We use 2-stroke engines with 10 gallon tanks and get 3 hours flight time, going about 150 miles. We usually take 5-10 extra gallons in a separate can in the back seat when we take long flights. There are 4-stroke engines that can go about 4.5 hours on 10 gallons. Those aircraft typically cost much more. I've got 1000 skydiving jumps and it's great too but this kind of flying is a lot of fun.

Good music..any native yuman (from nearby yuma arizona)who rode these dunes below will get a different perspective from the trikes on high.......you can fly fast on the ground in a atv,but, flying above at 50-80 mph must be great...yeah that's the stuff!...

Thanks for watching and for your kind remarks. I'm on the usual summer hiatus from flying but look for more stuff in the fall.

Too kind! I hope to continue the videos you enjoy.

Be well, Ed

can't wait for them

i'm gonna make one

r they hard to fly??

[edobeirne]

Relative to other aircraft - not as hard to fly. To make one of your own? Possible, but probably not recommended. Enjoyable? Like nothing else in this world.

Wow! Now that's a hobby to die for! That would be an amazing experience, if only i lived somewhere as vast as that. Excellent Video and well suited music :) Peace

That's amazing I would rather do that than skydive...How long does the flight last before you have to refuel?

Love the vids!! I fly up in the Pacific Northwest and all my photography has been still shots, your videos motivated me to get a new hd camcorder and I should have it mounted and running for some awesome fall flying! Thanks and be safe!!
