So nothing about the Ice Caps would be gone by now? Or that Florida would be under water? Sea levels would be up 10 meters or whatever AlGore was saying. Pretty sure he said we only had 10 years. Here it is 10 years later and pretty much every doomsday prediction he had is a bust.

The thing that i find so amusing about

How about don’t blabber about all your bad memories on Facebook in the first place!! No one wants the see that crap anyways.

I get the feeling that people are never going to be happy until they live in completely environmentally controlled bubbles where nothing will ever be bad.

You mean Whataburger... this is Texas after all.

I do a lot of work in car plants. I have been to the highest production plant in the US (Nissan Smyrna) and I have been to the Tesla plant, arguably the lowest production plant. I have also been to the Tesla Plant when it was NUMMI and they were making 400,000 vehicles a year in that building.

I don’t think their

I think that most people will be willing to overlook a lot for this car. I mean overall, a Tesla is a pretty decent quality vehicle. The average GM, Ford, and Chrysler vehicle have way more issues than the average Tesla. The fact that it is a seriously high tech vehicle makes it more likely that people will accept

Every one of those Flying Wings has a swept wing that creates drag behind the Center of Gravity for the plane. This plane does not have that. Worse, with the retracting canard, the center of lift for this plane is so far behind the CG, the only thing that will happen is it will act like a bomb and plummet straight

It is about the stability not turning. I have designed dozens of RC Planes. When a plane doesn’t have enough tail surface or drag behind the center of gravity the plane becomes unstable and tries to swap ends. My Star Trek Bird of Prey was the first one that I designed that had this problem. It took a lot of redesign

It definitely works as a multi-rotor. Transitioning to forward flight is always the hardest part though. People have been working on it for years. RC Hobbyists have been making progress but it is hard to eliminate basic flight requirements

If this were a true flying wing I might agree. This is not. It has a tiny wing in the back, a retractable canard lift thingy, and a huge fat body sticking out in front.

That thing will fly like a lawn dart.

That’s awesome. I have watched your video before. I didn’t know that was you that did it! That is a beautiful design for sure. I go for the more budget and time constrained approach to my designs. Got a ton of them though.

I know all about the X-36. It is designed as am intentionally unstable aircraft that is held in check by very powerful flight computers.

I will let you decide if I am good at designing RC Planes.

Now playing

I don’t know, I ended up adding some vertical fins to stabilize my X-Wing.

Forward flight with a plane like this requires a tail. The B-2 is an unstable plane that requires computer control to keep it in the air... and they still crash.

That will never fly. There is no Vertical Tail Surface! As a guy that design RC Aircraft, I promise you that this is going nowhere. These people have no clue what they are doing.

There are a couple communications satellite companies that have already signed on for the discounted launch. They insure their stuff anyways.

Now playing

How is it possible that no one has posted this yet??!!?!?!

Why can’t I play this?!?!?!

People have no concept of the size of the earth.
