Been into motorcycles most my life…..love the saying “if Harley made a plane would you fly it”…….well, if Yamaha made one I would definitely fly it!! Nice nice build. Congrats!

The whole reason why this aircraft performs as well as it does it because of its radical engine, but Patey likes traditional engines.

It's really cool to see the different approaches and trade offs. I know it would be more work, but could he get a lighter set up that is still balanced by extending the rear airframe to effectively extend the tail back?

why don't you guys have drag parachutes to pop out the tail on a hot landing? Drag strip style. strait out the tail. call it the e-brake. maybe make a cut-able line, and install multiple chutes.

@deanmiles3505 Год назад

Hi Trent, That video had nice content. I have always liked the older cowl design, but it wasn't quite centered in the cowl. Maybe he can try moving his battery aft if he hasn't done so already? I hate the idea of adding weight if it can be avoided. The wider gear is definitely a good idea. The ground loop monster just loves narrow gear lol. The aviation community just keeps getting more advanced with powerful motors and great electronics. I just wish Rotax would bring back the 503 for the light sport aircraft. Take care, Be safe.

Is that the R1 engine? Four valves or five? How much is the fuel injection system? Would it work on an older Genisis engine??? Thanks Walker

@willburr13 Год назад

The RX1 engine that he mentioned is the one that is based off of the R1 engine. The apex engine I think was based of that architecture, but was lightened up a bit and of course had fuel injection.

@portnuefflyer Год назад

I put 40 hours on a Magnum that I built for a guy with more money than time. 0-320 powered, it took off short, climbed and cruised great, BUT it was too heavy with not enough wing area to land slow and short.

@jerrymartens7253 Год назад

I love seeing these types of builds but I personally would not want to cruise at 8500rpm. Just wouldn’t feel right

@PistonAvatarGuy Год назад

BD Turnkey Engines ... I can't post the link.

@Kalimerakis Год назад

VGs on the window probably make sense, or at least won't hurt In the situation where the wings aren't stalled because of the VGs, the top of the fuselage would be, creating a pocket of high-pressure turbulent air pushing the laminar flow of the wings outward. There would also be an outwashing vortex on either side. But then again who knows what the propwash does to the area and how big any effect would be after all. Anyway, talking about aerodynamics without testing is fun but pointless.

@ethanlegrand33 Год назад

How much is the Apex engine? I feel like it’s not that much different than buying a Rotax.

@ronvachon1434 Год назад

Could you build a kit kitfox with a Kubota diesel?

@gregwatruba4541 Год назад

Sure, if you want to plow a field instead of flying. Diesel engines are too heavy.

@TheOwenMajor Год назад

To elaborate a bit on what Greg said, the reason why piston diesel engines are difficult to make work is because diesel needs high compression to ignite. This means the engines need to be beefy. And just for reference, a 110HP Kubota engine weighs about 700 lbs.

@markcleveland3790 Год назад

Instead of just adding ballast in the tail, why not transfer the fuel tank to the tail? Would save weight and allow for increased breaking during short landing events as having the tank lower would help move the fulcrum point rearward and reduce the tipping point lower.

@PistonAvatarGuy Год назад

Because the fuel tank isn't always full.

@tedcarl5382 Год назад

20 pounds in the tail is a considerable moment arm. Adding a secondary tank would cause balance to change considerably as it draws down. Plus, AV Gas is right about 7lbs/gallon so it would only increase range by little more than a quarter hour of flight, given their 5.5GPH burn.

@markcleveland3790 Год назад

@@PistonAvatarGuy true but isn’t reducing weight of fuel and the tank from forward of CG accounted for to offset the extended weight forward of CG by moving it rearward?
