So the main thing I take away from this episode is that if you see David and he says something is a 'Little bit Weird' .. You should probably stand back or maybe run the other direction.
I met David and had a few conversions with him at #flitefest 2016 at the rotor riot tent. I definitely got the impression 'thinking outside the box' applied mainly because the box exploded, burst into flames or both with reference to him. LOL
Well you seemed to lile my suggestions last time. So here's a new list. A birthday cake. Another Turkey ...round 2 without the sheath. An RC plane from behind (careful with remote trigger). Dry Ice in a mug filled with water. Turn some jeans into shorts. Make a fruit/vegetable salad. Open an envelope. Chainmail armour. Also why not rocket launch an object into a stationary knife?
If you add a counterweight to the bottom of the sled the knife will be more balanced after exiting the track. It would be cool to drop things at the end of the sled and cut them mid air. It would require a mechanism and some maths to get the timing right but I think it would look great in slow mo.
Det är ju otroligt. Hade jag varit med hade jag haft långbyxor nerstoppade i strumporna och jag hade ändå åkt på borrelia när jag klev ur bilen... Kändis var väl att ta i.
Please do a rocket knife vs rocket knife video at some point. It doesn't have to be a knife on the end but have the sleds collide with eachother in the middle
Hard drives Like Taofledermaus, It might also break a knife. You have to do a Hobby King Bixler but in reverse....Rocket on the Bixler rocketing into your sword(s) via FPV.
Use a mirror and aim the slow motion camera down the track so we can see the knife coming right at the camera....through the mirror. Or get a small engine (nitro engine would be cool or a weed eater engine would be even better) and rocket knife it while running......that would be awesome!
I love that you have a fascinated female join ya in the vids from time to time. I am lucky that my sweetie is excited about my hobby too....but not like they are about yours. Nice Dave & Henrick. Family time awesomeness. See you in the sky! STONEWULFF FPV
does it make anyone else nervous how david keeps leaning over the knife and swinging his head around the knife while it is on the rail? please be careful around that thing!!!!!
logistically, that's not going to happen. TWO knives with TWO rockets attached to TWO sleds? Not to mention that one sled and rocket knife will have to be at a 90 degree angle to the other knife and sled.... way too over the top in my opinion. Besides, what are you expecting? One (or both) of the knives get cut in half of something? boring! Just keep cutting neat stuff like this David, and ignore the idiots that keep suggesting TWO knives, since the concept of something original is so foreign to them that they simply suggest the same thing over and over (and over... even being the SAME damn item to cut that DOES the cutting) again.
I still say, you need to angle the blade foreward, so it has a better "bite" ... and also the shock of impact reduces the probability of breakage I wish I could post images durnit
Mount a fan above the table,turn it on, and see if the knife hits a blade or misses! Try 2 blade verses 3,4 blade, and change the speed of fan, fast or slow, you get it. The slow mo would be great!
Rocket knife vs an impact explosive like Tannerite - if of course that's legal in Sverige (or David could backyard chemist a batch). Or simply vs end grain of a log of pine or birch - see if it will act like a log splitter on steroids.
i love yalls reaction as much as the action..yall are such a wonderful family of scientists.. please BE SAFE...doc johnny.. i almost cut off my finger last week just weeding the lawn and pulling sawgrass by hand.. BE CAREFUL
Rocket Knife vs Full LPG cylinder Rocket Knife vs Fish Tank Rocket Knife vs Fire Extinguisher Rocket Knife vs Inflated Car Tire (Will it cut or bounce?) Rocket Knife vs Bullet Proof Glass Rocket Knife vs Gun (Bring a gun to a knife fight?) Rocket Knife vs Running Lawnmower
Yeah, I knew they sometimes recorded several episodes per day. Of course they wouldn't release them all at the same time, that wouldn't give them the same ad-revenue they would get now (and they deserve every cent they get double). I love the concept and I am super stocked every time a video is released,. Frankly a few video's a week are move fun than 10 a day because it makes it more special. My previous response was just tongue in cheek. ;)
I think you need to repeat the Rocket Knife vs bowling ball, but make it Rocket **AXE** vs bowling ball. Checkout the episode of how ridiculous where they drop bowling ball onto an axe blade. They weld the axe blade onto a steel rod so that it is configured more like a chisel or spear, or lance. I want to see rocket axe built this way, with the rocket motor co-axial with the lance supporting the axe blade. Then the entire mass of the lance, rocket, and axe blade, and any residual rocket thrust will be in line with the point of impact. Something like rocket axe-blade-spear!
I was just thinking about FliteTest around 2014 and I was like “wonder what davids doing” *checks out rc explore, grew a beard, living in Sweden, putting rockets on knifes* You aint a “red cheeked baby” anymore.
