You know, for as large as that plane was, it crashed with dignity.

[@jaredf6205]

It was definitely a success for the situation.

That dignity ended around 16:31 though 😁

[@WingofTech]

To be honest, if the tail held a bit more firm (and had a little less nose weight) it might have gone across the field. :] Edit: this was before I saw the second takeoff lol

[@valy7039]

I just loved the little tiny parachute you mounted just in case. as if a parachute like that would slow the plane in any shape or form :)))

[@Drizzle-ld2vl]

U should make a plane that flaps like a bird

[@BoredAmerican]

That would be so extremely difficult

[@EvanMoon]

My mom bought me a toy bird that it would flap his wings. This is at least 15 years ago but I’m trying to remember if it actually would lift off or not

[@BoredAmerican]

@Richard Pena Mendoza I don’t think it would even be possible

[@Warbird-Aviation]

thank you for this video. Im always amazed that if the size of rc model become larger than 4-5 meters its very difficult to bring them into the air. The structure has to be very strong, much stronger than with small size planes

[@DAVIDGREGORYKERR]

You should fiberglassed the wings to totally waterproof the wings.

[@cablecar3683]

It's amazing it was even able to fly and stay up in the air for a bit.

[@qigong1001]

Do 100 digits, BUT as a bi-Wing. Wires and lightweight struts… more stable.

[@ohno8589]

Mmmm biplane 😋

[@texas66]

Yes, it has to be a 100 motor biplane!!! Something that would defeat the dreaded Red Baron! Like Snoopy, your dog could fly it! Okay, too dangerous, I would never want to see your puppy get hurt but you could put a weighted analogue stuffed toy in it! Aerobatics would be required so differential thrust might help.

[@huseyinuguralacatli5064]

@@texas66 red baron's was triplane

[@texas66]

@@huseyinuguralacatli5064 Yes it was, but from the Peanuts comic strip Snoopy flew the Sopwith Camel. So if Snoopy had a Camel biplane with 100 motors, surely he could defeat the Red Baron. The idea of a 100 motor RC aeroplane seems comical to me (but it would be fun to see someone build and fly) and since Peter has a dog that is a wing walker why not make his dog the pilot? Since you mentioned it, a 100 motor triplane would be fun too!

[@SoulThunder]

Hey elons son I know you are the real one🦾

[@loopymind]

the RC community seems like a nice lot of people

[@guykendal2902]

Aluminium rail in the fuselage with the batteries on a servo controlled train to balance nose mid flight. You are building it to fly, not carry water bottles. I loved the tail but a stronger build that attaches as a module to the fuselage rail with a balsa stress breaking mechanism would allow you fast replacement of the plugs. Modular wing design would allow you to store/transport out of the elements.

[@Crackracket]

I like how during the Huel Ad he was pouring it into his mouth but the bottle was clearly empty

[@michaelangiolo9370]

Thanks Peter for the awesome opportunity to work on this stupid but fun project and also thanks for those motors that you thought were burnt up even though they weren't 🌝

[@rcbinchicken]

Loved the video, but this comment made my day. Recycling for the win :D

[@simonwatson5299]

you need to make a giant delta wing. Like a Vulcan Bomber. The wings would stay more rigid.

[@georgekurgansky5986]

That's the most gangster thing on youtube, that was so fun to watch! Why not flex the wing instead of using aelerons? Cables and pulleys.

[@leoma9955]

[@BizVlogs]

14:50 It’s cool bro, I hear 50% of planes will experience floppy wing syndrome at some point in their life. Nothing to be ashamed of.

[@AIRBORN_EEvEE]

i kept ignoring this BC i thought it was the FLIGHT-TEST vid i had already seen, but WAIT! it was peter all along!

[@devinahudson]

Make a Biplane next. Shorter wings plus opportunities for additional strength via cross supports. Biplanes are how the original designs solved floppy wing syndrome! ;)

[@mute8s]

I know this comment is a bit late but hopefully you will see it Peter. Whenever I see your videos I always wish my dad was still alive to see them and this video was no different. Thank you for reminding me of the great times my father and I had with the aircraft industry. Keep up the good work!!!!!

[@johndc7446]

0:24 my ear can tolerate this sound more than the formula e engines high frequency sounds.

[@KayJblue]

Exactly what I was thinking.

[@coolmann2257]

Next time you should try making landing gear for your plane with motors on the wheels, so you won’t have the plane clipping anything when it takes off. Another idea is to use a plastic over the foam to make the plane stronger, and so it will be easier to control. One thing I noticed was that you put the water bottles in the front of the plane free to move around. Next time make it so they can’t move around, otherwise the weight shifts to that side and the plane will be tilting towards that side causing it to crash. Overall, this was an amazing idea and it did fly on the second try.

[@blockmaster5690]

U should make a rc cargo plane that drops fireworks, support packeges, water balloons ect.

[@daveanderson1502]

I used to lanch hydrogen balloons by using acid and aluminum and I got garment bags from a dry cleaner. You can seal them with a iron . Strip the air out of the bag then pump up the hydrogen. It carried quite a load

[@philippvonferrarikellerhof1720]

This is the first time I've come across one of your videos and I have to say that you sir are not only one heck of a KZbin creator but you know how to edit like a boss. Also, the ideas you come up with to make the camera shots makes even a random watcher click that subscribe button. You got my vote! Oh and your "About" page is perfectly said on what your goal is because your doing it. Keep up the good work.

[@markyesh5763]

I think a left crosswind turn might have been better, based on what I saw with the winds. It looked like once the plane was aligned to the wind it wethercocked(if I'm using that term right, with the correct spelling. It's been a while since groundschool for pilot training). So yea, it wethercocked and got stuck there. I might be mistaken with my analysis, but looks like it wasnt stable enough to come out of that, on top of what was explained at the end of the clip. Intresting video thanks.

[@tomrust312]

Use differential motor thrust next time for each wing. Then you don't need to roll - just yaw with the motors to turn.

[@arson8582]

Big props for getting that beast up in the air. Is that not a record??

Peter you have MINIONS ! Have you ever seen the 1929 Savoia Marchetti s65 Schnieder Cup racer ? It's a totally awesome looking aircraft. Would make a cool homebuilt project or even model *( it's even an seaplane ! ) You could change to spoiler roll control to eliminate the problem of the ailerons becoming wing warping trim tabs.

Image he remakes this as a biplane/triplane next. He could enable it to turn faster with shorter wings, but more wings and more propellers

[@MrLittlecat123]

This is so cool to watch!

[@KingKiwi77]

Why not add 2 carbon fiber or similar density material rods across the wingspan to maintain some rigidity? You would need it as the plane's wingspans get larger as it seems to me. mechanical engineer though so aero can definitely introduce complications. Maybe even some for om truss between the two if it's light enough?

[@carabooseOG]

A dumb question - why not use home depot aluminum box tube (or similar) for a fore and aft spar? I've built a few planes at home using that stuff and it's solid.. mind you their wingspan is limited to about 10'.

I challenge a tiny RC to land on the rear cargo door of the plane in mid-flight, look, just getting a small plane into that square hole at the back would be an almost impossible challenge With cameras spread inside at the end of the tail and on the hood of the plane and on the wings we can have several images of the From the successful landing inside the big plane, a challenge is launched who agrees to a UP

[@emmanuelcabaud4269]

there's one orange propeller, I can't unsee it

[@bensendthompson2296]

I have a design idea for you. Combine a quadcopter and an omniwheel remote control car and a wall driving remote control car. That way you can use the props to blow it against the wall while driving in all directions. And then revers thrust and blast off the wall and land safely.

[@bravo0105]

That’s insane.

[@thetransportationguy7930]

It’s wider than it is long, interesting.

[@honklerton732]

Next time - SPEND MORE TIME in making your FUSELAGE more sturdy as well! This will translate into better rigidity for the wings, especially if you had a wider fuselage, the span was too large for it's fuselage for proper support given the material you used. So use a better more sturdy material, or redo your design. Like... instead of single fixed wing, try a Biplane with a shorter span? Or even a Tri-wing? I think a Biplane design with a much shorter wingspan would be best for both structural reasons and you get more room to fit all those motors on it.
