Die Abhebegeschwindigkeit des Archaeopteryx beim Fussstart am Hang entspricht etwa derjenigen von Deltas (Drachen). Dies erlaubt bei entsprechender Hangneigung auch den Start ohne Wind. Der Archaeopteryx ist ein vielseitiger high-end Hängegleiter in Segelflugzeugkonfiguration mit aussergewöhnlicher Steigfähigkeit. Konzipiert ist er für den Fussstart von Berghängen sowie für eine Vielzahl weiterer Startarten wie Gummiseilstart vom Berg oder Auto-, Winden-, Flugzeug-, und UL-Schleppstarts von Flugplätzen.

Simple, easy, compact, manoeuvrable and aerodynamic glider
with integrated flaps. Just an ingenious human invention. It weighs only 64kg and can go at 30-130... Thanks Roger Ruppert, glad to see that.
Still heavier than the mademoiselle
Honestly, Escape from New York brought me here
1980: We will have flying cars and electric planes in the future
2020: *Plane with man legs*
Sooner or later one of human will break.
Lol
🤣🤣🤣
2012*
Flintstones Plane
Imagine landing at a controlled airport and then having to taxi!
Fellipe Fischer I can just imagine how stupid that would look lol.
@@SunScream ATC: "Expedite Taxi"
PILOT: "Sure" (starts jogging)
just land in the parking lot.
ILS Flintstone style please
Price?
Me talking to a pretty girl at the bar: “ I’m a pilot”
more like "I'm a plane"
More like “it was cramped In there”
Pretty girl replies.... "and?"
I'm a flyboy. Only several like me ever.
Anticipation building, excitement so thick...
An endeavor to peak at heaven, on a magically flown brick!...
Parents: “What do you want to be for Halloween?”
Me: 0:06
Lol😂
🤣 not the far off shot
do you want a man?
Comercial plane pilot announcement....
We are aproaching landing ,everybody legs down and start running pls.
Janusz J. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Reminds me of Flintstone cartoon 😂😂😂
@@SatyajitHerma 😆
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😭
this thing is pure innovation. Imagine a plane which can take off by just running. It takes almost no time to get airborne. And it flies without and engine. And its very light too. Simple geniuse.
It's just a more efficient glider like we had before powered aircraft.
Just like a hang glider, which we have had for many many years.
I just wonder how he controls it.
Yes BLOOODY indians cant do this
@@satisfaction6891 what do you mean by Bloody Indians?
It's funny watching them tuck up their legs.... like "Positive rate of climb, Gear Up"
Lol
Bingo!
lmao
Good idea
Gear up (loses shoe on launch)
*it seems that we’ve suffered a flat tire*
Looks like a lot of fun and easy to launch in light winds or stronger consistent winds. I imagine the ground handling practice is much less forgiving than a paraglider for a beginner. Thermal soaring would be amazing if it can pull a tight turn to stay in the core. The fuselage would also help prevent the water supply (and pilot) from freezing at high altitudes.
Imagine a plane sitting on the electrical lines like a bird
Now imagine how stupid that would be.
Okay, now what?
Breathtaking! Fills me with the thrill of being a soaring bird.... Must be amazing to actually fly it....
Mother: What do you want to be when you grow up Jimmy?
Jimmy: I want to be airplane!
Mother: Sorry Jimmy that's impossible.
Jim now: Hold my beer.
yes, everything must be in his time
Hold my blunt mom
Your my name fahad
@Paradise LOL
Jimmy should not have a beer to begin with..
Man, that is SO cool! It brought a smile to my face every time it was launched.
The last step of the take off checklist is
"Yell YABBA DABBA DOOOOOO!"
"Feet down, flaps 2, get the cabin ready for landing"
Ready for take off
tup tup tup tuptup tuptup tuptutptup
V1
rotation
Why does this make me laugh all the way through the video?
Maybe the spazzy old man run when they launch 😂
Cause he’s a damn plane😂🤣
@@connorm.8323 so true so true
Because you are a nitwit
Better known as the Flintstone Flyer!!
Genius lmao
YABADADOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
Perfect!
“How long do you think they can stay up there Wilma?”
“Ought to be any minute now Betty,the Big One’s getting tired.” 😂😂
You have made it! You have combined the disadvantages of gliders and paragliders into one system. Bulky and heavy as a glider, but with the weaker performance of a paraglider. Npbody will be able to carry it up the hills in his backpack and nobody will use it as a serious glider on the gliderports because of its high price and low performance. What is the target group then?
So cool!!
Flintstones would be proud!
😊👍
This is the plane with the most awesome chassis I've ever seen!
why are people surprised when hang gliders have been around for years? I do like the stick control on this model!
1:20 me trying to get to my seat on a normal flight.
quite possibly the most innovative glider I've ever seen the only thing that lets it down is the price
I have lived 52 years on this planet. I’m a dreamer ... and therein resides all reason for my following statement...there are three things I will never have the joy of experiencing:-
1) flying like these people are ...
2) riding in a submarine ...
3) bicycling across the earth...
And I’m ok with those concessions...
Strange how ones life leads one to the experience of life lived realising your dreams ... there is of course a truck load of privilege involved in these pursuits ...
No excuses
Live your lives
I am no victim of circumstances
Finde ich als Berufspilot sensationell !
Increíble me he enamorado de ese planeador, saludos desde Cuernavaca Morelos México!!!!! 🇲🇽
You know damn well imma be saying “Positive rate of climb, gear up” every time I pull my legs up if I fly one of these.
This is a very good hang glider. Stick control is super good.
it makes me remember to Otto Lillienthal ...
"Sacrifices must be made."
I had one but a thief ran off with it
LoL, than he killed himself shortly after launch? :D
He didn't fly away?
sick, hahahaha
Loool
Don't you mean "took off with it...." lol
That looks fun and scary at the same time I want to try it!!
The fact that this wasn't posted on April 1st means something
I'm having trouble getting the landing gear down..."No wait! I am the landing gear!"
I could handle that last ride, but the rest would have made me shit my pants. Lets see one of those guys landing this thing
The coolest Halloween costume ever
So incredible! I want! I want! I WANT!
At first it's like a Halloween costume... and then, it flies!
So sweet looking. Interesting type of glider
$83,000 for this is waaay over the top. I don't see to many buying it.
leahcim1973 Agreed!! I can buy an airplane cheaper than this!!
Price is cracked out.
Wow, building set of the UL airplane without engine cost 1/4 price... But still, if i could pack it into sth. like VW transporter, Ford transit or similar cars with my skis or fins on the summer/winter holiday and use it during relaxing days it would be awesome...same as my girlfriend would start me up with car on the field behind my house and i could use it more times in year than regular plane, grounded on the airfield not too close my living place....
Sat here thinking I have a few hundred bucks why not see. Never mind about that now
Fuck, I can make my own out of plywood blyat !
Сколько поколений предков мечтали о таком
"What are you wearing?"
"A glider"
Just flew in from Miami and boy are my leggs tired!
It just looks like a plane with mans legs
I'm trying to figure out why he needs a helmet -- the plane is his helmet
Gee, I remember when hang gliding was just a bed sheet stretched over a fishing pole frame and you launched into the elements bare-naked with a rope tied around your waist.. My how much they've improved.
An aircraft that you wear? Definitely unique.
With two leaf blowers on each wing it can be transformed to a jet man...
One day this device will fit inside a coffee cup and assemble itself in seconds, around the user, by thought alone. Crazy right? So is the device I'm typing this on to literally everyone born 50 years ago. Don't underestimate technology.
well now we have a better understanding of the limits of science, they didnt have that 50 years ago.
The perfect mix between Flintstones and Jetsons
this is a sport just like golf. You have a lot of fun with it.
When u cant afford landing gear, but you have free feet
*Stonks* ⬆️
Vedio quality is awesome
@Predatorocity Gaming rude
Every dream I've ever had where I fly, has just been explained to me.
imagine you can get into your plane every morning and poop down in the air through the "seat" opening. Pure freedom!
"Fahwerk eingefahren und verriegelt"
"gear up and locked"
Flintstones in the air!
Fred flintstone would be proud
Weightlifter : So bro what can you squat?
Me: oh yanno , a plane
0:26 there is a dent appears on the right side when pilot is running
That is because these planes can't be made of metal they have to be made by a frame with fabric over it. This makes the plane lighter.
Happen when another plane "ran" into him.
The Wright Brothers would have paid a fortune to get their hands on such "primitive" gliders.
they wouldnt have paid they would rip eachother off like happened to Tesla. Same today. I submitted a idea to help the US economy and cut down shipping costs but somehow it was turned into the stupid hyperloop idea and stolen from me. My idea was to build a tunnel from CA to China and use sea water as a way to power it. It would save trillion in shipping cost and clear the oceans ,,,I also invented the pre paid credit card.. Never saw a dime... Now I just keep my ideas to myself,,,,
@@nicparker3809 I mean hey, do you have any mid scale ideas? Technological ones that id
Nic Parker lmao lol lol good
Most logical configuration I've seen so far.
One of the safest ways to fly. No flipping airplane, etc, easy stall recovery if done right. Yeah!!
"Bro watch yo jet. WATCH YO JET"
woow
After all of designing this craft, I wonder why they did not just add long retractable landing gear?
It would add extra weight, unneeded complexity and unreliability, and most likely a huge markup in the price.
@@Lanzbik At the price they are asking, it should include landing gear like a glider. And lights.
this thing needs a top gear episode
“dude come over”
“I can’t I’m on a hike”
“they ordered raisin canes”
0:25
Well, i can die now, Seen "Flintstones Plane for real" Now I can RIP
👍👍👍Unglaublich!
the start is hilarious with how it looks like the plane has legs!
Using his feet to fly this is quite similar to when Fred Flinstones was moving his car, should've shouted yabadabadoo whilst taking off.
For some reason, I thought of the Flintstones.
У нас так обычно алконафты летают - шары залют себе и летят без всяких крыльев.
Вот у русских все про водку, что за нация?
Awesome technology though very expensive. In comparison I could have bought ~1200 of my first original gliders. As a poor engineering student, my first Rigallo, (second hand 1978) cost $57 my second Tornado, $85 then a German Superwing, $95. Yes that was ages ago but enjoyed every minute of it. Survived 3 'plane' crashes, all part of awesome fun. Guys (and girls) live flat out!
Never seen these before. Thanks for posting.
прикольный планер какой ! :)) с удовольствием бы приобрел такой... интересно сколько весит он? и кстати смеялся как забавно "шасси убирает".. :)))
"So what do you wanna be when ypu grow up?",
"A plane!"
Judging by the comments I seem to be the only one who think this is awesome!
È un delle cose più fighe che abbia mai visto. Strepitoso! 😍😘
know just add like four micro jet engines feul tank and hes good
First you have to carry it then it will carry you later on.
Early 1945 at a flugplatz near Berlin... Gruppen Obest Kruger speaks: There are no more Me-109s or FW-190s left to defend the Riech. Now you new pilots will intercept the swarms of B-17s und B-24s with Der Volks-Birdie. Good hunting!
Brought a smile to my face.
AWESOME
FLY LIKE A BIRD
There are 80 old guys who are very mad Right now.
No one's going to get this joke.
Esses guys são crazy! Muito good de se see, but fazer é another coisa.
Kkkkkk isso é true mas i dont tem courage to fazer isso
That's a pretty cool airplane cosplay.
Man O'man that is totally awesome. How much does it weigh???
The possibilities are endless....
I don't know much ,but it seems to beat hang gliding all to pieces....
I wonder where the exhaust comes out from, 😂
New? Fred Flintstone flew this Millions of years ago ; )
Ripcord
Fred Flintstone? You mean Icarus?
I liked this idea as a new sport.
Crush: Come over
Me: I cant, you live far away and all airports are closed because of Covid-19
Crush: My parent arent home
Me:
That's way too expensive, the price is unjustifiable.
Xelbiuj unless you have the cash and take good care of it like you would a car.
Xelbiuj How much does it cost?
Isenb32 Base model is ~$83k
Xelbiuj if this is your hobby and you are serious about it, take care of the vehicle, and have the money, seems okay to me. most of that price is the crazy composites going on, they ain't cheap.
+Xelbiuj Anything that has to do with flying is expensive....From RC planes to skydiving to recreational flying to ATP... Flying is for the rich or those willing to struggle til they get there... Since I didn't want to struggle & I'm not rich, I'll stick to maintaining my beloved A320's.. A hangar pilot, that's as close as I'll get to flying them...lol
So there is a button inside when you press that the legs retract instead of landing gears😂👌👌
Amazing composite Job. Although can you imagine having to run with esentially a full grown man on your back and reach take of speed :D
Because this relates to everything in my CZcams feed.... said no one ever
Fred Flintstone plane
02:02 that thing can't be pleasant to fly..
ohh my balls
pavingos at 2:17
OhOohHhh my bAlls
Amazing creation and thank you for sharing the video. Highly appreciate.
As a Sailplane pilot.. Pretty nice! As a 68 year old... Pretty heavy.
Here me out, was anyone reminded of Wii sport resort while watching this
I loved that game, the plane game was my favorite.
Can I ask the price of this device and where it is sold?
$79,000 to $105,000 USD
OZAN KOÇAK same
You can literally go out and buy a brand new actual plane for that much
The f so expensive.. you could build yourself it doesnt have motor..seems simple enough
Brett Stevens you could buy a small fleet of used Cessna 172's for as much as this thing.
The Flintstones have come a long way...
I just got rickrolled , stick bugged and distracted lol
