Microlight trike summer fun 2008

[santosh4mahale]

Great video.

[geneland]

Great Music, Great Editing, Great Flying! loved your video!

[jaitchproductions]

how much are one of these? and how much are classes?

[VodkaFanClub]

@jaitchproductions Depending on number of things, I can not give an exact number as an answer for your question. Must first contact with your local aviation club to learn more on these machines and how their training is specialized. In Hungary you can buy a single seat, old but airworthy microlight trike for about 1500 Euro, a good condition 2 seater for approx 4000 Euro. Complete training until final handling test - depending on if you start learning on your own trike - is about 1 to 2000 EU

Sir, what is the AllUpWeight of the Trike ? What's the engine and it's hp rating ? And what are the dimensions of the wing ? Also does it have ailerons or something so that you can make turns in the air ?

[topstar3]

How cheap can these trikes be found? Flying for al iving can get boring al lday long, this seems like it's "true flight" in all it's entirety.

[emuvideo]

You should re-edit the second part and slap a different track over it if it can be easily done. Good video!

[Leyenda1]

Great video great song. U2 always reminds me of California...

[rockhopper123452]

do u need a licence to fly them?

[VodkaFanClub]

@rockhopper123452 You can try without but that's the sure way to kill yourself and someone else on the ground. Need a licence more than any other vehicle! You here move in 3 dimensions, very different from traffic on the ground. You also have to know airfield limitations, because there are huge jets also up there and you must never come close to any airfield they use. Not to mention, you need years and hundred of flying hours to master the control of an aircraft. It's a step by step process..

[chrisjames13579]

@VodkaFanClub - THE most responsible thing I have ever heard an ultralight pilot say. Thank you very much. need many more of you and many less of the dime store cowboys.

[TheHevquip]

@VodkaFanClub Nah, fuck that. The Wright brothers winged it (no pun intended) and so will I!

[ge22aw]

awesome video!!:D how did you start flying?

Are those planes done by yourself?

[VodkaFanClub]

@ge22aw Thank you :) No, of course, but there were some modifications done by myself on some of the aircrafts.. How did I start? When I was born, immediately :) I mean, I always felt the desire. Then, it was just about the question of time..

[ge22aw]

[KarelLetec]

Hi you have beautiful videos. How you caught a camera on the wing and tricycle? Please, some pics

[SR71pilot2007]

how cold does it get when you fly these? let's assume the temperature ranges from 80-90 Fahrenheit (27-32 Celsius) , how cold do you think it would be flying about 300 ft (91m) off the ground?

[meggark]

@SR71pilot2007 You won't notice any great temperature difference that low to the ground. In general the temp drops about 2degC/1000ft. Wind chill is also a big factor, it can be chilly at 60mph. Here in the UK during winter it can be absolutely freezing, I need heated gloves and thermal flying suit to be comfortable, but during the summer I can just jump in and go. Some places, like Florida it can be comfortable in shorts and t-shirt so it really depends.

[badbrad2424]

lol nice IMC trike flying haha good job

[edobeirne]

Nice flying, great editing, and excellent advice below for future flyers.

[squarcitto]

WOW fantastic! Just a question, do you think flying trikes is dangereous? Or in other words which is the safest ultralight machine for you? ;))

BTW thanx for your nice vid!

[VodkaFanClub]

Thank you for watching! The safest thing would be to stay on the ground, locked into an empty, double walled room :) If a pilot is crazy, there is no existing type of aircraft that could provide a 100% safety - human factor is determinant. I think that if weather conditions are highly taken into account and you have a high quality equipment, the safest form of flying is probably Powered Paragliding (PPG). But if you follow the rules and take them seriously, a trike can also be absolutely OK!

[squarcitto]

@VodkaFanClub Maybe a couple of shots of vodka before flying can be a safety issue! ;))

Anyway I thought paragliding was only the cheapest way to fly! Nice to know!

Thanks a lot!

[markkloplepol]

@VodkaFanClub do you have to be a pilot to drive that plane?

[patemansmith1]

@VodkaFanClub man im 13 and im saving up for one of these

[Real1ty]

Why did you fly it over a city? Isn't that against the law?

[VodkaFanClub]

I am the law

[Real1ty]

touché

[VodkaFanClub]

:) It is legal to fly over cities, but at a minimum altitude of 300 meters AGL. Sometimes we are lower because of airfield limitations, or photographing but ONLY if we see a safe place in range to land in case of an engine failure. Of course, the most beautiful part of a flight is when flying extremely high, or very low over rivers and fields. It can be dangerous and so the aircraft must be 100%, but the experience is ever-lasting. Hard to resist the temptation :)

[djesun1]

awesome

[VodkaFanClub]

Thank you for watching!

[kaptipepe]

Az egyik legjobb Microlight video a tyúbon. Odab...

:)

[VodkaFanClub]

Koszi :) Remeljuk iden nyaron lesz meg sok ilyen. Ezert kuzdok!

[Flyawaywithme11]

werent those IFR conditions?

[VodkaFanClub]

A little bit :)

[buzzardclub]

Great vid!! keep them coming!!

[ptshark]

By the way, what is the takeoff distance required? from the still position until reach a height +/- of 8 to 10m (some trees)

I have a runway near my house, 300m longer, but it has some trees on both thresholds.

and for landing? do you have, or can have, any kind of brakes?

[VodkaFanClub]

Sorry for the delay in answer! My wing is 19 square meters, engine below 40 horsepower, me 70 kgs, 15 liter full tank. Takeoff distance with no wind is I think approx.: 60 meters, to climb to 10 meters is maybe 5 seconds with max. power, that is 90 meters. So all together I'd say 150 meters of minimum is necessary. Of course it varies with season, current weather conditions and runway quality. I have brake, but it's a "tire-push" type :) I don't use it much. Stall speed is below 40 km/h.

[ptshark]

thats sad. i've loved the longest one, the video and the music. by the way, what music is? the one thats missing...

[VodkaFanClub]

Thank you for watching me again :) The missing music is called: "You get what you give" from New Radicals..

[ptshark]

Thx m8! ;-)
