Flying a real airplane over the water, there isnt much depth perception, you are taught to setup a glide slope then watch the shoreline. Having instruments would be huge.

+1 Airsoft Dogfight 11/10 would watch There are so many ways you could do it. So many different styles of planes to choose from. If you wanted to be really extra you could start with bi-planes, then do WW2 planes, then use EDF's to simulate jets. This would be peak FliteTest.

@hooptydoo417 4 года назад

I’ve been watching this channel for years, and this may have been the first time my vertigo was triggered. It happened right after Alex asked about getting some altitude. Something about being that high over the water made the butterflies come alive. But it was beautiful up there.

@jjs3287 3 года назад

Beautiful looking backwards and seeing all three aircraft strung out in a row over that tranquil lake. This is the kind of thing that makes RC flying so priceless. The gods cannot take away the time one spends RC flying.

@zombie445hehe 4 года назад

As a possible project you guys can keep in the back of your head, you could look at creating an RC motor warplane, with a larger battery capacity and putting a bit less oomf on the motors so the plane performance becomes smoother with the sluggishness ; climbing time, turning etc. An RC dogfight with planes like these will be absolutely rad! The behavior will be graceful enough to make targeting your guys' planes easy without the frustration of chasing nimble and speedy airplanes with a camera and a condensed screen

@willemgrant735 4 года назад

And put airsoft on those planes!

@geoffquickfall 4 года назад

Excellent and so much fun. Flew float planes for a living back in the 70s and 80s (C185f, DHC2 and 3s). Glassy water was the bane. Set up 200fpm down and hope your lake was long enough!

@rmdcade1717 4 года назад

Things I love about this episode: - Anders is back in front of the camera! - The 360 shots just keep getting better and better. Much nicer than using a standard action cam. (I mean, look at the smooth 360 shots in the "you guys want to go high altitude?" section versus the jello in the quad's GoPro while Alex is punching to the moon.) - Great music choices. - Alex with that save after tapping Anders's wing :) - Josh's field test of the water resistance of the FPV pod.

@thesoupin8or673 4 года назад

Would love to see you guys build an RC boat to rescue the planes with! Also I loved the over-the-water content, I would love to see more of that. Great job!

@JPspinFPV Год назад

I grew up in a hanger in Everett Washington where we were restoring a Grumman Widgeon, along with a handful of other fantastic aircraft. It's really nice to see these models available, as well as the work being put in to make them work well.

@rowanalbright7711 4 года назад

I got a challenge for you: See how many motors you can stick on an rc airplane (maybe a simple cub? doesn't really matter) and keep it flying.

Two words, 1. Totally, 2. Awesome. This will most likely be one of my next planes,a Catalina, and/or a canadair CL415.

@larrycarmody8325 3 года назад

I have over 5k hours in a real Widgen & if your landing on glassy water, Land close to the shore if possible, that's horizontal to the shore. It helps to see how high you are to the water.

@welshpete12 4 года назад

I never flew float planes , but spoke to pilots that have . This business with depth perception on take off and landing, is something they have a problem too. On take off , if the water is very smooth , like a mirror. A trick that they do. Is taxi round, to make a little wave on the water . It helped on take off . to judge distance .

Any float pilot will tell you it is that beautiful glassy water that is the real killer. Ideally land parallel a shore line or approach by an island or buoy or even a floating stick to lend some depth perception to the water. Then trim nose up and milk her in with power! Beauty vid.

@@FliteTest Rules and Safety EdgeWater Airpark Safety Code Outdoor First Person View operations When flying outdoors, you must keep your model aircraft within the distance limitation of your visual line of sight. Long-range FPV is not permitted. If wearing video goggles (or similar devices that block your view of the surrounding airspace) when flying outdoors, you must have another person act as a spotter to monitor the airspace for any manned air traffic and notify you about how to not interfere with and give way to any manned aircraft. However, if you keep your model aircraft’s flight below the top of nearby buildings, structures, or trees, or to very low altitudes such as a model aircraft race course, you are not required to have a spotter to monitor the airspace. Flight through obstacle-filled environments (such as forests) while wearing goggles is permitted without a spotter provided that you ensure in advance that the location is clear of people. www.edgewaterairpark.com/rules-and-safety/

Awesome vid guys. So glad to get my Widgeon after the release wait. Set everything up, did Spektrum with Safe during the wait for Aura info. Did intermediate mode and she went straight up from the runway and then straight down. Maiden and cracked the hull and split the foam. Wanted a Goose, waited all of this time for the Widgeon, and can't get parts. Normal laugh when I crash, but not this time. Video came out while I was collecting pieces.
