Hope you all like the video and it inspired you to make your own foam gliders! I would also like to give a shoutout to kzfaq.info for basically pioneering the folding foamboard glider design. instagram.com/backyardscientistofficial/ twitter.com/ChemicalKevy

Florida Man: “of course they have a cannon, why wouldn’t they?”

that Finish... with the dog.... that's hilarious and seeing him chase after makes it more funny

Those shots of the plane flying from POV were absolutely stunning.

7:03 actual footage of a minecraft player using elytra

*200 years later:* "Mankind has just launched the first potato-powered plane!

I like the dog running away w the plane

The cinematics of this are amazing just saying 9/10

6:40 beautiful scenery

those were super dope! next challenge, at apogee of the pneumatic launch, ignite solid rocket motors for more height!

Him: it’s only three dollars Also him: take a carbon fiber arrow

Potato cannons I messed with were powered by hairspray and igniter...

8:25 When the teacher catches you on your phone

“You can make all of these with like.. 3 dollars” *cries in inflation*

8:21 nobody going to talk about how high up he climbed?

Love the ending when the dog ran away with the plane 🤣

Your friend Joe could probably start his own youtube channel, he's got a good way of explaining things and a good personality for presentation.

Imagine being able to hook a secondary small model rocket charge, see how far you can really take it.

*You lied to me. You’re now the FieldScientist*

“My friend joe” Oh yeah, it’s all coming together

7:38 that face when you pause! She was never going to catch that plane :'D

We call that an “Armin Wing”.

I feel like a collaboration with Flite Test could result in possibly the most awesomeness the internet will ever see.

Great ending your dog with a very custom selfie stick lol

Looks like most of your launches were with planes that were still a bit tail-heavy. Lots of mild stalling resulted. Also, adding deheidral (upward angle at the root of the wing, like a big, wide, almost flat V) to the wing would enhance stability, and get you longer, straighter flights with no "wing-over" in the middle. Great video! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun!

One of the only youtubers that dosent want to drill his videos out to 10 min just to get a another ad placed. He gets to the building process making it easy for everyone to build and not make it impossible for everyone to afford. Good job, love the videos and always will.

Backyard Scientist: "My friend Joe" Everyone waiting for him to say joe mama:

This is so beautifully made . . . the music, the flights, such a sweet diversion from quarantine. Nerds rule.

the gopro videos are soooo relaxing to watch, the going up and down faster etc. i love that style !!!

0:01 Me: why did he piss himself? *oh.. shadow*

Hey excuse me sir do you have the “Really thin Annoying stuff?” Cashier: *Of course we do!*

This is such an awesome pov. I'd just love to see more launches!

I love seeing all the local areas I grew up around in your videos brings me back to good memories!

The best part was at the end, the doggo running :D

Me at 10:00 pm: Ok I need to get some sleep. Also me at 2:50 am: *watching some dudes build a plane and launch it using a potato cannon*

6:32 "perfectly balanced, as all things should be"

It’s so wholesome how excited he gets.

Hope we see a flitetest collab soon!

you should've said "its plane to see, I've been making concepts all week"

Really excellent music choice at the end. Really cool inspiring stuff. Love it!

I come back to this video every couple of months because the GoPro footage is so soothing...would love it if you made a follow up video, possibly shooting them off of really tall things 👍👍

Me: Paper aeroplanes are fun! Backyard Scientist: Hold my glider.

The filming in this video is so awesome. That first drone shot was beautiful

that is fantastic scenery. and a great way to watch it. thanks for an awesome video, backyard scientist.

Potato cannons are awesome. Nice job. BTW...Sandra should be in every vid. She's adorable.

You should do a collaboration with flite test!

0:38 Definitely thought it was a Joe Mamma Meme

I can’t believe this video only has this many likes and views, this video is absolutely amazing, the production is so clean and high quality, and it does beautiful watching the plane fly! Good job dude!

"I love doing projects you can do at home" Me: what kinda home do you live in

The dog at the end 💛

Damn, this video seems much more... friendly than all the others. I smiled wide open at the end, love the montage.

Dude that glider footage is amazing. Give us more!

AH MAN, Kevin, wish I could've gotten to this video sooner! They flew SO well!! Nicely done on the tutorial, btw. And Beautiful flight footage!!!

I didn't get the notification but found it on the homepage. nice.

Work with FliteTest and make it RC

The beauty of the flying and the view.. tis beautiful

This entire video was freaking beautiful.

It seemed like the one that almost went into the water was stalling, try doing less elevator or moving the center of gravity back. It will go much farther if it can go straight, not going tip and down. Love your videos dude!

The king of random would have loved this

I recognize a few of the parks in the video because I actually cut the grass at them, I didn’t realize you were so close but anyway, keep up the awesome videos appreciate the insight!

This made me smile... reminds me of when I was a kid playing with rockets and kites

Those fly shots are so relaxing to watch

I have been following u for 2 years!!! you are so awesome

Super fun video. Pretty scenery and fun doggo.

“U can build this with dollar store items” Uses carbon fiber arrow

I remember the times where lawn darts were lethal. They had a nice long needle attached. Man, good times!

if this guy does his own editing and camera angles I applaud him with everything I've got

Beautiful shots and beautiful work mr backyard scientist

I imagined a potato riding an airplane when I saw the title lol

As a matter of fact i do actually already have a homemade air cannon lol :D

I just have to say. I love how smooth your videos look

Those flights look amazing in the sunset

8:27 meme format? “Gotcha”

6:39 I thought there was a car advertisement.

This is my favorite video of yours yet Very beautiful video. Keep up the good work and keep going in this direction!

Happy doggo makes me feel better, thank you.

This was seriously a great video. It was simply a joy to watch. Especially the flight footage, and the doggo, that was great! 😂

Kevin: my planes are going to be better Joe😂😂laughs

That last flight is the best one - I even like the cheeky 'smile' the dog gives :D

Gliders are so majestic.

1:03 “Oh it’s pretty simple just follow the formula” Yeah, okay.

Man, my KZfaq feed had just gone cold. Your timing is impeccable!

The theme for the test flight was perfect.

Wow thats very mesmerizing with the music.

No one: BackyardScientist: we are going to science the crap out of this

_backyard scientist peter sripol edition_

Beautiful flight videos! Thank you.

That red glider flies amazing!

"Anybody can make this" Uses 3-D printer...

I will supply the army in Antarctica with potato cannons once I've turned it into a nation

Yes! Another plane montage with Halcyon days playing in the background

This is one of your prettiest vids for sure

8:47 WHAT A GOOD BOI. YOU RUN WITH THAT PLANE DOG

Dope! Now attach some servos and fly them.

I love the camera work!

Oh my god, I love it !!!! These kinds of videos are the best!

"Interative engineering". We used to call that trial and error :-P

Thank you backyard scientist!!! Me and brother decided to follow the tutorial and we had a blast, the instructions were easy to follow and everything worked out super well! Quick question, what pressure did you put your air cannon at for launching the plains?

The dog plane was awesome! 🤣🤣

Wow so cool that plane is like a rocker at flying
