Looks like fun. You appear to have taken appropriate safety precautions, but even so, you’re playing with fire.

Matt, I have enjoyed watching your videos over the past six months. I've been flying 172 and 182s and enjoy that, but I wouldn't mind trying an ultralight. What would be the major learning curve in your opinion.

Lack of inertia and eye-to-wheel height are the two main issues GA pilots have transitioning to ULs. They're very fun to fly once you get used to the differences though!

Hi Matt I love your vidios I noticed you have aileron spades I am curious of how large they are and if they are at the same incidence as the ailerons I have a flightstar 2 with full span ailerons they are so heavy in bank . any thoughts on that do you think spades would help? Thanks!
@mmatt
@mmatt 3 күн бұрын
Yes, they are set level with the ailerons. Mine are not very effective though. I think they should be at least twice as big due to the slow speeds my plane flies at. I based them off a Citabria which flies twice as fast but I didn't factor that it when I built them. Oops. lol

They are aileron spades, an attempt to lighten the stick forces but they aren't as effective as I hoped they'd be. I think they need to be bigger.

I think that's just the slack being taken up in the control cables. I never noticed it to be honest until I installed the tail cam.

If your using this as a dedicated 22LR, can you remove the gas tube, and flip the gas block around to cover the vent hole in the barrel? I believe this kit is works with blow back, and the gas system isn't required anyways.

Aerobatics in the states are defined something like "an abnormal attitude or acceleration" (very vague), need 1500 ft AGL, there are no pilot requirements (regardless of carrying passengers or not), experimental planes need to test the maneuver in phase 1 and write the entry speed in the aircraft logbook (no requirement on who flies the test), and everyone needs a parachute if exceeding 30° pitch or 60° bank with a passenger. The other things (weather, populated areas, airspace) sound the same. Fun stuff Matt 🤙
