Removing Water from your Gas Tank
In this subscriber submitted video, aircraft builder Ken Hill demonstrates his device and method for extracting water from the bottom of a container (fuel tank). This simple, home made tool can be used for scavenging water from the bottom of any vessel (gas can, fuel tank) where a drain is not available. Watch and enjoy this simple trick!

This New Project Won't Fly!
Просмотров 3 тыс.Год назад
After completing the Affordaplane, Jon embarks on a new project. This one is a little different - and may not fly when completed! But worth the watch - maybe? Let us know in the comments if subsequent progress on this project should be filmed. Otherwise, we will give the camera a rest.
Is 33 HP enough to fly the Affordaplane?

Polyester, Polyfiber, Dacron, Ceconite, Stitz, Superflite - Aircraft fabric coverings EXPLAINED!
or build a plane from old bike frames . or timber ..two by four frame or ...some way simpler construction just crude wood and plyplates as wings , would it work , fun vid for youtube safer to remote control with man weight sandbag in seat. or old plane wings on old car drive till lifts no propeller.
Thank you Prof Jhon
every electric coil device usually needs to be protected from back EMF. Relays, soleniods, etc.
You need to get a cheese grater for the big parts to eliminate the large amount and then you can do it with the sanding board after especially with the two pound mix it’ll make your life easier.
Thank you Prof Jhon
A nice STO aircraft .
NICKEL PLATED COPPER?
I’m not sure about experimental installations. However, STC installation manuals for stereo phones or mic audio/key cables use a 3-wire shielded wire and the shield is grounded ONLY at the Audiopanel. DO NOT use the shield as an audio low/return or ground line. I also agree with using isolation washers on the phone and mic jacks. Some of my repairs with static on the headset are due to the lack of isolation washers and improper use of the audio return line.
Hey jon we need new videos of affordaplane flying
Is there a part 2 to this? I don't see any link to a part 2 and I know others besides myself would like to see that video. You did a great job with this. Was there a cost savings doing it this way instead of using a telescoping antenna tower that has 3 or 4 sections and a hand or electric winch/hoist to raise and lower it?
Excellent video! Thanks!!
Just don't think the statement of you ONLY need ADSB when going in controlled air space is true, I'm not a CFI but my understanding is only class B need ADSB class C is controlled but you don't need ADSB
I land on my private property and when I look flight aware it say that I land at the Identifier of a private airstrip that is about 3mi from my house ( It does it every single time ) , so what is the accuracy of that system ??
ya
I´m speaking about semitubular rivets.
whats about rivets?
Alot of people left earth breathing that stuff in.
Just be careful of the "system" you use as some of them don't hold up well to ethanol FREE Autogas. "I'll never use autofuel," you say, maybe not but all it takes it one accident & there goes the paint job or glue adhesion. Also many systems must have epoxy primers as the glues will lift over traditional varnish or different non epoxy paints. Look up the problems with this issue before making your choice. There are many sad & angry folks that found out the hard way. I know a couple of them, so research and read throughly.
I have even 3 cats around the rig build😅
I was hoping to use one as an oil pump for a small air cooled engine to run oil for a cooler. Says 180°F but after seeing the white plastic valves ill keep looking. An all metal gear pump would be best but trying to keep the price down.. Thank you for the sacrifice and the time.
It has been 3 years, where is part two? Nice job by the way!
I would guess that the solid state oscillator is set to a frequency close to the resonant frequency of the mechanical spring/piston assembly.
Thank you sir 🙏🤲🙌🙌🔥🔥🤌🤌
poles attract lightning and with a gas tank sitting next to the pole i guess doomsday is coming soon
great explanation. so, just need to work out, what size diode to use in what system...?
Please do not discount the use of a glue like Gorilla glue. I have used this glue for laminates and have never been disappointed. It will foam out with squeeze out, but can be cut off with a sharp chisel or other type of cutter when cured.
If all you can find for fasteners at hardware store are sheetrock screws, go somewhere else. Sheetrock screws are for hanging sheetrock and have zero place in woodworking operations, like airframe or cabinet construction. Why? Because they will snap (break) and be unacceptable.
I have no plans to build an aircraft frame in this life, but ONE thing I learned many decades ago, never expect an end grain glue joint to last under any form of stress. Try to engineer a tongue and groove joint, with a form of gussets if possible.
any excess abilities will not be a "too much" as long as you can correct for weight balancing and not exceed the structural integrity of the airframe
good
Couple questions. 1. Why not use the flexible hosing in the entire aircraft for ease of installation, plus stronger than nylon? 2. Would it not be of the upmost importance to run the lines in such a way as to protect them from any possible snagging that may occur from, grass, rocks, or birds? For example: running them aft along the struts to protect from forward damage, not under or in front. Or Running them inside the aircraft as soon as possible vs running them under the aircraft? Does anyone have experience in trying to mitigate the potential issues that may arise with poor placement?
Rotax 582
18 Hp was enough to propel the Quicky Q1 over 115 MPH, with other performance a bit like a Cessna 152 (in the dog days of Summer).
it was useful thank you so much
Love the Midwest Hamms beer shirt dude!
Thank you for making those amazing videos, you will be remembered and honored for several generations to come
Where was the missing oil ? lf he replaced oil he must or should have noted how much oil he was putting in
You can thank the EAA for doing nothing also thank AOPA. I droped my subscription to both, that helped pay, 10yrs x. Subscription rate = almost full payment for inspection.
i ended up here because i ordered a 1/4" gauge and it was too large to fit in a 3/8" hole.
As of May 12, 2024, the website shown in the video is no longer operational (domain is for sale), but I was able to find the new website with a simple Google search. I can't link to it here, because RUclips doesn't allow external links in comments.
Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm looking into this company now.
Which engine use this plane
Inside headroom height please of this Frazerbuilt.
Did the Affordaplane fly? Please answer.
Thank you, helped me
Ive had one of these for over 10 years and they work most of the time but I would not put it onto anything that is high pressure.
MFJ just retired 😢
Kind of like the Wright brothers, maybe it’s best he didn’t takeoff. Lessons and bigger wheels.
Awesome
Exellent video. However, if pressed for time change the playback speed to 1.5x or perhaps 1.75x.
