I feel like you need to turn the vertical stabilizers into rudders for turns so that you don't have to rely on roll and par thrust to turn as those tend to cause one of the wings to dip into the water for anything more than a shallow turn

Please please duct something like an EDF to the underside of the wings, distributed underside ducts along the front edge, facing rearwards, to really ram the air into the right area for generating separation between the water and wing/fuselage. I feel like you could really isolate the effect with something like this, over forward mounted props. Even if you just use ducted air for the basic lift/planing and a separate prop for forward drive....

I'm always thrilled to see an update from you. Fantastic stuff. IT'S SO FAST! Could you put some dynamic aero under or through the body that could create a kind of dynamic spring for chop? Maybe that sounds crazy. Like if you pair the ToF lidar heigh sensor or even just measure with the accelerometer for chop and move some dampaning baffles. I dunno. Seems possible in my head. Seeing how fast this thing is man, you gave me a bug here. I've been working on a little camera boat project and have been wondering what the next step is. Ground effect plane. Sweet.

Awesome stuff, I really think a larger scale is on your side with this design and most of your 'issues' result from it being smaller. Maybe increasing weight and power would allow for smoother ground effect and also a higher ground effect ceiling as more air is required to be compressed to gain flight. Also I'd love to see if a vertical control surface coupled with differential thrust would help with the large turning circle or induce other problems like rolling or drifting. I really think you're on to something amazing here, keep it up!

​@@Simon-jv9bm The Venturi and Bernoulli effects that he describes at 3:32 are what make the F1 ground effect designs work and produce downforce. Of course the F1 cars do whatever they possibly can to avoid creating a RAM effect because they want to ride on a cushion of rubber (the tyres) instead of a cushion of air. In either case, both are types of "ground effect vehicles" but with different intended functions and focuses. EDIT: The porpoising under F1 cars also isn't caused by competing ground effects like we see on this vehicle, but by the car body getting too close to the ground, cutting off the Bernoulli effect and causing the car to lose downforce until airflow is restored and the Bernoulli effect kicks in again.

2:09 that low pressure zone is actually at a higher pressure. Its acting as a divergent nozzle. Look up the effects of a convergent/divergent nozzle with both subsonic and supersonic flows. Bernoulli states that at a subsonic flow, a fluid at a given pressure will increase its pressure through a divergent path/nozzle.

FWIW some IRL Ekranoplans are quite capable of flight out of ground effect. The Russian A90 had a ceiling of 10000ft, and the early-2000s Boeing Pelican concept would have been able to reach as high as 25000ft. They generally lose efficiency when flying, but it enables them to use conventional airports.

@rctestflight I've been biting my tongue waiting to see if you ever mention a certain effect that's contributing to your ekranaplans. I've enjoyed this series very much and fascinated by the concept. To get to the point, I'm pretty sure this is what's happening: You often refer to "Ram air", as if the speed of the air is the most important factor in making it fly. When your creation (I'm going to simply call it your 'rig') 'flies normally - that is, when it's holding its ideal altitude, what's taking place is the resonance of the air bouncing between the [under]surface of the wing and the water. This vibration pushes the rig upward with a pulsing motion that we can't see. If the rig flies higher, the greater distance causes a slower resonance which is also weaker & unable to produce enough upward force to sustain the altitude. Resultingly, the rig 'falls' back down to the air's natural frequency (which is determined by the square area of the wing) where its weight is equal to the collective force of the bounces. It 'wants' to ride on the average of those bounces, or frequencies. Imagine if you were a cubic inch of air, floating around, minding your business. Suddenly a wing goes overhead. What you would experience at first is a short but violent vibration ('violent', relative to floating around doing nothing). As the wing passes, the distance to the water becomes shorter, thereby compressing the air waves/pulses, making the upward pressure stronger. For most of those vibrations, you helped push the wing upward. In your efforts to create a rig that performs well but doesn't 'want' to fly, my feeling is you should focus attention to this resonance frequency to make it strong at its natural pitch but dissipate quickly above or below that frequency. I'm not an airologist but I have a ton of experience in acoustics, which requires an intense understanding of resonance. I'm also an RC veteran, so I'm often delighted whenever you overcome an Arduino problem. Using Arduino & related stuff is new to me. If you took the time to read this, I thank you, and, I hope that in some way this information makes a difference to your next project.

This is cool! I love how it looks when you get up on the ram effect and just start cruising. I'd call this one a success. I can't say for certain because I haven't used this myself, but I think I'd prefer the craft if it had at least some of the horizontal stabilizer. It seems to be easier to keep it stable without the PID (at least until you add the extra weight) when you have it. Some things I'd want to experiment with are different sizes of H. stabilizer, spoilers for the H. stabilizer and/or the main body to try and eliminate aerodynamic lift, and using "flap rudders" (rudders that work by extending a pair of flaps from where a rudder would be) to see if they can create similar turns without having to use so much roll or differential thrust. Can't wait to see what's next!

Two questions: 1) I know “how to” videos aren’t really a thing you do on this channel but I would be interested to see some content on waterproofing a cadex. 2) when you switch from futaba to DJI/cadex, why use the DJI controller vs something like edgeTX and crossfire? Wouldn’t you have more control with your model and modes? I ask this question as someone with much less experience but find myself in similar circumstances. I build several models/craft and sometimes consider having the DJI controller but I feel like having a more open source TX provides more versatility. Again, I know this deviates from the content, but I would be interested to hear what drives these decisions.

Nice project and presentation. This is regarding turn radius. 1. Is difference left right forward thrust offered a desirable turn radius? 2. Is difference motor tilt offer a desirable turn radius? 3. Is mixed elevator-aileron offer a desirable turn radius? Caveat: over steering into violent spin. 4. Consider rudder channel controlled “dip (left/right) tip sticks” to skim water surface to produce drag to aid reduce turn radius. 5. Consider mode change from GE to airborne to enable a banking turn. 6. Airborne mode capability can help get around surface obstacles too. Hope this helps.

I'm in the process of setting up a FPV system on my Arrma Kraton not liking 5.8ghz. not sure if 413mhz. or 1.2ghz. One of my favorite video was the time you flew the plane while following it in the car. I really enjoyed flying FPV just to see how far I could go which my record was only 1/2 mile. Now I am trying it on a ground vehicle. Looking forward for the next video.

Thank you! A few things I would like to see as experiments on this small depron unit: Motors on the corners of the nose! Using the prop-vortex to seal the pressure. I think massive gains are possible. But who knows, maybe it'll be unstable or something. And IF you have a (passive) horizontal stabiliser, put it at motor height, in line with the motor, to even out the forces. If those are in line with the "wing" it should still not want to "fly", but hover at speed. Maybe even delete the fuse... place the battery on top , or split the battery. Make the sidepods slightly more buoyant, and have the motors directly in front of them. (Not that useful, if the goal is to have a manned version.)

Random thought what about combining a ground effect plane with a hydro foiling boat, (so just a wing with a single foil sticking down in to the water) in my head the "flite controls" would be handled by the foil under water and the wing is used for the lift. IE when the the wing starts to pitch up to much the foil either pulls the front back down or a trailing foil could push the the rear of the wing up both ideas could keep the plane level with hopefully very little drag. the foil could also work like a rudder so the plane would purely control throttle (in theory). as long as you kept the foil away weeds it would definitely be a super weird vehicle. p.s. maybe you could have a front razor edge on the foil to cut through small weeds hmmm ?

Hi! Have been watching a lot of your ground effect stuff. Have you tried / have it been discussed to use a water foil in front of ground effect vehicles to help with breaking from water? Quite small and shallow waterfoil most likely. I Like the videos very much! Huge thanks for making them!

You really should look into hydrofoil boats. Not the classic ones with passive hydrofoils but the newer ones that have active stabilization and seem able to fly above the waves completely level.

There were turboprop versions of the ekranoplane - maybe those are the best design examples that would translate to model building. The final versions had a prop at the top of the tail, which would tend to keep the nose down while holding the high pressure portion of the wing near the water. They also had large flaps, which must have been an important part of trimming the wing for efficient cruise, as well as take-off.
