It’s either a prototype, production design that’s been abandoned, currently being produced(but not widely available or distributed), a test bed aircraft similar to the link I posted...if it’s the test bed those engines along with other components can be swapped out relatively easily. I’m an aircraft mechanic and major…

I know the original targeted market could probably care less about the power output, but DAMN that’s some weak sauce coming from all those cylinders!

Not sure what happened to the link but it wasn’t the article..maybe cuz I’m on a mobile device.. here’s one from CBC.. https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.4676690

As I explained to another commenter, there’s some sort of lockout preventing any mid flight wing folds..even if the pilot tried to fold them. In the naval aviation community this is know as a “weight off wheels” switch. When engaged it prevents wings from folding when it’s activated..it could be a a simple switch in…

Posted this in the main comments too, it’s them in action. That hydraulic actuator doing the folding is one of the biggest you’ll find on present aircraft.

This what a proper wing fold system looks like..777s are basically folding winglets :)

I’m a naval aviation structural mechanic, specialized in carrier based aircraft..all had folding wings. Never even heard of a mishap mid flight with wings folding. There’s basically a dead man’s switch preventing wings folding when weight is off the wheels (weight of wheel switch) meaning while in flight even if the…

You can find a similar set of tools relatively cheap from Harbor Freight that can also clean threads..tap and die set. That’s basically all it’s good for. You get what you pay for:)

Doesn’t look like they thought out the track clearance very well. It already looks like it hit below the “3", but it does look like it would be fun. Handling might be a pain in the ass though. I think they might have to play with the width of the skis to improve the steering. Too wide and they would float too much on…

Holy crap!! I’m surprised this doesn’t happen more, especially during rally races.

I don’t have time to check, but I’m pretty sure I’m not the first to comment on this clever line..

Lol..came here to say something very similar. Bad Japanese knockoff!

This is freakin’ awesome..why hasn’t it been incorporated into modern cars. There was a video posted a few days ago here that had a water sprayer added to a Japanese drift car. It was only to cool the tires down faster after a run. If I find it I’ll post the link.

I’m from Michigan :) It’s been awhile since I’ve been to Frankenmuth.. I’ll definitely check one of those the next time I’m in town.

Ignore the first reply..had to step away I was hoping to come back and add to it. Not as hard as you’d think. As long as you have the will it can be done on most cars. There’s a bunch of modular aftermarket kits..will most likely include some welding. There’s 2 types that I know of (not an expert, might be others)…

Not as hard as you’d think. As long as you have the will it can be done on most cars. There’s a bunch of modular after market kits..will most likely include some welding. There’s 2 types that I know of (not an expert might be others) body or suspension lift.

Can I come over and play?

Nope, I don’t like it. Even tried to squint. Looks like a Saturn and playschool toy car had a bastard child. That was another really bad time for Chrysler..garbage cars.

Pretty sure that “one party law” goes for phone conversations as well.

Popeye’s is very similar..it’s got a Cajun influence so it’s spicy. It’s found mainly in the south. Not bad for fast food chicken. And I’m from the north, so I’ve had Church’s as well..think it’s slightly better than KFC(least favorite).
