This is a video of Red Bull stunt pilot Dario Costa performing a touch-and-go landing on a train moving at 75MPH. That’s impressive. Way more impressive than just crashing the plane into the side of the train, which is what I would have done, all the money from the bank
This is a video of maker of things Peter Sripol constructing and attempting to fly a single-person plane made almost entirely out of cardboard, hot glue, and tape. The plane is powered by brushless motors but has to be towed behind a car to take off. But does it fly?
Because VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) is going to be paramount in the near future when earth’s surface is entirely lava, Youtuber Michael Rechtin decided to try constructing two different versions of R/C plane launchers that require no runway or hand launching. First he creates a stomp rocket style launcher,
In damn that’s huge but still much smaller than the real thing news, this is a video of Youtuber Ramy RC flying an absolutely massive model airplane version of a Boeing 777X. The incredibly realistic replica measures 10 meters (33-feet) long and has tons of features of the actual plane.
This is a video of airplane mechanic Max discussing what is and isn’t an airplane window, including a synopsis of ‘The Window On The West’, chapter 5 from the second book of The Two Towers in the Lord of The Rings series. Was it necessary to bring Tolkien into a
This is a video of NASA’s giant Super Guppy turboprop plane landing in Huntsville, Alabama (where I grew up), carrying the heat shield for the Artemis I Orion spacecraft. The massive, bulbous plane features a cargo area measuring 25′ x 25′ x 110′, with the entire plane hinging open behind
This is a video of pilot and former Australian Bachelor Jimmy Nicholson on his honeymoon and experiencing some intense turbulence while riding in the back of a plane with his wife Holly Kingston (who he picked on the show, and married two years later). Wait — but if you’re back
17 months of design and experimentation in the making, this is a video of Youtuber Think Flight setting the world record for largest rubber band powered airplane, with a 16-foot wingspan flying machine. That’s cool, all my rubber band airplanes always ended up on the roof and me crying about
