  • What a great hobby!

  • HEHE I'd laugh if Dave dropped his cam out the plane. lol

  • I wanna ride :-( i have flown all kinds of planes in flight simulators and stuff but never a real one. the only thing i ever been in was a CH-47 chinook. we had one come to my high school for a demo back when i was still young. out shop teacher was retired special forces. he got them to land the heli in back of the school. it was awsome. it was relavent to what we were doing in shop class. ill never forget it.

  • Beaver!!!

  • next time, take up a few grenades and drop them on daves begrudging neighbours and the local bye law officials office

  • nice;)

  • Way to go ! Now THAT is the way to get to the farm. :D

  • TOO COOL! I love it

  • i wanna come sometime haha

  • you guys have way to much fun...can I come visit in my kitfox. Alberta is not that far away...maybe a day or two. Send me the numbers so I can find it on google earth

  • Its a Rotax engine in there isnt it? Kitfoxes are awesome!

  • that is so cool... i wish i had a plane like that so i could fly anytime i want, sweet

  • that's easy in us- just get a license of microplane

  • That thing is like the four wheel drive of airplanes. Great STOL capability.

  • yah/ Just did the right job with a right engine/weight. Nice.

  • cool

  • that seems prety sweet, where is ur parachute , u can jump off with the camera hahha

  • So how fast will that plane go?

  • @matts4290 - 100 mph +

  • Awesome video.

  • Jesus, what kind of rpms does that Rotex run at? Sounds like it's going to blow up!

  • @Drew99GT - 6000 rpm only cruise -- gearbox 3 to 1 -- custom tuned pipe by me :)

    Great performer

  • Nice! 3 to 1 gearbox - does that mean it drops the prop speed down or speeds it up 3 to 1?

  • @Drew99GT  engine 6000

    prop 2000 rpm

  • does that mean a 2 to 1 would make you go faster? is there a 1 to 1?

  • @ninjafatballz -- actually most GA planes have direct drive. Rotax power is at 5000 to 6000 rpm so a gear keeps prop sub sonic and very efficient

  • ok so in other words if you had direct drive or even 2 to 1 you would be incredibly fast because of the high RPM of that engine, and you are trying to avoid that, is this correct?

  • @ninjafatballz , no, just trying to keep prop below super sonic tip speed and get a better performing prop. Too fast and it will be useless

  • Dave was respectful.

    kitfoxflyer you are corny!

    Dug the vid man.

    Show us around Canada...

  • Dave hasn't posted this footage yet, it's like an exclusive on your channel. Awesome stuff. Glad you dropped in on the farm.

  • @BaronZombie Dave got vids up now

  • that plane is the shit, what kind of 2 stroke is that?

  • rotax

  • Damn... Just saw some typo´s. Well you know what I meant..

  • Hi,

    You've got to teach Dave to use the wristwrap while taking pictures with open doors.. Stuff tends to fall out easy, hard to find afterwards..

    Nice vid!

  • The 2 Dave's ..... Awesome ! The kitfox is a sweet plane. Purrs like a kitten . Was a great day for flying!

  • Very Cool!!!!! : )
