Stay tuned and find out what happened!? Thanks For Watching!!!

And the cost for owning a heli just for some recreational hours a year is simply too high. Better the boys get their PPL for fixed-wing aircraft and get an old plane, or shared ownership, even a flying club may further enrich their lives without losing all the money and get some content for the crowd every now and then.

      Anything that flies is a rabbit hole in expenses. This was a grown up decision and I certainly applaud them for making it. Maybe they can find a nice shipping container for the new garage and clean out the parent's property. Transition is an important process with good parts to keep track of. I'm sure once the fence is up settling in can really begin.

      Totally agree with you! I don't regret one minute getting into the air but it is a lot more work than people seem to think. If anyone is considering getting into aviation, the very first thing they should do is to make sure they can pass the medical, and then from there, make sure they have the time and energy to go through the training. Taking breaks from flight training is not recommended, it'll cost a lot more in the end and it will potentially burn you out, and take the fun out of flying when you constantly need to back back and refresh the things you've learnt!
      So, I think this is a good decision to sell that heli and focus fully on the things they truly love doing! 😛

    I did a LS swap using PSI conversion harness. The way we wired the ignition was from the original fuse box in the car. Of course you don't have all that in this car. I can imagine you can run a wire from the battery to a switch and from there to PCM power on the PSI fuse box.

Having a pro technician go through the wiring harness frees you up to sort out other stuff. Either the Camaro suspension or switch to finishing the paint on the other project car.

It disturbs me to watch them tinkering with it when they have no idea what their doing, A simple wrong connection can instantly start a fire. and didn't he say the fuel tank fitting had a leak in it. They also need to fix that suspension clearance problem, because it ain't gonna work the way it is. Also, I think they made a wise decision to sell the Helicopter, These dudes like to clown around a lot and if they do that in the sky that could be a problem, Usually all Helicopter crashes are Fatal.

Although, I wish as role models they could speak a form of English that was something that more young American kids could emulate. Few kids out there can afford to buy whatever they want or eat store bought meals most days. I applaud their effort at becoming self made entrepreneurs, but they are not just your average kids. Enjoy watching them, just wish they had paid more attention in English class in High School.

    Hey Guys, I had a similar issue when I swapped my 73 Camaro with a supercharged LS. In my case the ignition was cutting power to the PCM when I was cranking with the key so what I did was I turned the key on to the run position and Jumped the starter using a small wire to test it out, that solved my issue and that meant that there's something funky going on with my ignition switch wiring which I still need to figure out. So, what I did for now is swapped in a 2021 Camaro Dash and wired a fused push button start.

Instead those 12v disappear while cranking so the PCM wouldn't receive its 12v hence wouldn't start at all, just crank. One thing to look at, keep up with the great content.

    Great decision on the chopper, guys! I used to work at a company that made helicopter components. An engineer there, who was an A-26 pilot in combat in WW II and who had his pilot's license, who designed helicopter components, refused to ever fly on one. He referred to them as "fatigue" machines.

    Hi Simeon, as an aviation professional, I agree with your sale of the R22. You have a new family to consider. I sold my motorcycles once my kids were born, and my job status was such that they were better to have me around rather than gone. I gave up a little fun, yet dangerous behavior to focus on what's important. Elizar learned that the one wheels were hazardous to the channel and his well being... kind of the same thing, although I feel some hand and knee protection could bring a level of confidence back to those awesome modes of transportation.

Motor or blower cuts lose, you lose brakes or sever a fuel line. Catastrophic failure. I can't believe he even put that fuel line there. He's thinking about getting it running and driving it instead of doing it right. Think it's gonna turn into there first bad car fire.

    Learning to fly is a great endeavor. It can allow you to go places you would not ordinarily go, because it would be beyond the distance/locality you would want to drive to.

In my opinion, that is what makes you guys who you are, and it does make some of us get out and work on projects we have that we have not touched in a while. I am working on my dads 97 Thunderbird, and his one of fifty special Pinto. And to my knowledge, it is the only one still out there that is original, but learning trying to find parts for it is getting very hard.
