360 VR! Big Creek to Johnson Creek Idaho RANS S-21

For the flight sim / virtual reality backcountry dreamers out there--this one's for you! Immersive scenic flight through the Salmon River / Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho. Or if you're planning on actually flying into Johnson Creek (3U2), this will give you a great view of the approach and landing. Even though I initially approach Johnson Creek from the north, I come up initial / upwind and turn crosswind to join a left downwind landing to the south so you'll see everything except Wapiti Meadows.
If you'd like more of this content, let me know and if it negatively affects the algorithm maybe I'll start a second channel with just this content.
Come visit The Bogey and me in the Continental Booth at EAA's Airventure 2024 in Oshkosh, WI.

Love the 360!! That was my Red/White Kitfox on your left at the end of the runway! We walked in for breakfast as you were leaving. One hour later the winds were 17 MPH blowing down the hill. Had to taxi to the far end and take off uphill. Good times in the back country!

Glad you liked it! Just filmed a new epic canyon run and landing. Would you like a few gauges like airspeed, rpm, altitude? I’m gonna try that

It's videos like yours that keep reminding me to stay recent to enjoy this kind of stuff.

Love how your vid shows the hog's back to the east of the runway on your departure. Good job.

Wasn't that rad? Really shows the topography well, especially on goggles. Thanks for watching!

Love the video. Thanks for all of your content! Very informative and appreciated. I'm doing the S21 build assist starting next May. The plane will be based out of Hailey, ID.

Oh sweet! Can’t wait to fly with ya out here. Just filmed a sick canyon run up middle fork and loon…will post soon. Good luck with the build!

That was fun. Felt about as real as it can without actually being there.

Dude I actually donned the Goggles for the first time since designing the paint scheme and it was trippy! Thanks for watching, Matt! I just read that Suncountry added a MSP-BOI flight!

@@CLEAREDDIRECT I’ve never tried the goggles yet. Would be addictive for sure. Yeah BOI is seasonal and a few days a week. I hope it lasts. I heard they’re also doing MSO. I’m desperately needing a western trip in the Stratobound. I don’t know if this helped scratch the itch or fuel the rage🤣

So cool. Had to stand up to get the full benefits of the 360. My wife is laughing at me. This is the first I have seen this technology on KZfaq. Amazing. The next thing you now there will be a man on the moon. Is there a way to mark “straight ahead “ on the video?

@joelmiller569 3 күн бұрын

Kinna makes you sick if you don’t have the technology to watch it in 360. Big fan tho!

I watched on my Oculus. LOTS OF FUN>

@CLEAREDDIRECT 3 күн бұрын

GREAT! I finally did too and I was pretty amazed at the realistic sensation of flight! I'll decide if I should keep posting these to my main channel or not. My sense is that KZfaq penalizes me for videos that aren't watched as readily as others. Maybe it's time to put these on a second channel. Thanks for watching!

Beautiful flight, smooth landing! What was the high-pitched beep at 19:05 just prior to landing? I assume a sensor was telling you something about AOA or speed or ??

@CLEAREDDIRECT 2 күн бұрын

Yes, AOA warnings 👍

Thanks for the beautiful footage. Just wondering why you chose to overfly the field at Johnson Creek and then whipping a 180 to enter downwind vs. a long straight-in final that was more or less aligned with your route coming in? Terrain considerations?

@CLEAREDDIRECT 3 күн бұрын

Great question! In short, it's SOP for Johnson Creek as outlined here itd.idaho.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/JohnsonCreek_SOP_Aero.pdf The reason they discourage straight-ins from Yellow Pine is that you can't hear or be heard to know if someone is taking off beak-to-beak. Plus it's always best to "shop the field" and take a look at the conditions (water? wildlife? other aircraft? wind?) before committing to an approach. Thanks for the question!

Yep! I will schedule a few meetups throughout the week with The Bogey at the Continental Motors booth. The best place to learn about the event times will be on my instagram @Cleared_Direct_Resources instagram.com/cleared_direct_resources/ Looking forward to seeing ya

Did you ever do an engine comparison video? I'm curious why you didn't go with the Rotax 915 IS (or 916) since it seems like you are planning to do a fair amount of mountain flying. My thinking (so far) is that if I'm doing a lot of mountain flying, I want the same horsepower regardless of density altitude.... but I'm open to someone changing my mind.

@CLEAREDDIRECT 2 күн бұрын

Thanks for asking. No, I haven’t filmed that video yet. Short answer is price. I would love to have a turbo and constant speed prop, but I was out of money. When I bought, the 915 was $10K more than Titan. I’m scared to know what 916 costs

@Phoenixx5115 2 күн бұрын

Yeah, 916 a tad steep at $49.5K

Steve curious about your prop pitch. Had our first flight today (S-21 trike Titan 340). 1st flight at 10 degree pitch (80) 2500 rpm 100 mph. Adjusted to 20 degrees (70) but could only get 1800 rpm so aborted that flight.

@CLEAREDDIRECT 3 күн бұрын

Did you read the Whirl wind manual? Those pitches are EXTREME. I’m pitched for high altitude cruise at 16.5°. STOL pitch is around 13.5°. Congrats on the maiden flight

Wow! That was very cool! Thanks for the instructions. I didn’t know we could interact with the 360. If a guy had VR goggles it would be like being your wingman. Thanks again.

@@akflyer7689 sure thing! Another 360 video releasing tomorrow. This time with a HUD out in front, map in the sky, compass on the ground… pretty fun canyon run to Upper Loon. Cheers!
