    In the early days of aviation, many pioneers experienced failures and accidents. For example, the Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur, had several crashes in their early flying experiments. Similarly, other early aviators such as Alberto Santos-Dumont and Percy Pilcher also suffered crashes. These accidents and failures were seen as an unfortunate but necessary part of the process of developing the technology and understanding the principles of flight.

    It’s actually amazing how some of these builds are more complicated than an actual glider.

      Probably because current flying techniques are the most 'simple and efficient' way to fly.
      Most of the concepts in this video will actually be able to get off the ground using stronger engines and lighter materials we have now, but they will be fuel-inefficient or unstable
      Guess complicated doesn't always mean advanced

      I assume It was a chicken and egg thing IMO the only way to even build a simple glider, is to know modern flight physics and before people invented airplanes, tested real flight and what worked and didn't worked, no one knew the physics behind it. How air currents, air temperature and height affects the glider lift, how to do pitch, yaw and bank control and stuff.

      Sky-Car - the device is an ancestor of contemporary flying saucers. This umbrella plane looks funny, but it is unlikely that the American inventor spent money on making the machine just for fun. The flight principle based on generating compression under a vibrating plane is no worse than the flight principle of traditional airplanes. When the device was being created, engineers realized that it would give a higher lifting force. Step by step it turned out during the tests that the device could perform a flight if the oscillation frequency was measured in megahertz and the amplitude of oscillation in millimeters. But at that time there were no technologies to get the total power of vibration and achieve supersonic frequency. The aircraft-​building company of Chance Vought cooperated with the Naval Department. The Skimmer flying saucer that appeared after WWII was a result of the cooperation. It is believed to be an experimental variant of a propeller-​driven airplane, however it is not ruled out that Chance Vought made the model especially for running tests of the aerodynamic lift of electrokinetic engines.
      In the late 1940s, first flying saucers appeared in the US. They resembled telephone loudspeakers: impulse electromagnets made one or several huge membranes beat the air at a megahertz frequency. And a streamline top part of the device provided the difference of drag forces on the top and on the bottom. But still some facts pertaining to the strange device remained unclear. A flying saucer could not generate any lifting force until it threw something off the way rockets did. This is a ring whirl: it does not leave vacuum to intake a flying saucer. It is necessary to keep a saucer on the ring whirl just for a couple of microseconds, the period within which a new whirl is generated.
      Flying saucers with impulse electromagnets were heavy and could not cover long distances. So, Americans had to use submarines to deliver them to the Soviet shores that gave rise to stories telling that UFOs emerged from under water. Later, new devices appeared where no electromagnetic field was used to shake a propelling membrane. The bodies of such devices were made of piezoceramic, and vibration appeared thanks to the piezoelectric effect (we know that piezoelectric tweeters make the sound in electronic alarm clocks and mobile phones). The new generation apparatuses were no longer saucers but spheres, ellipsoids and other three-​dimensional figures haloed with ionized gas. The USSR got UFOs of its own in the 1960s-70s. Once, Soviet Academician Shklovsky asserted in the popular informational program Vremya (Time) that there were no other creatures besides earth dwellers in the Universe. It sounded like an official statement of the Central Committee of the Soviet Communist Party saying that no aliens ever existed, and all reports alleging that people witnessed UFOs were misinformation. Special committees immediately started censoring newspaper publications and deleted everything that could be connected with UFO visits and aliens.
      At that very period Americans already had the third generation of flying saucers, dark objects with just few zones on them glowing. Those were whirl activators: the glow on the bottom to make the object fly and the glow on the side (so-​called illuminators) to make it move to the sides. Now used motor panel. They are arranged as a plasma TV screen. But the cell arresters is the tube of the rail launcher in cities. Plasma sparks popping up with great speed thousands of times per second - this creates a toroidal flux rings, which propel the apparatus.
      Flying saucers are not in fact fantastic aliens with antigravity machines but quite earthly apparatuses with electrokinetic engines that take off and move thanks to creating vortex rings. This is an absolutely unusual idea to us. Is not it? However, as far as we believe in the existence of aliens we should also recognize a new flight technology that was invented some time ago and has been kept secret until recently. When explained clearly, the principles of the technology are quite understandable and do not seem to be fantastic. We know that vortexes are also very important in generating the lifting force of flying insects, take a dragonfly for instance. Now that we know the principle of flight of flying saucers we can trace the development stages of the technology.
      But despite of the fact the American military are not going to declassify the technique. These days UFOs can be often observed in Iran and China - that proves that the US keeps on employing its secret apparatuses.
      A question arises why the break-​through transport technology has never been declassified and officially used? In fact, application of the revolutionary breakthrough technology would have inevitably resulted in transforming the entire of the civilization and infringed upon the interests of a great number of people. Such apparatuses could help easily cross governmental borders, the thing that would have made them a cherished dream of terrorists and drug dealers. Such machines could be more popular than transport using petrol which would inevitably mean bankruptcy of oil tycoons and automakers. And the key reason of the secrecy in this situation is the fact that use of such flying saucers contradicts the international law; these machines cross governmental borders without notification of authorities. So, the advantages are worthy of keeping the invention secret for so many years. And this is why the secret of flying saucers was kept for so long. The story about the secret of UFOs says it is t ime to say goodbye to a nice legend about aliens no matter how we like it.
      In the book of Christopher Buckley's "little Green men" calls for the President of the United States - the requirement to disclose the mystery of UFOs, behind which lies the secret activities of the secret military.

      It all started with the vibrating umbrella-orthopter "Sky Car" by James Pitts, then the umbrella was closed with a dome and devices appeared according to the scheme of conventional electromagnetic vibrating speakers (membrane + inductance) - fragments of the membrane were found by a farmer in Roswell. Then they created piezoelectric motors or with small dischargers on the surface (they glowed all over the body due to air ionization), and now these are aircraft with plasma propulsion panels (because they are angular - that is, with flat surfaces). Thousands of discharge cells are packed tightly in the motor panels - they shoot plasma streams (railgun architecture - coaxial electrodes). The ionized air of the spark discharge is accelerated in the railgun cell by the Lorentz force to enormous speeds - a kind of ramjet engine is obtained. Just imagine! - tens of thousands of small ramjet engines assembled in a panel and firing plasma synchronously with a huge frequency (hundreds of kilohertz). Plasma jets form toroidal vortices of air - this air cushion creates lift and acceleration force. In my article "UFO - it's made in the USA" and in the books "UFO Hunting" and "UFO Elimination" all this is described in detail. The technology is quite mundane - it is known in the smallest details due to information leaks. For example, air ionization in coaxial railgun cells is created with the help of radiation (radioactive polonium is introduced into the metal). Devices of this type were used all 50-60-70-80 for secret missions (they took off, as a rule, from special submarines). With the fall of the USSR, their use by the United States was practically curtailed (in the novel "Little Green Men" by Christopher Buckley, a speechwriter for Bush Sr., a scene is described where the US president decides to curtail the project with "flying saucers"). The curtailment of the project can be recorded by the drop in magnesium consumption in the United States, since such fuel was used in fuel cells (magnesium tapes burned in forced galvanic batteries), this is 2007-2008. However, the development of the technology continued later in the Russian Federation and China (the technology was restored by reverse engineering methods for downed devices). Secrecy, however, remained, and there was no civilian use, because the technology is not suitable for this - harmful microwave from pulsed plasma engines (harm to pilots and the impact on electrical appliances inside and along the flight line). The payload is low (but one nuclear charge will pull.) There is no radio communication - unmanned vehicles can fly and maneuver only according to the program. Previously, there was a narrow application profile - rare spy missions (so that pilots do not receive a lot of radiation). Reconnaissance aircraft of this type were often observed at military bases, missile launch pads and airfields. They were even seen by peaceful explorers in the taiga, where glades were laid for seismic exploration - UFOs flew there to check whether military construction was underway (I myself heard stories about it))). I think this technology will be declassified soon, and cargo airships with flickering round plasma panels on the hull surface will appear in the Arctic sky.

      Ignorant and foolish people being "creative" is no kind of creativity. Just foolish endeavors for dreamers whose ambition way outweigh their actual knowledge. These saps here were trying to re-invent the wheel when motorized, controlled flying had already been invented. There are tons of stories of *real* pilots refusing to try and fly these bizarre machines knowing full well they would never work and they'd just embarrass themselves.
      Read up about the infamous "Christmas Bullet" , widely seen as the worst aircraft ever designed. Some dentist (Dr. Christmas) had some bizarre idea that despite having absolutely no education in engineering (he was dentist for crying out loud) he could design an aircraft. The fool had this strange idea that aircraft get their lift from wings flapping like that of a bird so he designed the wings to be weak. When he was finished he asked a few former World War One fighter pilots to test fly it. The first pilot took a look at the aircraft and immediately said:"I'm not going to fly that rickety contraption." Dr. Christmas hired another former WWI pilot to have a look and he too said:"This so-called plane is a death trap, you couldn't pay me enough to sit in it." Eventually Dr. Christmas managed to get a young pilot trainee with very little experience flying planes to test it. The poor guy took off and after a few seconds the wings tore off sending the plane straight into the ground killing the poor pilot. Dr. Christmas didn't want this to stop him and found some other hapless pilot who were stupid enough to accept the salary before looking at the aircraft. He took crashed and died after the wings fell off.
      Some people wonder why Dr. Christmas didn't go to prison for killing pilots. Turns out he had some contract with the US Army to develop "new aircraft" and as such was pretty much under their protective umbrella.
      The builders of the pyramids were creative. The Greeks and Romans were creative in their building and science. The inventor of the steam machine and internal combustion machine were creative. These chimps here were ambitious but certainly not creative. When ignoramuses try to be creative it all ends up being a circus with clowns.

    • @wopmf4345FxFDxdGaa20
      @wopmf4345FxFDxdGaa20 Před 2 lety +1

      Well, not speed either, but a wing shape that generates lift. Wright brothers built a wind tunnel, that allowed them to very quickly test out vast amount of different wing shapes to deduce which produces the highest lift. Doing experiments is very important when the theory / knowledge doesn't exists. Building things like wind tunnels allows to do the experiments much more efficiently and safely, as you don't need to build a full plane to test out one part, and it allows to measure things much more accurately in a fixed setup.

    it's pretty funny, they were all focused on beating the wings, when it was the wing's airfoil shape that was the true secret. Some of those could have actually flown if they had just ditched the flapping mechanisms and added a forward motion method. It's really a great example of occam's razor applied to engineering.

      But we could not generate the initial energy for lift off with flaps. That can do its job mid air.

      Well, not really. Fixed wing was known to be capable of flying, but the big obstacles in the end were how to control it, and what wing shape produces the highest lift. Engine was also solved already. For these reasons for example Wright brothers built a wind tunnel for testing different wing shapes very quickly and effectively to find out the best shape. They also developd the controls in a very systematic way with a glider without an engine. Engine was the last part they added as they considered it a solved problem, realizing the real problem was the manuvearability, by other words the controls. How to control the thing in air and how to always keep it in pilot control.
