    Give the Cessna a full emergency parachute system to prevent another crash like last time.

    How about a video describing how Bob fixed the plane? it might help some newer people who have a damaged plane in the basement, they may not know how easy it is to repair it and how well they fly after a repair. keep up the great videos.

    Rebuild some of the older planes in the bone yard and have some give away contests. Have everyone sign the plane. And then have a contest to name the plane, an have the whorst name win!. Lol . Or something like that. Keep up the good work. Later. ✌

    @timstockton14 Před 6 lety +1

    To keep your hands warmer and able to feel your fingers, try using glove liners. You can pick them up at Academy Sports. I used to use them when I did photojournalism work and they allow you to still feel the controls and keep you warm at the same time. You guys are doing a great job, keep it up!

    Fantastic fellas, Crashed mine due to loss of signal & all fixed except for the nose wheel assembly which was bent. Sadly the company here in Australia do not have parts available since the release. So it is great having Eflight aircraft but virtually nil parts in this country. Horizon Hobby are excellent in the USA...it's the postage that is the problem from there. Have a wonderful, blessed Christmas FlightTest

    @tbirdracefan Před 6 lety +3

    I remember when they gave one of the Cessna's to Bob. Mid-air takes out both of them, Now Bob is able to get one fixed and has to spectate as every one else takes turn flying (and crashing)it. Makes me feel bad for Bob especially with all the laughing about crashing it.

    • @FliteTest
      @FliteTest  Před 6 lety +3

      tbirdracefan we gave Bob the Flex innovation Cessna 170 as it was the same plane that his family had when he was growing up.. He still flies it to this day.. We asked Bob if he wanted to fly this 150 and he didn't want to due to the small space. He's smarter than us:) - Alex

    Y'all should buy the softest foam you can find, and use the F-105 and F-8 in an EDF dartboard challenge!
    Reinforce the noses, set up a vertical wall of foam with a bullseye, and use the fighters as your darts!

  • @titogilbert2
    @titogilbert2 Před 6 lety +1

    Love the videos! An idea for an experiment, try to run your aircraft on one of those 20 volt Li-ion batteries from a drill. Some have a 5 amp hour capacity. Bet you could get some great flight time out of that!

    Enjoyed this Vlog. I am getting really impressed with your chase footage. I know it is partly editing but your selection of shots and the skill demonstrated by the chase pilot is impressive. The shots selected are getting more and more theatrical in nature. Good on you guys.

    • @youmakeitreal

    @markcnc Před 6 lety

    Love the drone footage at the beginning, Kudos to the flyer(s) and editor.
    and yeah, OF COURSE THAT WAS A BAD IDEA!!!! if you can just slide the wheel back on the nose gear ... stay with me now ... you can just slide it off ... thanks for the chuckle anyway.

    You need a wind sock on the pole next to to path. That would be SO COOL!

  • @rccrazy7495
    @rccrazy7495 Před 6 lety +1

    Show how you can reinforce the front strut and put in a hardened metal rod . Because it bent after a half dozen landings in the mowed glass field where I fly,and there's a lot of complaints on the reviews. that's the "weakest link" I love my cz150 but now afraid to fly it. Last time it bent the plane flipped and I had to replace the fuselage it broke the vertical stabilizer which on this unit is part of it's fuselage.

  • @taltruda

    My idea for the Cessna, glue the wings together like a P-38 but call it a P-150. Twin engine, twin boom fuselages

  • @JorgeTarafa

    Add a scale FPV head tracking setup.

  • @VoluntaryPlanet
    @VoluntaryPlanet Před 6 lety +4

    Make the Cessnas into gunships that can shoot air soft bb’s and bottle rockets with a slaved GoPros for fpv. Or just make an AC-130 that can do that from scratch.

  • @EnderMalcolm
    @EnderMalcolm Před 6 lety

    Test a parachute recovery system with the Cessna. Put a model rocket parachute or something like that, maybe multiple, one on the tail and two on the wings or something. Take the plane up, put it in a spin, and see if the parachutes will save it. I'd test it first with a plane you don't care about as much, because stuff can always go wrong. Use a servo to hold down the chute(s) until they are needed. If it works well, maybe you could make an attachment for your DIY kits, for people who are just starting, and are not comfortable with flying. It would be an extra backup if you got into a bad spot.

  • @PeterPiccolo
    @PeterPiccolo Před 5 lety

    u should def try towing a banner with that bad boy!! u can make a much larger sign.. and if u cut moon slice like circles all thru the banner it will help it stay nice and open and keep the banner fully flagged out by creating a little drag from the banner while up in the air... as long as the plane has enough power it would be an awesome and fun way to potentially advertise for real with a large rc plane instead of that tiny banner u made for a smaller plane in another of the flite test videos... let me know what u think... u could potentially bring the plane to a busy area and fly her around for clients that can pay for your flight services.. wont be a full size plane flying a banner for hours, but im sure there is a market for that and you will surely get alot of attention... lemme kno if u would want to attempt doing that!! i kno if would love to see it..

  • @tomwoodtv8904
    @tomwoodtv8904 Před 6 lety

    How's about using the Cessna to see if those of us that can't afford a long range FPV plane can use it as both aka, kit it out with eagle tree vector, dragon link etc load it up with batteries, or even better show us how to use 18650 batts as flight packs as they're a lot lighter, and do a long range super stable carbon z mile cruncher?....

  • @STG3Stang
    @STG3Stang Před 6 lety

    He guys, how about converting the busted Carbon Cessna 150 to a gasoline burner. Big, beautiful, fun, wide envelope, and you add economy and long duration flights. Its only weakness is the $100 a pop for one flight batteries. Want 3 flights a day you need $300 + in batteries or $3 worth of gas. I know we would all love it!
