As flite test grows so do the projects. This B17 is going to be the coolest thing ever from Flite Test 10 year subscriber here and I've seen it all. 👍👍😎✌👊

You know, with one of your big B-17 models, you should make a BF-109 model of the same scale, and do an RC reenactment of the flight when Franz Stigler escorted the severely damaged B-17 piloted by Lt. Charlie Brown, back to safety. (An extremely great true story from WWII...)

I was watching tons of videos out of the blue on B 17 bombers and I stumbled on to the other video where you shot apples at it back in september. At the end you said at 2 mil you were gonna do it again with lasers. I looked down at the sub count and saw 2 mil. I came to the channel and see this video posted 6 hours ago. The world works in mysterious ways. New Sub

@thisisaduck 2 года назад

Just an idea. I’m not sure if it even possible but with the laser tag stuff, maybe have several places to be hit and let’s say it’s hit on the left side, the left motor or aileron will stop working.

@GregoryC21 2 года назад

When it gets hit in laser tag, a panel should fly off from one of the wings or vertical stabilizer. You’d only need a tiny servo for each panel. Every hit would be signaled by a different panel being “shot off”.

@mikehipperson 2 года назад

I don't know about model flying rules in the US but here in the UK 20ft is the absolute limit for the wingspan of a model, anything over is considered as a full blown aircraft and is subject to CAA (FAA equivalent) regulations such as wing loading, annual safety checks etc. So it may be time to get Peter Shripol back to actually fly IN IT as pilot, he's small enough and light enough to do it!

@TimMcClure 2 года назад

Love it, guys! The start-to-finish single project videos were fun, but for bigger stuff like this B-17 it's super cool to get more in-depth on a lot of the engineering and construction, and the random interjections... flying through the door, talking about tinywhoop plans - it feels like a fly-on-the-wall sort of perspective on what your day to day is like, and as you go bigger and better on projects like these I think that'll work really well! It's also a nice homage back to the vlog days... great stuff guys, looking forward to this year.
