[@ethankapeliela6482]

You should take the helicarrier and make it so it can move through water as an rc boat then take off from water too. Basically just make a working helicarrier

[@FliteTest]

What are your ideas for a Star Wars 'Will It Fly?" in 2015?

[@LuisRussi750]

I would like to see slave 1 come to life in the FT world!

[@DonRideauxCrenshaw]

A TIE Fighter and an X-Wing are obvious builds -- Maybe with combat. Cut-the-ribbon would be cool; more violence would be cooler. Then float a Death Star. Jedi with X-Wings attack. TIE Fighters defend. And don't forget the Millennium Falcon as the wild card.

[@VPXM2012]

Since it would be a remote control drone, I would love to see someone redevelop a way to electrify the whole body - in - flight, including propellers, to lessen air drag for better and longer lift. Two hour flight time anyone?

[@BF3ZOMBIE]

Death Star Millennium Falcon Star Destroyer

[@welshpete12]

That must be a world's first taking off and landing on a airborne aircraft carrier !

[@BoulderInTime]

welshpete12 uss Acron a zeppelin with 3 biplanes

[@scoilchomiaiccnsstudents6868]

welshpete12 ehm I literally built a 10times bigger one and I made everyone try land on mine No one did because it flew up to 106feet

[@oakkant1320]

Scoil chomiaic CNS Students weird flex but ok

[@sadenuttie2234]

Scoil chomiaic CNS Students why didn’t you post a video then

[@Biscuits2]

Scoil chomiaic CNS Students fuckin weeb go back to the classroom

[@Crazyoldman84]

I'm so jealous of all the fun you guys have

[@rctestflight]

Too cool! I wanna see what will happen if you take it up really high then cut the power. I feel like it might have a nice stable slow free fall to the ground.

[@WillHain]

You've hd feelings like that before ;)

[@markhondaturbo]

Could also put a rocket on the front like your h-quad. I love your quadcopter free-fall vids.

[@FliteTest]

I think we definitely could have pushed it more! Maybe we will before it retires. :)

[@scratchbuildrc4224]

Daniel!! Your should totally work with Peter on a project!! It would be amazing!

[@cartergreene5571]

here is another idea, take it up high and make it do a flip! :D

[@StoneBlueAirlines]

And the bar has been raised once again!

[@FliteTest]

Thanks guys!

[@StoneBlueAirlines]

Love the idea so cool.

I believe that this is the first ever episode I’ve ever watched from flite test. 10/10 still holds up today

[@franz_stigler]

it should be illegal to have this much fun

[@draftdragon213]

agree

[@shutdahellup69420]

true

[@EvertGuzman]

Nick Orozco i think you mean the faa

[@renzozaragosa126]

don't jinx it

[@lightning9595]

Franz_Stigler why

[@deahnasdad]

As a former US sailor who was stationed on the USS Independence and USS Constellation, I very much liked this.

[@ITicklefish08]

Hey my dad was on the Independence

[@whatguy05]

My dad was on the Constellation, CV 64, back toward the end of Vietnam

[@kiloblock4950]

I was wondering why we don't have one in real life yet you should make it 4 times bigger with landing gear better mean more stable also I know you guys can do it lol I actually want one of those

[@Rogue9]

Wow, this is so cool! Awesome job guys :-)

[@Alfiemoooon]

Nani?? What's rogue-9 doing here 😂

[@naenae669]

It was 5 years ago

[@Cookieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

yea

[@kevinbeaman2245]

I like how they were at the university of Akron, and there was an actually us flying aircraft carrier in the 20s that was named the USS Akron

[@Sam-jv6fb]

The Akron wasn’t a aircraft carrier like we know it. It was a Zeppelin that could hold 3 small aircraft inside to launch and land inside while it was in flight

[@jimmysavile69]

@@Sam-jv6fb so, the closest we have to this?

[@3DVizzion]

This helicarrier is incredible, a flying megalith. Nice work, truly impressed!

[@alexitrinune1460]

This must be the reason why the SHIELD uses VTOLs..... :3 hahaha

[@boobookeys47]

I'm loving this channel!!! As an aerospace engineer wannabe this channel has the perfect content to satisfy my aerospace needs :)

[@benjaminbranham4743]

you guys have more fun than probably anyone on youtube or anywhere else

[@krislizana2017]

as a kid i dreamed of having an rc sea plane that i could fly in first person view, but there was nothing like this in the 90s.. i still dream about it every now and then. and now i see that it is possible now, these guys are living my dream

[@Cassius335]

Cool to see a Helicarrier in the air. One question: Will It Float?

[@FliteTest]

It does :) Successful water take offs and landings.

[@leonardjustinjsering7197]

Yes

[@Mister_Eiffel]

I wonder if you could somehow shove helium ballasts in the hull to try an alleviate the burden on the propellers.

[@Iproductions0]

Francis Lafontaine. É. Maybe just baloons with helium lol

[@the_worst_of_friends924]

Use a vacuum inside and make it not only a helicarriar but also a blimpycarrier. You could keep the fans but you could use much smaller ones

[@m3lod1an]

That landing of the Fokker was probably the most amazing thing I've seen captured on video!

[@ContainsAthroughZ]

The title is will it fly...yet the cover image is it flying

[@neohere8739]

well @ least is not click bait, unlike 99% of video thumbs of youtube/internet streaming sites.....

[@MagoGuitarrista]

The title is refering to the clickbait "Will it fly?" Well aparently despite the thumbnail it is...

[@tibfulv]

Could be dropping, lol.

[@herblaryngitis8103]

a lot of videos use photoshop

[@ariesisogon7987]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Mrtojo]

That is so fun to watch! Great job to you all!

[@1973Washu]

I wonder if landings would be more successful if you fitted arrestor gear to that carrier.

[@rianrushwood1426]

1973Washu too small of a scale I think

[@theartinwoodworking128]

It's the scale difference between the 2 crafts.

[@eklhaft4531]

there was kind of. I think they closed it inproperly so there was a hole in that runway kinda working like an arresting cable.

[@DeDaDemon]

@XxMcBiGnOsTrIls xXmKbIgNoStRiLs That's a cable that planes with small hooks "hook" onto while landing. It stops them so they don't have to brake.

Very cool looking Avengers Helicarrier, great going guys FliteTest

[@chuckypilotaus3962]

I'm keen on seeing you guys design a deLorean quad (Back to the Future style), based on a 250mm miniquad frame, maybe with a foamboard shell? Plans for sharing would be awesome too. Love the video.

[@chuckypilotaus3962]

Great, thanks.

[@JustReadable]

Great idea and implementation to do a helicarrier. This is something I would love to see more.

[@nox1232]

Would be cool to explain how to make our own ones!

[@skyscall]

Hey, you should make a "Will it fly" video for the X-49 Night Raven from Ace Combat 3. It is a pretty simple design, literally shaping like two boomerangs on top of each other, but it would be interesting...

[@skyscall]

And the classic H-4 Hercules "Spruce Goose"... I'd love to see if the world's widest plane ever made even flies.

[@njd834]

Holy shit yes Ace Combat 3 was my favourite game ever!

[@joshuawfinn]

+Sky Eye They did do a video on just that. Look up "Rocket Glider and Free Flight", and it's about halfway through the video.

[@fleducation001]

holy crap, this was frickin incredible! thanks for making the video!

[@keithbrown2458]

That was great and just plain fun. Thanks guys keep up the good work.

[@genmyer]

The Helicarrier really looks like a hoverboard! (that's a great idea for a creation.) (yet dangerous...)

[@AsgardStudios]

Wow! Epic build!

[@ExperimentalFunRCss]

What i think would be really cool is stereotypical Cessna 172,182 frame with a ducted fan unit that suck air in. So the air is sucked trough where the engine usually is and exit out the back some where. I've been meaning to do this for a while but i haven't had the stuff to do it. What do you think?

[@speedynj7589]

hmm nice i have some stuff laying around might try it... Is the goal to be fast?

[@ExperimentalFunRCss]

Speedy NJ Not necessarily it would probably be much more "interesting" fast but not particular specifications
