When things were at their very worst: 2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy. Scientists will say it was a global illusion. Beware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again. After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way. Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet - will seem to rise from the dead - will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one. One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist. Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent. "Arab uprising will spark global unrest - Italy will trigger fall out" "The time for the schism in the Church is almost here and you must get prepared now." The Book of Truth.

Even if I had a brilliant engineering mind like this I'd never have the patience to make and put together all of these small parts. People like this leave me in awe .

I would highly suggest adding some sort of protection for the user. Like a lightweight wall between the motors and the user. I fear someone can be basically stabbed with shrapnel from any motor blades if there is some sort of catastrophe. You have to think like this. If one motor destroys their blades, those blades can cause a chain reaction of damage in other motors. That’s a lot of shards to throw at the back of a user.

This is brilliant. When we were kids jumping off of a roof with a poly sheet as a "parachute " and not breaking our legs as we augered in was an achievement. Loved this.

I just noticed this from the cross section of the duct you were showing and it makes perfect sense lol…the ducts you used are airfoil shaped, they are just circular! Literally a perfectly round airplane wing!

You may not know this, but brushless PWM motors have an optimal speed/blade pitch for differing densities. If you run them at their peak operating point per fan curve data, you can switch on and off fan banks and a constant RPM/pitch angle and optimize your current use for the same thrust, thus giving you longer run time on the same batteries. This is one of the reasons modern prop airplanes have both adjustable prop pitch and rpm.

But this mindset is what makes men do and achieve fantastic things and also fail miserably but women don't risk much

Four things you could improve. Although the last is more of a guess than an estimate. 1. Remove the middle vertical row of motors and props, they won't be as effective as your body blocks much of the airflow. 2. Use 25% larger props and engines (but with just the 2 vertical rows on each side) 3. Make ducts with a hexagon exterior and then you can have a more ridged frame and possibly a better more compact motor layout. 4. Add a slight (+ or - 10%) steering channel and have the right or left motors spin up or down slightly to give you better directional control?

I thought the same thing. As I go through the landings, I wonder if that doesn't make a danger to you or the craft if you fall. To reduce damage possibility to the blade frame you could gap, covered or uncovered, the ducts on sides as they reach the fans, to allow some pinch movement, with some risk of other things or personal parts getting pinched. I was also thinking put the fans in a vertical halo form, and just gapping behind him, but then I think you're risking running into size difficulties and controlling the chute when transitioning.

Looks like a project, but I would suggest erasing the fans in the middle of your body as they are shielded by it and can provide less drag as the other more exposed ones as the air flux is denser and can therefor provide more pulse.

That scene transition with the parachute at 3:30 was sick

Great video - the mattress is interesting :) I fly with electric motors and I can advise. The engines directly behind your seat are not efficient because you are unknowingly creating a closed system (it's about the same as blowing your mouth into the sailboat you're sailing on) and some sort of "confusor" on every engine doesn't really help. The classic paramotor with one large propeller does not have this problem, because its blades extend beyond the profile of the seat and there is no thrust in the center of the propeller. You have only two options - move your propeller "mattress" far back, or reduce the number of engines to 2 with higher power, which will be spaced apart to a larger spacing of your back (the diameter of one propeller should be 28 "). Both propellers should rotate against each other - it eliminates the gyro effect.No "confusors" or two propellers on one axis of the engine, because it has no noticeable effect. :)

I wonder if he took half of them off and removed the ones behind his body and spaced them out more if it would fly better and last longer due to less weight and better efficiency and everything you mentioned.

You don't want it too far back, it will try to twist the pilot, trying to get ahead of him. That could get very dangerous.

@@ChessMasterNate In practice, this is done by placing the propeller with an electric motor on a rod 0.75 m long behind the pilot's back. This propeller has folding blades like an umbrella, which expands by centrifugal force when the electric motor is switched on. In the motorless flight mode, the propeller folds down again like an umbrella thanks to the spring. In the case of a "mattress", it would be necessary to relieve it of the unnecessary things I mentioned somewhere and, of course, to move it away from the pilot's back (if he insisted on his concept). The partial rotation of the pilot to the right and left, as I noticed in the video, is due to the higher center of gravity, so something in this direction would have to change to prevent this. The pilot of a classic paramotor must be able to cope with the gyro effect of his propeller, so it is again up to the pilot and his experience.

Thank you for sharing Peter. Your channel is really inspirational. Keep it up!!

Please don't make a paramotor in 5 Minutes 😅

Ducts only work on counter-rotating blades if they are shaft driven and RPM matched. The 2 motor design is more efficient when the duct is off because outside air makes up for the rpm mismatch allowing the motors to fight less.

Janky and Sketch, lol, nice. I'm gonna have to watch more of your videos. Great build with how quickly you made it and it did fly.

Evil genius, minus the evil. This is just awesome. Don't know where you get your creativity but it is impressive.

I feel a lot safer with this multiple mini drones setup than those huge paramotors that can slice you in half.

And if one of your propellers fails u have backup

King thomson didnt agree with that until he went brrrr lol

I imagine that placing that many thrust sources together creates a ton of turbulence that interferes with each other and reduces overall thrust.

Lenoadro would be proud of how far homemade flying machines came

Never expected to see Tucker here. Started following him in mid 2020.

After I found out who you went training with I felt like I missed out by not learning with them this summer. Went with a locally based instructor instead. I too, live in Ohio 😆 Maybe I'll see you up there some time. Just watch out for me if you're about to launch some rockets.
