@@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesus Sweet lies, bro

I love his Tennessee accent too, it reminds me of my Papaw. He would have loved this crazy little plane since he was a pilot in WWII and always fueled my passion for aviation.

Yea

Fun how it's suggesting this to us a year later :D

Funny seeing you here, and funny that we all got recommended this at the same time lol

I guess smart people will have similar algorithm

Yes its very interesting, would love to see it on a larger scale, if thats something you could figure out with your dad. Your dad knows all about light weight materials and aircraft from the JWT project he worked on.

That was very cinematic indeed.

Fred is a genius and a gentleman. He's made a lot of great contributions to our hobby and was one of the early adopters of capacitor powered freeflight planes.

Very nice model. Well done. Build something else cool. I know you can.

Slow and steady, this reminds me of the penny planes!

He's a pretty good chemist, too. I went to grad school with Fred at Duke. @@joshuawfinn

@@jameslynch8738 what r the penny planes Could u expand a bit for us the ignorant ? Thank u

Also a very very old design.

None of which I can do when out drinking with friends.

I think the circling property is due to the propeller twisting the centerline so the stick is wanting to be on one side, then the weight of the stick pulling back down, so it has a natural curve to it’s flight.

@@StixFerryMan Yes, I was being facetious when I said it knew how to fly in circles. Every vehicle, when left to its own, will travel in circles.

​@@tyson9419🔴 What Is Islam? 🔴 Islam is not just another religion. 🔵 It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham. 🔴 Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God. 🔵 It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone. 🔴 It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine. 🌍 The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as: 📖 { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4) 📚 🔴 Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus. 🔵 Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him. More .....👇 🔴 THE RETURN OF JESUS

True !

i'm still waiting for younger folks to do something valuable.

haha get lifted bro

And people who build elevators… and escalators… and some other stuff.

Punny one

Man who stands on toilet, Is high on pot. -Confuscious

I saw this & my first thought was: i wonder if something like this could work with ionic thrust? *I'm sure the weight would be too much but i thought of your channel and all the awesome work you do with plasma & that ionic thrusters. Keep up the amazing work. It's always fascinating to see

​@benmcreynolds8581 Maybe if it used a lighter material than the wood structure, it might be able to fly with an ion engine.

@@TheBlargMarg Imagine using a plastic straw instead of that wood dowel.

@PlasmaChannel maybe micro light would be suitable ?

Or your Mom.

Well said ❤

Quote: "I have had a Simplex airfoil generator program on my computers for years that was written by Fred Rash. Smart man, and it's great to see him still doing neat stuff."

That is if he doesn't forget everything that you ask from him.

I bet he has some amazing machines!

@@SlickArmor What? Who are you and how did you get in here?

@@haywoodyoudome The dude said he wanted to learn things from him but every question the guy asked him he forgot. I came in through the door and no, I won't do you.

Good job& good gentleman ❤ Мужик сказал,мужик сделал😂

"the right amount of time on his hands" So... Have you implied hes a bum, laybone just because he's elderly?

I got a copy for Christmas back then. Very interesting and enjoyable times.

I had a 90s version of that as a kid. Loved that book.

Fred ascribes to the "K.I.S.S. principle."

Omg i had that! Have it i mean lol got it as an adult 😅

Me too! Wish I still had that book.

@@kennethkowalchuk7868 There are used editions available for under $10 if you search around.

The paper tube glider? I'd almost forgot about them. Thx. 👍

I thought it looked familiar

OS 61 VR is more my style but yeah I like nitro fumes too. We have to fly them open exhaust in freeflight so usually down a bit on power except for the Nelson 65s which were timed for open. Still a ton of fun.

Ewww I hope you were able to take care of that std never had one myself but i heard its the gift that keeps on giving😆

I also flew rental 1-26 in Fremont California in the early 70's. It was the most fun I could have with my clothes on! LOL Being only 22 or 23 I didn't have the money to pursue the sport but sure loved flying!

Thank you. I read your article with great pleasure. Amazing. Good luck, buddy

@@mixz9929 Well, I sold it in 1992, ha. But, boy it was fun and easy to fly.

It’s the only way to be ✌️☮️🖤

As people in the aircraft industry often say: “Once a renowned aeronautical aerodynamicist always a renowned aeronautical aerodynamicist!” 😁

There's a guy in my neighbourhood that zooms around on an electric bike selling little packets of stuff to extremely thin people with no teeth. I'm told that for 20 bucks you can experience what it is to fly while lying in a muddy puddle in a cemetery.

@@fluchterschoen Do NOT believe them! That isn't mud... but I got an extra packet:)

i've got a couple ideas for a backpack lightning rod that would use copper thread with either a small hot air balloon and rockets or some helium ballons and rockets.. the real trick will be to avoid winning a Darwin.. but yes it really is amazing.. was -2F for some days and i was a little warm without a fireplace.. while chatting and gaming and watching videos in real time with people across the globe.. there is an app called "Radio Garden" that lets you spin a globe to choose radio stations by locations.. radioactive steam powered vehicles aren't so far off, too.. good days :)

@@fluchterschoen which begs the question: Who is really flying, the guy on the electric bike, or the person lying in the puddle of mud at the cemetary.

​@@kengruz669were all flying through space ~30 km/s relative to our sun. Our galaxy is flying towards the great tractor at 1000km/s

He's a great guy!

Maybe the sound waves of the echoes had something to do with it.🤔

@@salguodrolyat2594🙄

😂😂

Super natural powered. The greenest energy possible.

Imagine what it can do with an innocent's tear....

yeah, the tube airfoil - I love that thing, make them all the time.

@@jpenneymrcoin6851 They also liked them because they could put them on their heads to wear as crowns. Plus, they were so unexpected - a circular paper airplane, when they'd only ever seen pointy, triangular or rectangular airplanes. Being circular made them more fun.

How can I find it?

@@synupps877 I found the design by accident online. You could try a search. I'll try to explain... Take one corner of a regular piece of paper and fold it to its opposite corner. Do not have the corners touch each other. You want them to look like when kids draw mountains - two peaks near each other. The whole thing should be roughly triangular. At the fold along the "bottom" of the nearly triangle you made, fold up the bottom about an inch to an inch and a half. Repeat this two more times. You should now have a strip sticking out on both sides of the bottom of the triangle. Holding those strips (which are actually flattened tubes), roll up the folded strip so that the ends touch, making a circle. Fit the end of one strip inside the other end. To make sure they stay attached, you can staple them. You then play with it so that the whole thing is in as close to a circle as you can get it. If you set it down on a table with the folded strip on the bottom, it might appear to be a crown, with two points up. To make it fly, you slide the space between the two points (the mountain peaks) into the area between your thumb and the rest of your hand, with your thumb inside the plane, with your fingers curled under the main body of the plane and the multi-folded strip pointed away from you. Now here's the tricky bit. You don't want to throw it hard, like you normally do with the triangular planes. You give it a kind of gentle throw-and-push. If you do it right, it doesn't really so much fly as it floats through the air. The first time I did it, it went all the way across my classroom, from my desk in the corner to the door at the other side. It's pretty cool. Even though I described it as best I can here, it's better if you find the directions with illustrations to show you how to do it properly. Do a search online. I hope this helped.

It is instructors, teachers, methodologists, whatever you like that fire up the imaginations of kids, who then go home and show their parents what they have learned. Be a parent who engages this process and not one to dismiss it. It means the World !

Less level.

I figured it was better to let him struggle than try helping and potentially break a wire. Everything on that plane is small and fragile. I knew he'd get it eventually as he's a very skilled flier, and I wanted to get all the commentary he was providing too.

@@joshuawfinn thank you, yep sorry understand now. Again great video, will subscribe

Age betrays us all.

Once you get older there a few things you still want to struggle with and people being patient and polite around you is them showing you that they can still be your friend.

Oh hi Norway, Germany here. How’s the weather up there? How is Auntie Denmark?

@@SaRkAsMuSoNe- Hi there, its snowing HEAVILY and its about -8 Celcius❄️🎅 (Western Norwegian coast) I think the Danes are more lucky with the weather than us🤗

@@Rolf-farmedfacts-supervisor glad to hear it. As I currently reside with England, I have not had the luck of snow right by the coast. Thank you for your reply, it put a smile on my face

@@SaRkAsMuSoNe- Have a great day🤗

@@Rolf-farmedfacts-supervisor and you Sir

Yeah it's cool as heck in the air. I just can't stop watching it.

Well, they do hit the walls sometimes, but we spend a lot of time trying to keep them away. Using a combination of wing warps, thrustline offsets, and rudder adjustments, the planes are all set up to make nice happy circles.
