awesome job

Its always good to see full size at a model air show. Used to come with my son and husband. Spent most of time in caravan as got told was bad luck on flight line. Still enjoyed it , was a good time. Cosford was good as well!

Does the Ripmax team still come? Count how many Rapiers come down? How are Gary Rawlins and Nathan? Ali Machinsky and family?

I want one

Great walk through video i wish you had time to check out the Helifest section and traders

good to see you there :)

firefox.

Second the comment about using a fuel pressure system to fill bags. That’s really the only truly safe and most reliable method. No fancy fueling station needed really, simply add a pressure switch to any fuel station and get a safely full bag every time. Thank you for all the testing! That’s something we all wonder about but few ever endeavor to destroy a bag, so your contribution to the community is most appreciated!!

Slick 103 vs Laser 103 from Pilot RC, which do you pick as a favorite for 3D flying?

Thanks for the tour

Gosling’s transmitter in the main picture must be the least used piece of electrical equipment in Europe (just kidding mate) 🤣🤣🤣

Look at the state of the ground. Trust the British weather to spoil it.

siempre haciendo los videos a toda prisa y no da tiempo de ver nada...enfin

Well, i dont see my self replacing my tank setup for a bag setup in my exciting planes. i might go with bag setup if i get a new plane that is very very small inside the fuze. to make the installation easier in a small space. other than that i keep to my trusty old setup.

Too bad about the 2 stroker in it.Should have been a 4 banger.Lovely model ,seems a bit flimsy tho.....

Wow

Nice elegant flying

I just wish you could add sound to it as it were straffing. Good job

Beautiful, love the F16

I believe that the bag is two layers and each layer provides a different function. The inner one likely resists fuel exposure while the outside one provides the bag strength.

F16 Still is my favorite of all time. If I have time I will build one, I stop the hobby back in 99 before moving up to turbine from ducted fan. once awhile it give me adrenaline when watch these video. very nice fly, it seem like tail still heavy. Very enjoy to watch .

Acrobatics are what circus performers do. Aircraft perform aerobatics!

Very good video my friend. The Zavionix smart fuel Station will soon have an embedded pressure cutoff for fuel bags.

Can you use the Spektrum DX9?

Do u use a floggt controller ? I see the pane doing 3D moves and u are not crashing. Awesome skills 👏

Incredible aircraft. Well done sir. !!!!!

I wonder why the Fuel Station doesn't have s pressure sensor that can detect an excess of pressure needed to fill the tank, stopping the pump when the pressure reach a certain amount. That would prevent the tank from exploding.

Very stupid system from SmokeEL. Empty the tank before filling it makes no sense. Just add a pressure sensor and detect it is full. I would NEVER use this from SmokeEL. There are so much more options available ;)

Great video of something that I've often wondered about Martin with a surprisingly good outcome. However, I don't envy you with your clean up operation as you'll be smelling Kero in your workshop for weeks to come. I'm sure those plastic Totes come with lids. Lol

Great video! How do you compensate the CG with fuel?

What about a crash would it explode

I think it will shut off

Yes but you can’t see the air bubbles to shake out I’m confused.

I wonder what the fuel pressure does to the fuel pump calibration in turbine applications. Presumably as the bag deflates the pressure decreases and the pump has to go higher. Is that supported by all ECUs?

When old is new again but a nice weight saving.

Ive noticed fuel bags/bladders are fairly popular in boats vas they can fit in thight spaces of the hull. Seem to be fairly resistant.

This is interesting, for sure. What's the best way to install it in the jet and secure it given the physical size of the bag changes? You have to have straps or something when flying inverted but as the bag empties, the straps are no longer taught on the bag. If you have to build an "enclosure", that weight must be considered as well but, clearly, you still lose the weight of the UAT. I'd like to see the proper way to install it in the jet.

Many Many thanks Martin !!! Very intresting video. all my questons about fuels bag are now disappeared !!

Martin, hello from Dubai. Great video! Filling the fuel bag from the turbine line is cumbersome. Best to use Jetcat Fuel Station and always fill in from the ‘vent’ line. Once the bag is full, the pump will cycle 2-3 times to automatically remove all the air. It works perfectly every time and you don’t need to have a T on the turbine line or a valve on the ‘vent’ line and try every time to manually remove the air…. I love fuel bags, will never go back to tanks

❤❤

Martin pickering hola me podrías saludar soy tu fan Gracias a ti empecé a hacer 3D tengo un avión de múltiplex un parkmaster tengo 10 años y empezaste muy chico a las 5 acá en Chile tú me inspiraste para hacer todas las acrobacias ahora hago muy buenas acrobacias 3D Gracias a a ti

I would have done the burst test with water. Thanks for making the mess.

awesome video! the Fuel Station looks pretty awesome too :-)

How about using the correct fuelling jug, JetCat or Vspeak and then over filling is not an issue ever, bag only fills to preset pressure

The one I was gifted at Birth has worked so well, I'd love to see one inserted into a multi-million dollar metal flying killing machine😂

not keen it looks a complete faf

Explain why you didn't place the lid on top of the clear plastic "tote" you used for this experiment or more importantly, no lid or goggles for eye protection?????

I love the fuel bladders. This gives more peace of mind.

Noise reduction from the blades, I want more blade noise (and less motor noise)..blade noise makes the heli awesome
