of paper but extremely study... Good job, Luca Iaconi-Stewart... Can't wait to see the finished plane

[@bummers]

You sir is Master craftsman in my world. You've done what I tried and failed when I was in primary school, some 30 over years ago. Hats off to you!!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

bummers Thank you so much! You should give it a shot again!

[@amitsiewnarine]

This is one of the most impressive things I've seen in my entire life. You are a truly talented artist. A rare genius! Keep it up!!

[@j16out]

This is incredible, I would hope this ends up in a museum, just remarkable. The world needs to see this

[@psaini27]

I'm amazed every time I watch one of your updates on this project.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Parminder Saini :)

[@DevKadam.]

The fact that he created this hour of paper and it supports 2 books blows my mind. Great job buddy.

[@jbvap]

You are ridiculous dude. I build scale models but I don't scratch build like you. That involves creativity that I do not have, apparently you do. Bravo sir!

[@superbadmofo1]

Dude thanks alot...your work is frekin amazing. The level of detail is incredible.

[@JaciMorais]

well, i almost had a heart attack in the end. Great job. This is the most amazing thing i ever seen in my life. Amazing work.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

***** ;) Thanks so much!

[@ferrallezz5246]

Same.

[@ferrallezz5246]

Luca Iaconi-Stewart You still post please?

[@emilywinslett8284]

I work for one of the companies that provides the parts to Boeing and I have to say, this is amazing to see! I'm definitely gonna pass your videos on to my Boeing coworkers

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Thank you! Happy to hear that!

[@BalconyTV]

amazing work

[@lucaiaconistewart]

BalconyTV Thank you!

[@HalfGroceryCom]

Luca Iaconi-Stewart j

[@ksinouye]

Just found your channel. I'm blown away, awesome work! You got that 773ER semi-levered gear down solid.

[@NeonsStyleHD]

It's one thing to build a scale model out of paper; it's quite another to then put it under a scale load and have it stand up to it. Very well done.

[@bumbledouche3323]

Watching the books was scary enough, the jump at the end was plain nerve wracking! If I'd spent, what I think is fair to assume was *bloody* *ages* building something like that, I'd be too terrified to even breathe on it, never mind pile some books on it!

[@sebastianangarita3903]

Wow man, your work is amazing!!!! I'v never seen this class of models and i hope that you continue doing more videos, i like so much the aviation :)

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Sebastian Angarita Thanks! I intend to! Working on the wings now.

[@flyingflx]

The final, ultimate load test? Awesome. :D You've made amazing progress and work. I'm really looking forward to what it looks like in final. Come out to Mojave when you do! ;D

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Ethan Chew Hopefully I'll be able to do that soon! And I can't wait to have it done either. It's gonna be such a relief/so exciting.

[@flyingflx]

+Luca Iaconi-Stewart, true that. ^5!

[@PebelWasTaken]

dude. this project is mental.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

cubesinanutshell I'd have to agree ;)

[@spectrumboy6103]

how can people dislike this mans beautiful creativity!?!?! shame on those who dislike! edit: damn its strong!!

[@asmaaelgaafary2537]

Michael Gentile ةوممممن

[@thatoneguy8081]

I think I can imagine the your model finished already. :') So beautiful

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Wan Muhd Haidar Can't wait for the day that happens

[@klaudiagrabowiecka9126]

wi belive and cant believe you made this this is just CRAZY!!!!!!!!!! just W.O.W.

[@UKscalemodeller]

Your skills continue to amaze me.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

UKscalemodeller Glad to hear! :)

[@scrach]

That, had to be nerve wracking!!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Chris Corse The first time was more nerve-wracking hah. But even still! Not gonna be testing it anymore though cause i do think it would eventually wear it down.

[@curtisgibbs107]

VERY IMPRESSIVE!!! I wished I had a 1/10th of your gift/abilities, and then, could probably draw a straight line.....LOL!

[@johnacsyen]

wow. made entirely out of manila folder. have you got any sponsorship from a stationery store or airline or Boeing!!! Subscribed

[@alexanderlam8121]

Dear Mr. Stewart, I am Alexander. Even though I'm just 10 years old, I am just like you a crazy Aviation Lover. Instead of making a Boeing 777-300ER, I took Inspiration from you and started Making the Younger Brother of the Boeing 777-300ER, the Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner From Singapore Airlines. I was shocked and the same time excited that this Beauty, the Dreamliner, Finally entered Commercial Service with Singapore Airlines. I am using the 1:50 scale instead of the 1:60 scale. I think the most difficult part will be the wing. Cya soon, You Alexander P.S. Please Answer this Comment! And I hope you will upload new videos!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

That's awesome! Hope it's going well.

[@chubmcy17]

dang it took 80 hours if i recall for just the landing gear. You have a rediculous amount of patience

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Jonathan Lowe Thanks! And yea, I guess I do. Something must be broken up there lol.

[@missjt88]

That thing is bad ass!! I peed a little when I saw you getting ready to jump.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

missjt88 ;) thank youuu!

[@stuff2review]

Wow! seriously awesome job! Wasn't there a video of you building the landing gear? Did you take it down?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

No, it's still there. Model 777 Main Landing Gear - Design+Build Process - Time-lapse with Info!

[@MrMAIRUS]

Amazing work!

[@MrChrisKnowlton]

Excellent work

[@StSeya42069]

a work of art

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Alonso V Thanks so much!

[@byrondot]

Impressive work, are you thinking on your next challenge? It will be another airplane?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Byron Still have plenty to do on this model, and I'm probably gonna be sick of it by the time I finish! So who knows... maybe way down the road.

[@kuldeepsankpal6443]

1:27 scary moment 🥶😬😬

[@kuldeepsankpal6443]

I was like Noooooooooo! Please don't do that

[@aidenstephan9571]

Have you made any other models?? If so, do you have pictures??

[@TeemarkConvair]

i sure hope SOMEBODY at Boeing has seen your work

[@lucaiaconistewart]

***** Indeed! www.boeingblogs.com/randy/archives/2014/01/model_masterpiece.html

[@DJ-jq8if]

This is so cool!

[@sampreethuller8511]

obsession at its best

[@timothymanning5756]

Wow. All I can say is WOW!

[@lucaiaconistewart]

***** :)

[@JLseaDaBreeze]

I am amazed 🤯

[@lucienpapercraft5171]

My god you really making me ded laughing at the end Btw Amazing good job exellent brilliant super Model Edit: again you are super talented!

[@PCcardboard1354]

The end nearly gave me a heart stop.

[@mattpenguin3030]

Would the tape dispenser affect the amount of load on the landing gear?

[@bobacks]

Woooaaahh!! That's insane. And it's only paper(ish).

[@lucaiaconistewart]

mentalhangover No ish about it! ;)

[@PerfectlyFunctioningAI]

wow that thing has so much detail, 3d printed?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

MrDisgruntledGamer1 yes, me being the 3D printer.

[@PerfectlyFunctioningAI]

***** im still in disbelief, so many question like how do all the individual parts not wear each other out? Paper isnt exactly a smooth surface and id imagine when individual parts pivot and rotate around each other its not a smooth transition. How can paper even become so strong too? How did you get a complete blue print of a commercial plane? How solid is the whole thing is it susceptible to creasing/bending? Is this real life???

[@lucaiaconistewart]

MrDisgruntledGamer1 I'm sure over time, with repeated use, the parts would wear out. It's not metal. But you might be surprised how strong it is. Glue can be used to harden the surface of parts, which really helps. And the struts are solid inside, so they support a lot of weight. As for the blueprints, I don't really have any. I've had to design everything myself, which is why this project is taking for f*ckin ever. Check this video out (even if you just skip through it and don't watch the whole thing), as it shows the entire process behind the creation of the main gear: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWjSg4Z5raygj6M

[@krisnadiimam4556]

+Luca Iaconi-Stewart : the support structure and the interlocking parts are really tiny, its pretty surprising it can held up to such load. you sure are confident loading them, arent you afraid that some of the parts buckled and you have to start all over again?

[@javikonstz]

WOOOOOOOOOW

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Unfortunately I don't have any available to share at the moment

[@javikonstz]

[e-mail] ...that's my mail, please my friend, I'm just a dreamer that dreams to build something like yours, please my friend ...

[@florky_01]

do a landing when you finish the whole thing... i wanna see those beautiful tilted landing gears

[@fullmodels9194]

What was that at the end? Did you break it?

[@나야-w6i]

덕중에 덕은 양덕이라더니 정말 대단해요.

[@zero00tolerance]

Hi where do you find the blueprints ? very nice work

[@lucaiaconistewart]

zero00tolerance Mainly look at pictures but I do have the training manual and the exterior dimensions (plus the seatmap).

[@AizenSousuke92]

+Luca Iaconi-Stewart where'd you get those stuffs?

[@Farbirge]

Outstanding! Does anybody know what kind of paper is he using? Or maybe there are some tutorials on such things (improving the paper strength)? If someone knows, please share links, THANKS.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Farbirge Check out my other videos, I have a few making-ofs that might answer some of your questions.

[@snowgolem6099]

The only thing that I dont like about the landing gear is that there is no gear tilt. Could you incorporate it by maybe making a paper pivot of some kind and letting the gear free float on it?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

It actually does tilt... check this video (toward the end): kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2WnYZKop5Jqes0

[@ERDIBI]

Wow!! Likes the ending lol

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Indra Djaya Putra Hah, glad you did!

[@martonify]

Thats amaizing is it really all paper?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Yep!

[@certidz1579]

What material is being used?

[@Gogofam123]

DAVINCHI ITS YOU ,CANT FOOL ME))) STOP PRETENDING AS A RANDOM KZbinR )))

[@javiermuniz9016]

Can you givethe link where you found the plans? thanks

Incredible...

[@JBL-ud4yp]

What was the reason I thought about making such amazing things on paper?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

I enjoy the process :)

[@dannypock2948]

If only I we're that talented

[@superbadmofo1]

Lucas where did you find the plans.....I'm trying to build a CAD model but I'm not able to find nothin online. Can you please direct me and point me in the right direction.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

[@gordonramsay1921]

do you sell the template and very nice gears

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Unfortunately I don't!

[@kylebreedlove1360]

this is so cool

[@Stevenuniverse-ih5lh]

GIVE THIS MAN A NOBLE PRIZE

[@Ai-Galaxy-GS]

What's the weight on the landing gear system itself?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

aigalaxy About 40 grams, including the nose gear (but not including the test rig).

[@flightcruiser1]

are the tires manila file as well????

[@lucaiaconistewart]

+matthew turnquest Everything is. 100%.

[@Ai-Galaxy-GS]

Also, wouldn't it be nicer if the suspensions actually have springs in it? I know it's hard, just a thought.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

aigalaxy It would indeed, but of course, there are limitations inherent to the medium.

[@Ai-Galaxy-GS]

I was thinking of some tiny springs from ebay or something lol.

[@lucaiaconistewart]

aigalaxy ah, but then I'd be cheating!

[@jupiter-qu3zl]

HOLY MOLY

[@sparrowthenerd]

You weren’t worried at all?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

I was, yes... but I couldn't help trying :)

[@g0bri7]

Impressive

[@737Garrus]

When the 777 is completed make a 737-400, my fav jet of all time! +rep

[@Anthony-td6mn]

I like the Boeing-747

[@HobbyLifeSMF]

great.

[@evoteching]

What material is this?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

emanuel silva Check the title ;)

[@RAK21]

lmao at the end xD

[@alvinactivities9655]

What thats made of? Wood or cardboard?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

paper (manila folders)

[@paperartinmotion1581]

is there any way to make money from this art form?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

not easy

[@mmnissanzroadster9]

He could sell the files as CAD drawings and then people could 3D print them (would probably be EVEN stronger than paper... especially in ABS plastic. I would pay money for the plans to print them lol. Hell, I'd pay money just to have plans so I can cut them out and assemble just the same! I totally think the 3D printing capability of this project is profitable.

[@marchung1237]

how was that possible...

[@robertfpv7733]

Hard to watch after watching the build video nice job

[@aircrafttoocubed9745]

is that all paper?

[@lucaiaconistewart]

+Satisfying Spagetti yep!

[@datsunrotten9477]

How much would you sell for....

[@mtnmanchad]

WOW!

[@LupitaSanchez-lh6og]

Kn.

[@dylangeswindt-dc9nr]

Can this guy please make a tutorial of this

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Not a tutorial, but this does show how I designed and built it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWjSg4Z5raygj6M

[@frosa33]

SIMPLY PUT: F**** AWESOME

[@lucaiaconistewart]

Felipe Rosa Thank you!

[@Advection357]

lol @ the last part

[@kenupcmac]

at least the join on the wing and landing gear need to reinforce by some plastic or metal... paper dont last long...

[@lucaiaconistewart]

kenupcmac You'd be surprised, it's actually surprisingly durable. It hardens significantly when coated with glue. Plus, I'm not gonna be messing around with many of the parts once it's done. It will basically just be on display.

[@kenupcmac]

***** time , liquid and humidity is paper biggest enemy bug also

[@lucaiaconistewart]

kenupcmac Well, the fuselage is over 6 years old and still going strong. But it is what it is... I'm gonna finish it in manila, and beyond that, it's really out of my control so there's no use worrying much.

[@MarcinAdamR]

wow

[@lucaiaconistewart]

***** :P

[@sirjamesfancy]

Nice ending, lol

[@aquarius8676]

is this paper..? i cant believe it;;;;;

[@diegoalvarez7005]

Manila Folders

[@WishingChainPlays]

I can make that, just need some Skill, Time, Manilla Folders and even more skill. But Seriously good work

[@Airguardian]

omg
