Fun RC Air-Sled Vehicle Samm Sheperd (SNRS) 2014-12-31 | The super simple speedy drifty air sled land boat smooth surface vehicle!Made from Dollar Tree FoamboardBasically the first thing I did a year and a half ago when figuring out rc electronics (back then with a motor and ESC from a car, and a random propeller) was mount it to a sheet of foam with a rudder. And it worked so well and was so fun I had to try it again!Once I added the vertical wings it really became a real thing.

Icy Trip to Palouse Falls | 4k Samm Sheperd 2017-02-14 | In this video I got a spontaneous rush of motivation to go do something and attempt to also film it.

Review | Tarot 130 FPV Quad Samm Sheperd 2016-08-24 | The Tarot 130 is a miniature version of a high performance FPV race drone.Find the Tarot 130 Quad here: http://www.gearbest.com/rc-quadcopters/pp_363734.html?lkid=10235145Honestly it doesn't matter PAL or NTSC. But the old school 'standard' is NTSC for North America and PAL for Europe etc.PROS:-It's super configurable for those with quadcopter experience to tune it to their liking (or for noobs to try it out)-It's so cute!-Can fit through tight gaps-The FPV quality is pretty great.-Really quite a fast exploration machine.CONS:- Video antenna needs to be secured-Access to USB is blocked by stand off (just remove it and don't put it back)-It's a little over built and under powered-Motors are not well balanced, still flies good but makes annoying sound.-Other Toys & Hobbies at GearBest: http://goo.gl/eyqU4b To see what I'm up to as it happens, follow me on instagram.com/sammsheperdIf you feel like it supporting:https://www.patreon.com/samm_sheperd?... for monthly supportyoutube.com/nessfultude22 has fan funding enabled on the right side of the pagePaypal email: sammshep@gmail.com

How do Vortex Generators Work? Samm Sheperd 2015-11-16 | Viewer Submitted VG design in the wind tunnel: youtube.com/watch?v=_wOIALPBrwkSome more thoughts as I think of them:In short:What they do:They help air flow around things (shrink the wake/separation bubble) and help air stay attached to wings at large angles of attack.How they do it:They "energize" the boundary layer by mixing the slow layers with fast layers.Vortex generators are nothing fancy. Any little fin sticking in the air at an angle to the wind will work. there are even other non "fin" type objects that work. (like an "air tab")The back side of a cyliner or my rear windshild can be thought of like a wing at a high angle of attack! Airflow separation and stalling an airplane wing are the same thing. Wings can stall also because of sharp leading edges, making the airflow separate suddenly up front instead of starting from the back. This leads to abrupt and "sharp" stall characteristics.Experimental Slat Plane youtube.com/watch?v=WH8kCTzy91AFeatured plane build youtube.com/watch?v=aV5hILJe20UInviscid flow ball http://www.allstar.fiu.edu/aero/Flow1.htmMoving inviscid flow ball en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_flow_around_a_circular_cylinderIdeal flow vs Actual Flow http://studydroid.com/imageCards/0m/h7/card-23632917-back.jpgBoundary Layer: youtube.com/watch?v=7SkWxEUXIoMEnding Porsche in a wind tunnel youtube.com/watch?v=pplOtFq_2PY To see what I'm up to as it happens, follow me on instagram.com/sammsheperdIf you feel like it supporting:https://www.patreon.com/samm_sheperd?... for monthly supportyoutube.com/nessfultude22 has fan funding enabled on the right side of the pagePaypal email: sammshep@gmail.com
$5 Trainer Build Techniques Samm Sheperd 2015-11-07 | FAQ'sI used the standard small "9 gram" servos like I use on everything. I used a 2200mah 3s and a 3200mah 3s but It could carry a 1000mah or even a 4000mah. The motor was an eflight park 400 with 18 amp esc. but that motor is way expensive compared to the generic ones.Nosewheel mount/hing thing: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__8432__Front_Wheel_Steering_Arm_Mount_Set_40mm_5sets_.htmlTo learn more about the RC ELECTRONICS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j61Q3..."$5 Trainer" original video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKt6b...I apologize that the title of the referenced video is misleading as the cost of materials in not $5. When I originally made it, I only had to buy a $5 sheet of foamboard and all the other materials I found laying around my parents house. The name has since sorta sunk in and I'm not sure I can undo it. I made the "$5 trainer" while on Christmas vacation at my families house home from college. I wanted to do a project with my little brother. I had been doing some rather tedious and complicated projects (chainsaw plane and I put an autopilot on my big flying wing but didn't make a video about that) and I wanted a break and to do a simple project to get back to my roots and demonstrate that you don't need to do a whole lot to make an airplane.I was surprised by how many people requested a build video, because I don't particularly like watching build videos, though there are interesting insights and tips, they are just long and I'd rather be making my ideas come to life (or actually working on my degree).But I didn't feel like rebuilding that same plane, partly because I don't still have that blue wonder motor but also because I would rather spend my time making new things.So this video is a new airplane design, but made with the same materials and techniques as were used on the "$5 Trainer."Hope I can inspire others and provide insights on my work flow. This is a fun method because you can make the fuselage have whatever cross section you want and make things look kind of scale. As opposed to a hollow square foam tube.I love to help people with questions so PM me or comment.here is a list of stuff someone made and it's probably pretty good Motorhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__22418__NTM_Prop_Drive_Series_28_26A_1200kv_286w_AUS_Warehouse_.htmlProp8x6 prop for that motorServohttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__662__HXT900_9g_1_6kg_12sec_Micro_Servo.html 3xhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__20959__30CM_Servo_Lead_Extention_JR_with_hook_26AWG_5pcs_bag_.htmlhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__9690__JR_Y_Servo_Lead_30CM_Length_5pcs_bag_.htmlESChttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__13429__HobbyKing_30A_BlueSeries_Brushless_Speed_Controller.htmlRadiohttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__54822__OrangeRx_T_SIX_2_4GHz_DSM2_Compatible_6CH_Transmitter_w_10_Model_Memory_and_3_Pos_Switch_Mode_2_.htmlReceiverhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__92295__OrangeRx_R610V2_DSM2_Compatible_6CH_2_4GHz_Receiver_w_CPPM.html LiPohttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__8934__Turnigy_2200mAh_3S_25C_Lipo_Pack.htmlChargerhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__58457__Turnigy_Accucell_6_50W_6A_Balancer_Charger_LiHV_Capable.html?strSearch=Turnigy%20Accucell-6Power Supplyhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__25283__HobbyKing_105w_7A_Compact_Power_Supply_100v_240v_.htmlStuffhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__9572__Nylon_XT60_Connectors_Male_Female_5_pairs_GENUINE.htmlhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__76023__Turnigy_4mm_Heat_Shrink_Tube_1M_Red_.htmlhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__9572__Nylon_XT60_Connectors_Male_Female_5_pairs_GENUINE.htmlhttp://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__68__PolyMax_3_5mm_Gold_Connectors_10_PAIRS_20PC_.htmlalso grab some 3mm prop adapters To see what I'm up to as it happens, follow me on instagram.com/sammsheperdIf you feel like it supporting:https://www.patreon.com/samm_sheperd?... for monthly supportyoutube.com/nessfultude22 has fan funding enabled on the right side of the pagePaypal email: sammshep@gmail.com
