    I was fortunate enough to see Sean D.Tucker in his last Oshkosh display. I also saw him at the Rockford Air Show back in the early '90s. Flew amazing! And that's a Challenger III which is now in the Smithsonian. What a tribute!

    I watched Sean Tucker perform his routine in his Modified Pitts way back in the late 80s. Been my favorite sport acrobatic machine ever since. An absolutely gorgeous model you have here. The sound of that engine is fantastic as well!!

    • @TheJustinJ
      @TheJustinJ Před 10 měsíci

      The late '80s he had a modified pitts, not the challenger III. If you never saw him circa 2005-2010 then you don't known what you're missing.
      I watched him HOVER on his prop at full power, while moving backwards down the runway as the breeze he was facing into blew him backwards in front of the crowd, a couple hundred feet off the runway. This after he entered from stage left and 5,000 feet in a tumbling gyro maneuver on a 45-downline and did not break out of the tumble until below 500'. It was probably 20+ negative G gyrations... Nobody will ever put on a high energy biplane show like that ever again.
      Rob Holland in the MX2-RH is even more brilliant, especially in the hovers and tumbles. But a monoplane lacks the raw aggression of the Challenger III.

    Epic engine! 3 or 6 cylinder 4-strokes are just the thing for Mustangs, Spitfires, BF109s, and other V-12 warbirds. The sound they make is beautiful.
    What a great time for RC aircraft. There are some awesome engines being made that are the perfect cure for Flying Weedwhacker Syndrome. Yes, I understand that such jewel-like engines come at a jewelry-like price, but if I was going to invest the time and money in a beautiful large scale aircraft, I'd want to do it justice with an engine worthy of it.
    That being said, I love seeing any good plane take to the air and be flown well, regardless of the size of the owner's budget. Thanks for another excellent video, and happy flying to all!

      @ArneChristianRosenfeldt Před 11 měsíci

      I would love to see the modular design, but with DOHC and HEMI. The cams can freely move along the axis as can the cylindrical parts. So heat extension between the bays is no problem. HEMI wants its valves be pushed from the outside and hence it does not work too well with SOHC like in those cheap inline-4 or inline-3 car engines. And then swap it into a bug. The spacing in an air cooled engine lets us access spark plugs easily. Also we don't spill oil all over us when the valve covers for intake and exhaust are separate ( motor-bike like ). Air cooled would also work with two intake valves. This would allow us to center the spark plug for easy access. Two exhaust valves would need liquid cooling. We cannot use conical cams due to the heat expansion. Thus pancake combustion chamber is impossible. I mean, maybe revert to pushrods for the intakes? I would love to see a rocker arm driven by the cam which uses two short pull-rods to pull down a pair of arms ( left and right ) for the valves. Spheres on a ring. Not really a rod. Where was I?
      So I want U joints to rotate the axis. The Cam profile pre-compensates for this. There is only little movement in the joint, so not much friction or heat. As an option. Of course just going 4-valve is the easier way to place the single plug ( not man carrying ) where it belongs, but this would be an exclusive feature. As an option on a base engine with 2 valves. Ah, I see, still more friction on the rocker arms. Could as well go SOHC: Directly drive the exhaust valve, and use short push rods for the the two intakes. I think that I'vs seen a prototype for the Corvette or so.
      Maybe the outer arms can sit on the main arm ( tolerances -- not good ), and there is only a thin shaft which extends from the U-joint and dictates the direction only, but not the (vertical for upright view of a single cylinder ) location. Or let the center arm sit on the outer arms. I guess a little off-center spark has far less implications.

    Dang Ali gets to fly so many cool planes I'm honestly jealous. But I've seen the real one fly and this honestly looks very close to it in the air. The engine sounds nice too. For those of you wondering what's meant by it needing a bigger prop, a bigger prop would create a better sound since the air would get whipped around more at the tips. So a bigger prop would make it sound more like a real plane.
