Really curious that you still have NordVPN as a sponsor...they spend millions on advertising but can't keep their own security or audit the third partys that they contract to. I understand with such a big operation that you need to keep the budget in the green but promoting a company that had such an issue is questionable

Love this video, just good vibes all over it! Hey, how about a belly fpv camera (and a second operator) making the drop more precise (and cinematic)?
In WWII, bombers would drop bombs at low altitude so they would skip over the water and hit German dams, then explode. You should drop pumpkins over water so see how far they would skip too!
15:20 that missed high five tho! 😂😂😂
Now u need a bombing camera and a devoted bombardier, fill bomb bay with water balloons or paint filled balloons, drop on large canvas for a mural
LOVE watching these max gross weigh takeoff & climbs. I fly a heavy jet in real life and my favorite thing is max weight takeoffs with all 4 engines at max takeoff power.
You guys never cease to amaze me with your creativity and ability to make anything, with huge emphasis on anything fly! Props to everyone.
That's a classic FliteTest video. Guys doing epic things in their RC heaven. I envy you. A great one, congrats!
You should plant trees using cabbie for #TeamTrees, like if you agree to get them to see this!
The first drop looked like flares. That was awesome! Can you pls try to land a drone in the plane?

Awesome build and flights. Years ago I used to drop a G.I. Joes with (or without) parachutes from a modified Sig Cadet, would be cool to see you drop a battalion out of Cabby like an Airborne Ranger assault. Keep up the great work!
This episode is so interesting!! I’m working through my private pilots license and ground school currently. One of our lessons was lift vs. thrust. I found it amazing that in a climb you need less lift but more thrust. This episode directly correlates that. As you load more weight your using more power to climb, but also as the weight is increased the angle of attack does also. The physics of a model airplane is such a great visual representation of how we learn why we love them so much!!! Keep up the good work peoples!!!
Drop a bowling ball That's the final test

RC tank with a parachute on it. Carrie looks like a beast. You days do really good things with RC planes
DJIs are smooth but a proper chase quad still has to be a acrobatic class like the one that was right on the tail of the plane. Rule is if you want some cinematic or inspection stuff of the ground go DJI if you want video of style, fast / nimble chasing or air to air chasing go acrobatic. Thing is right now DJI recenently bought up a ton of advertising space from all the major flight related channels on you tube or gave them DJI drones and said "you can keep these just use them all time and hammer home how great they are" so for the next couple months expect to hear how great DJI from most of the channels. Mr. Steele recently called them out on some of their gear.

You guys should try to do a "Fulton Recovery System" with Cabbie!
I'm enjoying the drop videos! You guys should make it a series. Trying to find the best boom! Here are some ideas like big lego ball, 2 liter, fireworks, lights, gliders, bouncy balls, jumbo rubber band ball, basket ball, smoke bombs, and of course anything with a parachute!
15:20 HAHA RIP HERE ILL GIVE U A HIGHFIVE

Idea ‐ you have pilot and bombardier. Two separate systems. Bombardier has a sighting "system" for FPV. Together they have to work together to hit target.

6:02 sorry man... this is misinformation, we just don't have to register it, we still need "clearance for airspace." DJI has geofencing and aeroid on it, so it will show up on aeroscope also
Fit a Camera behind the Bomb Bay & make it face Diagonally to the Ground. When the Target comes in view of the Bombing Bay Camera, drop the bombs. Another suggestion, make a bunch of fighters with Airsoft guns & have a Dogfight in the Air.

Hello! 👽 salut! 👽 ¡Hola! 👽
I think cabbie should drop a bunch of drones that take off and race after being dropped. Drone pilots have to be able to identify their drone and get control in the time from drop to before they hit the ground :D
Awesome flight! It would be cool to see a large plane like a Grumman Goose or something land on water to load up and fly over to put out a fire. Or just drop water or water balloons out into a fire. Not sure if you've done that before. But great job guys! Love the videos!

i propose drop-ception! build a plane that drops a plane that drops a plane! OR! build 2 planes, and have one transfer an object to the other mid-flight, like an action figure or something. would be pretty neat to see!
“Is she dead dead?” “Yea she is D E D” LMAO
I think a Bunch of toy parachute toy soldiers dropping would be epic...
That big plane being followed by the Mavic reminds me of when hawks get chased by sparrows.
This was so cool but another cool idea would be to take a big stack of sheets of paper and drop it out and watch them all scatter every where
You guys should drop a bunch of those drones and control them like little drone scouts
Dropping these pumpkins gave me an idea.Ive looked at a lot of videos.And none one has done one yet.But can you guys make a video of a drone or a plane droping flashing signals (firework that just flashes like a welding arc)?Giving the look effect of multiple shooting stars? Over a lake or body of water of course for safety purposes.
You should make cabbie drop the little firefighting cars and make them parachute down
Hatsoff to sidewinder for that pumpkin drop shot..
That 400 feet you mentioned may be true for powered planes Josh but cross country gliders often go up to even 4000 feet. So the 400 feet limit would kill the sailplane hobby. I often catch thermals and fly sail planes at 1000 feet. Anything below 400 feet and you’re done with a sailplane the thermals are hard to stay in and small and weak. So there are still problems with that 400 feet.
so funny you guys did this...i fly an ultralite and at our grass runway airstrip we dropped pumpkins from 1.000 feet up. We dropped about 20 pumpkins that day, it was so friggin fun. The pumpkin would blow a hole in the ground about 2 feet by about 4 feet and about a foot deep. The sound from the impact could be felt in our chest. We also put a white towel down out in the field to use as a target to bomb. Let me tell you it was really hard to hit the target I will never forget this day...it was really cool and fun.
I love projectAir in this
Happy Halloween Guys!
The channel shows us love by the hobby ❤♥️❤♥️❤♥️❤♥️❤
I hope you guys consider requests.... I was wondering if it could be done (i really think you can do it) Build a flying runway or helipad. Fly a quad up and land on it. you could put strong magnets in the flight deck and a small piece of metal on the belly of the quad. You would definitely need the goggles on the quad in order to land it....but damn...would be so cool. I hope to see you guys do it. Please let me know if you will try. Thanks guys and have a super sparkly day !!!
You need to have an FPV setup in the nose looking down and buddy-box a "bombardier". Then the main pilot can get in the vicinity of the target and then turn it over to the "bombardier" who can then fly over with a look-down view of the target. Kinda like the Norden bombsight in WWII. Maybe stick in a SAFE receiver so it can hold wings level flight while the bombardier has the controls.
One of the most fun episodes ever!
15:20 poor dude 😂😂😂
Let's go Project air!!! Nice, James
I really wanna see a plane like this but HUGE static thrust and huge wing area. Something like a crzy coupe sized AVRO Vulcan (but with a victor tail). Huge wings with tons of surface area and an immensely strong connection to the body so unlikely to fold, Mount the motors on pylons to clear the wings, Try and get it to lift 10LB easily with a max of say 15-20LB.
I'd like to see a flat-spin plane. Like, have a duel motor plane whose rudder can go full 90 in either direction and whose motors can go full reverse. You could get some altitude, then go full opposite on each motor, and chuck the rudder full 90, then once the spin gets fast enough to gyro-stabilize, use ailerons for height control. Then, of course, straighten out and land normally.... or land gently in flat-spin mode lol.
Absolutely love y'alls videos!!! i am intrigued by flying RC's for sure.
Fun video, but you need to add a bomb site camera and a second person viewing through that camera , either telling Josh when to open the cargo doors, or the second guy controlling the drop. Easy to do and would be fun to watch. Maybe even a competition to see who is the best bomber in the crew.
Gotta build a C-47 that drops paratroopers!
IF Cabbie doesn't already have one, may I humbly recommend a receiver pack? The sheer scale and time spent on the airplane make a "failsafe" like a receiver pack almost a no-brainer in my opinion.
One to do next summer is build a second cargo plane, fill them both with water balloons, split into 2 teams and have a water fight. Bomb, land, reload, bomb again. Maybe with colouring in the balloons so you can see if you actually hit an opponent. Don't bomb from TOO high though.
I gotta wait 2 months for my Mavic mini and they just send you 2. Oh well it still did a great job of filming the pumpkin drops. Lots of fun.
