Bike helmet for flying an aircraft
lol letting someone fly something with no experience should be a violation to air standards if you fly high enough would be a safety hazard but happy i watched this
can they please put a tour de france winner in there!
This video pretty much exemplifies British engineering in a nutshell – it's a pure 'bloke messing about in his shed' mentality. Marvellous!
Does it not have any gears? Surely they would help?
I would im my boloxe get in that.
Dont tell france they'll start giving them to africans
And yet if I built a model of that I'd need to register with the CAA, pass a test, pay a fee, and clearly mark the plane with my Operator ID.
Love your videos, just thought I'd mention the model aircraft thing.
Why don’t they put a slightly higher gear ratio on it?
I want to build one
Glad to see you were wearing the reflective safety gear.
as a birb occupying a frail and malfumpctioning hooman host body, i find that riding a bike is already the closest to flight of all the things i can do by myself. i would absolutely love to get a couple takes with that contraption!

9:17 So, it's 4 oclock in the morning right now….
I've heard that line before in another video!
What's with blurring out the background of the airfield? Too busy launching bombing runs on Russian schools?
Interesting to think you join an engineering society – and then they tell you that you need to improve your cycling and sprinting
I sense a great disturbance in the force. As if a thousand "you got a loicense for that?" posters have read the title of this video and had a spontaneous collective aneurysm.
To be honest, it's probably more safe than a regular 1-person aircraft (thinking small prop plane, not something like a fighter jet).
– Supervised by Southampton University.
– Looks complicated enough to actually take skill and care to build. (old mate Dave can't build this in the back garden out of a tarp, some bike parts and a bit of can-do attitude.)
– Is a society so it's structured aviation.
What if…. You put some of those battery powered assisted exoskeleton walking devices on your legs? (Like Hypershell)?
Slowly becoming the new Tom Scott
Would love to see what a pro cyclist could do in this. Or any high endurance athlete.
This a society that southampton has? Lol, wow.

I am sure that if such craft ever became popular, a licence would be required to fly one.
You can fly any foot launched aircraft without a licence, such as a powered paraglider.
British engineering is ace!
You know , e bikes are a thing now 🤗
The reason you kept veering left is an oldie and a goldie in recreational aviation.
To sum it up in a word; propwash.
On your flying bike, and on every other light aircraft on the planet, when facing forwards, the propellor spins clockwise. With enough thrust, or enough forward motion, this induces a similar rotational current in the air behind it. This current sinks as you proceed behind the propellor; by the time you reach the vertical tailplane, the bottom edge of the current, flowing right-to-left (same forward-looking pov), sits below the tailplane, whilst the top edge of the current (flowing left-to-right) is directly intersecting it. This forces the tailplane right, thus forcing the nose of the plane left. To counter this, pilots must apply excess right-rudder liberally to maintain straight flight. It appears you could've benefitted from knowing this little factoid of air theory.
Thanks for explaining pitch and yaw. Now I can set up my Hotas easier for Microsoft flight simulator. I didn't know what yaw was.
OOoooooooo Lopa nuk fluturon!!!
