It is evident how amazing this aircraft is, emerging as the fastest single-engine piston aircraft on the market, even surpassing by far what some conventional and much more expensive certified aircraft can offer.
Of course, it is not a perfect aircraft by any means, but considering what you are going to pay to get it, it gives you a lot for what it costs. With this bird, you will have guaranteed hours of fun flying through the skies, either with your family, friends, or alone. Today, over a thousand owners have assembled the plane of their dreams. What is the reward? One of the best overall performing piston aircraft on the market, capable of meeting the expectations of the most demanding pilots, at a very cheap price.

At 11:30 the narrator states that when it is flown too slowly, the cannard pitches the aircraft up, creating additional lift??? As I understood it, when flying too slowly, the cannard stalls first, pitching the plane down and the main wing from stalling. Or, does this only apply to AOA, with the cannard stalling at a lower AOA than tha main wing? I mean, speed, AOA and lift are all tied together... maybe someone can someone clarify this for the rest of us?

You are correct. The cunard is designed to stall before the main wing and drop the nose thus averting a main wing stall.

Yes, when you are about to stall the main wing the AOA of the canard causes an early stall there, but otherwise it's just extra lift and stabilization.

Nice review. The comments below are calling out the maybe not so obvious mistakes, but I'm not going to ding you on it as you've done a nice job assembling the work here. I agree the Velocity is a pretty dang nice plane. From a kit perspective it is a bit on the higher end of the costs to build - but that doesn't mean I wouldn't want to build one if I had the time/money. I'm building a traditional kit which costs about half to build and uses traditional metal over the composite/fiberglass which can be messy and is harder to work with IMHO.

Yikes! There is NO pressurization system on this plane. The inflatable door seals are ONLY to reduce noise. The construction isn't strong enough to support pressurization, so even if you managed to plug all the holes, the front window will blow out if you tried to pressurize it. But Velocities do come with oxygen systems.

@speedomars3869 Жыл бұрын
Pressurization and flight into known ice were not mission elements for this plane. it is a cross country cruiser, but not in deep IMC. it does come equipped with built-in oxygen systems so can easily cruise around 18k if desired.
@Rassah
@Rassah Жыл бұрын
@@speedomars3869 Pressurization is just impossible for ALL versions of this plane due to the way it's constructed, not just for this plane in particular. And yeah it's not designed for having deice systems, but they can be added as electric heat pads to the front of the wings. Propeller doesn't need deice because it gets heat from the engine and exhaust according to some people who tested it. I've flown mine in deep IMC before, just not in icing. Mine doesn't have built in oxygen, but I have a portable oxygen unit that would let me fly above 18k. That said, only turbo versions are capable of it. Most Velocities have naturally aspirated engines, since they're cheaper and more efficient (less gas guzzling), so it starts to sputter out and really struggle above 17k, and the most efficient flight altitude is at around 14k. But oxygen is still good at that altitude since you avoid headaches with it.

@@Rassah No one alleges this plane or any other GA plane not designed for pressurization can be retrofitted for it. That is silly. Cirrus for example waiting to make a small jet to do pressurization. Pressurization is NOT NEEDED unless you are flying in the flight levels most of the time. Even de-icing systems are not needed for most GA planes. It is convenient to have oxygen on board for flying between 12k and 18k. The sweet spot for most GA cross country flying.

The Evo has had problems in the air and nearly went out of business entirely. Many fatal accidents. Still, it is a different animal given they are equipped with a turbine engine which costs more new than an entire Velocity is to build and own. The speed of an Evo is dependent on engine choice. The gas version is slower than the Velocity and is a 350hp gas guzzler. The turbine versions cruise between 250 and 300. But again, dependent on engine choice and cost. The Velocity with the Continental IO550C 310hp engine is said to cruise around 220 to 250kts. Pretty good for the fuel burn rate and the fact it is flown much lower than an evolution to get similar speeds, the Evo of course is pressurized.

You can flair but the canard design limits the ability to stall for safety so it sort of becomes harder to pull the nose up at slower speeds.

The door seal is NOT for pressurization, it is to reduce drafts and noise. The demo plane is showing the GTN 625. The aircraft is made of fiberglass, far stronger than metal or carbon fiber and the plane is rated in the acrobatic range for g-loads, thus flying faster than 225ktas is no problem. The twin is SLOWER and less fuel efficient than the XL. The Evolution is a bankrupt product...not really available.

since when is fiberglass "far stronger than carbon fiber"? You're completely delussional... you need to start telling all those silly dumb designers with Boeing, Airbuss, and the military that fiberglass is stronger they must have it all wrong as you seem like a genious

@@slowery43 Laughing. Cirrus makes all carbon fiber GA aircrafts, famous for being the first large manufacturer to use cabon fiber in their design. Long before Boeing or any other passenger plane maker. The Cirrus are rated Normal category +3.8g to -1.52 g. The Velocity is all fiber glass and rated +12g and -7g. More than acrobatic and 4x stronger than Cirrus. You may also want to use a spell checker when commenting, "delussional" has one "s". And "genious" is spelled "genius".

"...the construction experience much FUNNIER???" WTF? Why leave a mistake that huge in your video? It was grammatically incorrect in the first place. They obviously wanted to say "funner" but since this was made by 11 year olds, they didn't know the only way to say it was "much more fun." But then they misspelled funner as "funnier" and the Ai voice just read whatever was written and they never bothered to edit or check for errors. Or they really think it's funny to construct airplanes.
