The Swoosh was born 9 years ago in 2015, and ever since then I’ve been developing, revamping and and advancing the concept!

Sometimes its easy to loose sight of that fact, but here’s a visual of all the iterations, successes and failures that have built what I’ve done up to now #avgeek #rc
Sometimes I think about the cars I wish a wagon version was available.

Conflicting emotions as a long time Godzilla fan who's punk (at heart)
I remembered I can draw literally whatever I want. So here's Godzilla as a butch biker punk. Enjoy.

Sorry to get radical but I don’t think it’s my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I don’t like any part of it, so I won’t. I’m missing out? Good, that’s what I want. You’re worried about me missing out? That’s fuckin weird, man.

Designing a glider is one thing, but designing a glider for final construction? A little challenging. You've got to make it so that certain parts line up precisely, and that not too much work is done before hand.

Whats worse is I don't even know if it flies 😭

HMVEE at the airport. Didn't realize the CV axels of these things were so small. In many ways its much smaller then you'd think it'd be.

Linda Davis, a K-8 teacher in Savannah, Georgia, was killed in a car crash by a man fleeing ICE

Local authorities said they were unaware of any ICE operations in the area. "We have a no chase policy," a county chairman said

Here's something pretty awesome: a Kodiak 100 ✨float plane✨

Take a tall impressive vehicle and make it even taller and more impressive! Tremendous presence and epic engineering.

If he himself won't retire due to the multiple high frequency concussions, then perhaps being cut will be the next best thing.

That doesn't address the responsibility the NFL has to mismanaging those events
Schultz: Tua Tagovailoa remains cut candidate but Dolphins would prefer to find trade partner.

Latest flight with the mods: the slats definitely helped mellow out its characteristics. Its still kinda loose in the air, and despite the thrust body, on lower discharge batteries it still feels a bit underpowered.

Its so strange that this design has had so many issues.
Another flight day with Swoosh Reprise P.3 and another struggle at getting it dialed in.

I thought simply moving the trip strips would suffice but they had no effect.

Luckily, I prepped a back up and had veegee sets ready to add. They helped but didn't solve my issues #plane #trains #automobiles

Unhinged activities. Someone in their car decided to stand that car in front of the empty parking spots blocking them all instead of just parking their car.

Unhinger response: there was just enough space to get around them so I swerved nice and close in front and backed in to my spot 😝

Decided to go the fixed slats route. Now this isn't technically perfectly optimal due to the drag and vulnerability, but the wooden spar in P.3 keeps a sufficient portion of the wing from being given angle.

what if you had sketched a Polikarpov i-16 and had no memory of it. It may have already happened. You’ve been living your whole life since, completely unaware of your Polikarpov i-16 sketch. This sweet little plane is the secret you kept from yourself all along. Think about it

I'm only 22 minutes in and am recognizing that this is no typical FD video essay

Not just a longer watch, cinematic as heck!
This is what I'm gonna be doing all day. Basically forgoing all my plans.

BS plane designers if they're out there, my two options for addressing this issue is either give P.3 dihedral, or add fixed slats. Which do y'all recommend?
The one thing that may be the problem is the lack of dihedral. Thats the one difference between P.3 and P.2s wings. I thought it would be unnecessary since Antagonist doesn't have any real dihedral as a shoulder wing (though it has a more complex wing).
