Is there any issue with heat induced metal fatigue on the landing gear since it’s sitting directly in the exhaust flow?

@AirplanesInTheWild 3 ай бұрын

I’ve never heard of that being a problem. Seems pretty unlikely since this thing cruises around at 90+mph and is air cooled.

@blakemueller7346 6 ай бұрын

What are you using for a camera mount?

@AirplanesInTheWild 6 ай бұрын

For the air to air shots? We are using our hands.

@blakemueller7346 6 ай бұрын

Hands is what I use too! No I meant the giant pole on the wing

@iFlyAlaska-Official 6 ай бұрын

When I built this bird I ran an aircraft usb power supply out to the end of the wing for a camera that is switched in the panel. Then I added steel brackets to mount a pole so I could run a 360 camera a few feet in front of the wing. makes for some fun drone like shots.

you mean a Maule?

@iFlyAlaska-Official 6 ай бұрын

Nope definitely a stretched Pacer. You probably know this but the Maule airplane company came about after Belford had a beef with the Piper company and then left to start his own company starting with his own version of the Pacer. Since then they have become a GREAT company. Brent and his family are still building amazing airplanes at Maule.
