I think they throw a 360° camera after the plane to capture some in-flight shots. Completely harmless, but paper will still be punctured by a camera stick.

@clayre839 2 месяца назад

The funny thing is they told you to stay on the back because they assumed it would nosedive but if you trusted the simulation and your math and kept your center of gravity further forward on it you probably would have gotten even more distance

Steel guitar strings work to cut foam. Hook it up to a Lionel train transformer, use some PVC pipe for a frame and you're in business.

several years ago I'd actually have some of that funky heating wire in my room....i had an old vape my friend gave me and it used tiny coils made from that, they didn't last forever so i had to remake my own a few times,weird to work with especially when shaping it.

@macD723 10 дней назад

Very impressive. I worked on aircraft, both fixed wing and helicopters for 15 years as a mechanic and a structural fabricator. I really didn't think it was going to fly that far. If I were on the team, with some modifications, it would have flown farther. I could tell from the start, where you sat, your center of gravity was too far back. But, the plane stayed flat! Good try guys!

@Weisz 10 дней назад

Thanks dude! If the guy hadn’t said anything, I would have sat about 40% from the back to front, that way the plane would still stay parallel to the water until the cart was mostly off the edge. That’s why I ended up going with “sit on the back”, because my options were: do that and try to walk forward & shift weight, or sit on the front and nosedive/clip the platform for sure. Glad you enjoyed this one!

If you're ever in a pinch for foam cutting wire again I've found that the smallest string for an electric guitar works well. Don't ask how I know that I spend lots of time finding alternatives for things such as that.

@TylerNally Месяц назад

Gee whiz. Had you rode farther forward, the aircrafts center of gravity would have had forward momentum. Where you rode it, it was drag holding it back from forward motion....after you ran out of velocity...it sank. More level == longer flight.
