Hi, I'm Avery, and I fly things. Drones, RC planes, Paramotors, Balloons and more. I am the creator of the Open Gauge, an open-source instrument for ultralight pilots. USPPA rated foot launch instructor, and USHPA rated paraglider pilot. I intend to post everything I do that is flying related. Uploads will be sporadic. Join me for the ride!
Moonshiners 2024: Thursday Evening (Flight 9)
Flights 7 and 8 were not interesting enough to film (aliexpress motor mid-day non-thermalling) or were too bland (360 camera mount broke, headcam only) to take the time to edit, so here's #9!

I'm 4 flights in now, 2 with wheels and 2 without- the big takeaways are: high power and low airspeed will pitch up hard. Fly it fast, fly it scale, and use SAFE if you're hand launching! Yes, really! Support your local hobby store!

Yes, I still have the Aliexpress motor. Yes, it still flies. Yes, it needed some tuning to fly here at 4000 ft density altitude. No, I am not suffering from hearing loss. Music: Enhance by | e s c p | www.escp.space escp-music.bandcamp.com

This is a sharp looking plane. It's a bit smaller and a bit more expensive than the banana hobby offering but looks to have way better scale details. Can't wait to fly it!

Probably the best sunrise fog/cloud cover of the whole week. I also did a little ridge surfing, nothing too fancy.

I was at moonshiners Monday through Sunday, and I flew, saw, and did many things. Some of them were not flying related. Those things will be in this video. Check for video cards in the top right corner for the flying videos as they appear here. Camped out with @MikeCanFly and @daredevil-dave with guest appearances by @CurtisFlies

Who's flying that carve?

Hey !!
Hi! 😊
You got my corn field landing. Luckily I landed in a bare spot. First time running out of gas!
Hey, don't do that!
Great flight!
Have you fielded any sponsorship offers yet? Nice job with the vlog.
Pfff, no? I can't imagine the bar being THAT low 🤣
Waiting for the Fri-Sunday videos when it really gets crowded
Working on that now
The flattop is a horrible paramotor. Don't buy it... take it if they give it as a present...
The only reason I had access to one was because I was immediately selling it after flying it 🤣 every experience builds experience!
It's so funny seeing you take off on the Aliexpress, the trail of smoke and how small it looks. Another great video, and great experience.
Engine running a bit lean Avery? maybe idles just a bit high
At this altitude it would be a bit rich. And high idle doesn't bother me, I'd rather have it idle too high than too low.
Cringe
That was the joke, yes
Not just a man with a butt fan. You do some of the coolest stuff. Wish I knew someone like you in my younger years. Very interesting, neat and pretty cool.
Nice flight 👍
I really want to make it out to Moonshiners next year. Thanks for sharing this video.
Don't forget to buy Charlies Soap!
Project airtime! Superfly Paragliding!
Nice to see a PPG working out of an airport. Great vid.
Glad you liked it!
Stay safe👍
Hope you did your Vella check before the low bar and all out trimmers lol
I did, and I think about that every time. I actually had my wingtip camera pop off twice during the event so it's part of that check too. Lots of flying this week was done with just bar though, the F3 has the juice to catch up to most without trims.
@@AveryFlies you try the PK system?
@warrenkral6562 not yet, but the way I fly I really should.
@@AveryFlies It's the best part about the wing. If things get sketchy, drop the bar and you're free to check the wing with the brakes at that moment.
I didn’t see this color on the site?
I really enjoy your videos thanks for posting
Great content. Thanks for posting . . . and protecting the ID of the not so innocent jerk who flew into Dave's canopy.
Not my place to expose them. Mistakes happen 🤷
28:48 go back to bed lol. "I'm gonna go fly" as he's yawning lol
I'm getting "sky sick"!
Can't wait until next year! (hopefully with a little less rain).
So sweet 😮
Good flying with you Avery!

Great video. I have a question about your setup. If I have the ICOM bluetooth capable transceiver, that will connect to the Sena device via bluetooth as it is -- is that correct? The reason I ask is that the SR10 is out of stock and Sena says there may not be any more available. So with the SMH-10 I can connect my phone OR the ICOM, but not both -- Correct?
The scena headset connects to two Bluetooth devices. The phone device gets priority and microphone input, so pair the icom radio directly to the Sena as a phone. Then you can pair your phone as a second device, it will not have microphone input but you can still hear music and alerts from it
I’m jealous. Stuck in this hospital bed
Hopefully not from a rough landing
@@adamm3492 bypass and heart valve replacement.
@@pittsjohn57 oh wow hope you're feeling good soon
Nooooo 😂
Great review. Appreciate the 💨 noises... too funny.
Do these auto inflate as well when submerged?
Yes they do! czcams.com/video/d_WwcJpBFg4/video.html
looks like everyone liked this video but dell lmao
How do you rate the Apco F5 to the Ozone Spyder 3 ? I am about to buy a F5.
Very similar. I think the F5 inflates a little nicer. The Spyder has less confusing risers though.
Any chance you can do a video on how to set up the Bluetooth on both a phone and the radio?
That's different between headsets and radios. I have the icom radio connected to my headset as a phone, and my phone connected to the headset as a device. The device doesn't get microphone access but it does let the icom radio have priority.
@@AveryFlies I got em both to work. Both the icom and the phone connect to the Sena 10 and work perfectly.
Sweet, sorry it took a while to get back to ya. Life keeps happening!
@@AveryFlies you had already answered me in the Paramotor group a couple weeks ago.
I'm looking for a new wing because of how much weight I've lost. I've been flying the Spyder 3 and love it. Could you give me a little comparison? Thanks
Very similar, though the top speed of the F5 is better and I think it inflates a little easier
Did you mount that to the harness? I just got one, and am having a hard time trying to mount it so the swing arms don't get in the way, but I don't want to mount it on the harness because my reserve straps go through the harness.
If you got the U float, it goes to the frame. The dual float goes on the shoulder straps of the harnrss
Nice ride-a-long...this lz close to Mojo's?
About 45 minutes away
Nice to be part of something bigger than yourself…nice setup and LZ’s
Juicing the Algo with a comment! Great vid like always man!
Sweet
Cool video! I just went up to 8,000 and shut it off. It was so peaceful gliding down. What an amazing sport!
How to make the aviation radio work with this?
The cheapest way would be a second wired headset specifically for that radio type. The more expensive way would be a Bluetooth system
My old paramotor instructor used to always say: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it", and to a degree you can get away with this approach. Then again, it really sucks when your motor breaks down because you never did the maintenance. Nice vid!
Great Video. I really enjoy watching your videos!!! Keep them coming!
Is there a waiting period to match that head gasket? The one you said was .3 measurement. You mentioned hours so do you have to wait for it to “decompress” or something before measuring and choosing its match?
No, no wait, just matched and done.
Was waiting for this one as mine is coming up. Thanks for posting
Nice
Classic torque wrench as breaker bar Love it lol😊
Gotta do what I gotta do!
Just curious. No judgment but I didn't see a lot of cleaning going on during the 100 hour. Do you do that at the 50 hour? Things I'm thinking of are spraying out the carburetor with brake cleaner cleaning the head in the Piston?
I sprayed the cylinder and head with some brake cleaner, but overall very clean to begin with
I love it when a plan comes together like that, nice video
