Lancair IV-P Takeoff 

Thanks, the trolley is always nice to see during the summer.

This little one does have quite interesting gear, this was my first catch of one of these as well. Thanks a lot!

On Vimeo they have a full flight on a go pro from u under the plane.

@@identitywitheld007 yup. I shot that on the way back from Burningman. ;) it was over yellowstone

Thanks very much!

Thanks very much!

Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!

AND Ive subsrubed and activated THE Bell

@@caseyjrthehybridengine3444 Thanks for that, I really appreciate the support!

No props KEEP THE 4K GOING MATE

I bet these are exciting to fly, must make the trip a lot of fun!

Indeed for a 300 knot piston single :)

My dad has one, interesting landing a plane that size at 100kts

cool

This little one was nice to see!

Thanks! It's interesting gear this one has.

I totally agree, the gear on this type does look pretty spindly while on the ground. Looks great when the gear is up though :-) Thanks Steve!

Proper lancair takeoffs leave the weight on the wheels so they don't bounce and have as much of a "spindly" look, at least on takeoff.

Thanks, this was my first time seeing one of these.

Thanks!

Thanks!

I bet they are a lot of fun to fly, one great looking aircraft. Haha I think I'd choose a house myself though :-)

If you can afford the plane..you've probably got the house and cottage

@@TheHDAviation I wouldn’t. I’d live in an apartment and fly every day

This one was definitely cool to see, looks like a very sporty ride!

It’s sure does 😉

I also made a an Atlantic City international spotting video! We saw F-16’s and a C-130!!

Check that out!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks Matt!

That must have been fun to fly this aircraft in Flight Sim, they look like they'd be pretty speedy and exciting. I hope you get to fly one some day!

Wanna have a ride in it?

These definitely do have interesting gear, the aircraft looks much better once it is in flight.

@@TheHDAviation not an uglier than a C-210, but to me it look perhaps over loaded as it didn't want to climb after rotation, or does it have a large negative lift out of the elevator during high rates of change?

Unfortunately I've never seen a Lancair Columbia 400, I'd like to catch one in the future though. Just searched the Mako, that's one strange looking design in-flight!

Thanks! Yup, this is the first one I've seen. Great looking little aircraft, hope you fly in one soon!

I think it was back in the day. Now it is just run by a group of volunteers and anyone can go for a ride on it during the summer.

Thanks!

335 miles per hour

Cruise airspeed is around 180 KTS. True airspeed at altitude I typically see around 220 KTS. The Load does not play a role with speed. If anything the plane is much more stable when she's close to gross.

@@cschieweck The IVP is supposed to be able to do 290kts. Maybe FL260. how high do you fly?

@@DanFrederiksen On Average I fly around FL220. Any more than that and the engine gets pretty twitchy. 290 KTS Ground speed? Maybe yeah. Fastest I've done is around 320 GND speed. But if we're talking air speed, it's 180kts. Indicated air speed. Regardless of Altitude.

@@cschieweck I meant TAS. IAS is a somewhat archaic measure.

Very cool. I'm really glad I got to catch your great looking aircraft at CZNL!

It does look like it took a little dip as the flaps were retracted.

@@TheHDAviation Yeah I believe that day it was pretty hot and humid, I probably wanted to gain a little airspeed before pulling out to keep the engine coolling in check.

How high should one fly immediately after take off?

@@cschieweck Significantly steeper than glide ratio back. one can also kink to the side immediately on take off for a natural loop back. The impossible turn is not.

@@DanFrederiksen Interesting. I'm not sure what you mean by a natural loopback, or kinking to the side after takeoff. Takeoffs are typically done straight in order to maintain maximum climb performance, any sort of bank angle decreases this ratio. For this particular takeoff, there is a significant climbout required about a mile out, I released a little pressure on the stick after the initial climbout in order to bank more speed from about 100 KTS to around 150. The Lancair does not fly slowly very well and gets hot quickly at slow speeds at high power settings. It also takes a lot longer and chews up more distance to build up speed in the climb esp if you are climbing out at VX. There was plenty of room to build up airspeed here which allows me to climb out at a suitable speed.

@@cschieweck if you fly straight and have to return to the runway shortly after take off due to engine failure you have to turn much more than 180 degrees but if you go to the side a bit right after take off then you are more aligned with the runway when you turn back. But never stall. Stall is very bad.
