Lego Bell-Boeing V-22 Osprey the first try ends with crash

[janpollie2]

or is there a manual

[Itchy4000]

@janpollie2

No manual, no tutorial video. You have only the pictures of building history on the end of this video.

[Soap1180]

can u make a totorial video on how to make this?

[Itchy4000]

[Zemeb]

Will it blend?

[Itchy4000]

@Zemeb

Yes, it Blends.

[FLAM1nWaffl3x]

@Itchy4000 i dont see how that can fly or did you use strings?

[wiwo200]

cool

[TheSpartanCV]

AMAZING!

[transformerskid567]

legos are so heavy, to get that thing to fly you would need bigger props and a faster motor, like HUGELY FASTER.

[somkid47]

HOW MUCH.

[MrFarface10118]

can it fly without a string attached

[Itchy4000]

@MrFarface10118

No

[mcjaggerify]

@Itchy4000 then try makeing it fly without the string if you can het it to fly and do a figure 8 it is a plane and if you can just get it to fly in a straight line it could work

[TheSisisspore]

Use those screws to make an airboat!!

[MrZacbot]

good design though

[12Nudler]

3:05.. something wierd.. plane crash ..

[fiverats1]

@KnuxMaster you cant see the string?? He used a pulley to lift the mechanism. The smart level on alot of people has dropped. If it took off on its own, the string holding it wouldve folded and possibly hit a rotor. So the guy you tryed to correct is right.

[ordenador79]

Hi, this is Fantastic, where do you buy the airscrews? And wich are connected to the lego parts?

Thank you

Alberto

[Itchy4000]

@ordenador79

You can buy the airscrews online. Graupner 11-7"

The airescrew hub has a hole with the diameter of Lego axles and a clamping screw.

[1996Europa]

its a fake you see it on 3:05

but it looks nice;)

[KnuxMaster]

@1996Europa I think its a safety tether so the aircraft doesnt go out of control and crash to the floor. it does lift off on its own you can plainly tell

[Dr904]

Anyone who knows a little about physics, knows this is fake. It behaves just like if it were hanging in a thread.

[1000LMFAOfan]

Tilt the propellers 

[freakyizer]

nice try but you see that the propellors have totaly no lift beqause the wings that are attached to the propellors still are bending down but still nice try

[Itchy4000]

@freakyizer

That's not right. The propellers brings a thrust of 2N. Where from do you think comes the power for rotating.

[gdoset]

@Itchy4000 Also, the battery wasn't on the airship, it was conected by wires, so even if it flew, woudn't go too far :/ (sorry for english mistakes, it's not my native language)

[Itchy4000]

@gdoset

The battery hangs on the back end of the plane under the two M-motors.

[gdoset]

@Itchy4000 i was talking about my prototype :D

[benhobby17]

@itchy4000 what is that thing at the top of the frame @2:37 and @2:48?

Starting to make me suspect...

[Itchy4000]

@benhobby17

You can see it in my other Osprey video.

[gdoset]

@Itchy4000 Ok, it's fake, but it's still really impressive. I'm working on something like a quadcopter. The only problem I can see is that the relation power-weight isn't the best thing in LEGO pieces. I like those airscrews. I was using paper ones, but when it was going full power, the single pins that were supporting the blades bend and the blades touched it, breaking down :/

But... I'm still hopeful, if LEGO made some pieces specially for this, would be a lot easier.

[RADZADprodutions]

Very nice job!!!!! I have one question! Did u buy that or make it from Legos and parts of rc planes?!

[Itchy4000]

@RADZADprodutions

You can't buy this. The second answer is correct. Only the two airscrews are a non Lego parts.

[MisterLEM0NS]

Im no rocket scientist but ide say 2 motors with the thrust to verticly lift a battery power pack, the weight of the body, and the motors themselves at what looked like a 45 degree angle would throw that into a wall without time for any response. If we wanted to be a little less technical we could say one of the rotors fell off and it kept flying.

Unlike the other A-holes here I am willing to say you did a damn nice job with the looks and function though.

[mattysfreerunning]

Its basicly there. You need to mabye consider a outside power source and power the motors through a cable. Or a non-Lego more powerfull and lighter battery. This is still sick tho to see how close you are to getting it to take off :)

[xdxdnike1]

this is cheat

[ChristianHentze]

that is just....................AWESOM­E

[rushhour223]

It is really convincing until you look right above it.

[Ariranhaa]

For a moment I thought it was really flying :.-(

[Donovano2010]

Go to the Lego company and get famous

[1987brick]

you can see the whats spinning it around up top this is fake

[Itchy4000]

@1987brick

Look at my other Osprey video and know the truth.

[bartybum]

@Itchy4000 Mate, this is a tethered flight. That Osprey is not lifting via thrust. The angle of the craft while turning is nowhere near realistic. Don't go telling him to look at the other video, because that's also hanging off a string or wire. These two videos are fraud.

[Itchy4000]

@bartybum

Please do not forget that I have just built the model out of Lego. I am near the limit of what is possible with Lego. You're welcome to make it better, but it is much easier to scream liar.

[bartybum]

@Itchy4000 No, you're a fraud. We can all see that the Osprey is definetely tethered. Anyway, the landings in all of your videos are too bouncy and smooth. You can't control a Lego motor like that. It's definetely moving forward, because of the props, but the props can't provide enough lift. So I stand by my own side and still scream "liar". LIAR

You Sir, are a troll.

[Itchy4000]

@bartybum

You've convinced me. I will upload a "How it works" video. I'm using the LEGO ® Power Functions IR Speed​Remote Control (8879) and thus can control the speed of the motors exactly. Why do you think that the props can't provide enough lift? You can see that they do it (with the counterweight).

[bartybum]

@Itchy4000 I'm not going to scream "liar" at you anymore. It's a fake, but quite an impressive one. Major things you're gonna want to work on though:

1. The take off looks like it's being assisted by a gyro, as the craft's nose is tilting up and down. Also, make it look a bit more rough.

2. The landing needs to look more like a thump, as if it is just way too light.

This is a very nice fake. You could use it as one of those spinny tethered flyers that get nailed to the roof.

[bartybum]

@Itchy4000 The props can't provide enough lift as:

A. The landing does not look in any way like an RC landing.

B: It's a tethered flight.

[calvin482]

@Itchy4000 Is there a way i could buy this because i have alot of ideas i could to with this

[Itchy4000]

@calvin482

No, but you can buy the airscrews online. Graupner 11-7"

[Mr88high]

are you using non-lego parts? those motors seemed a bit fast for pf

[Itchy4000]

@Mr88high

I use 4 PF XL-Motors with a gear ratio of 1:15.

[G1McK]

ANd here I thought it was impossible, amazing, well done!
