Need a $78.5k lawnmower?

Then this might fit the bill.

Saw that earlier this morning. Be fun, right up 6PC's alley!

What's MTOW? Doubt it'd lift me

 

[Sac Arrow]

You can get an older R22 for close to that price.

Hey! I just got my Drone License (first person who says it's really a small unmanned aircraft systems cert freaking tificate gets this thing landed right smack dab on the top of their head.) Who can wire this thing up for me?

Lol. Watched the video. The "AD" that came up was for Accelerated IFR Training.

For those that prefer to let the grass grow long...

What could possibly go wrong?

(Hmmm -- N6172N "deregistered" in 2012 ... )

Ugh, why do people use Barnstormers?

 

[Velocity173]

Licensed as a SEL fixed wing???

 

[Zeldman]

Ugh, why do people use Barnstormers?

Why not?

 

[labbadabba]

Why not?

It's like looking for a green jelly bean in a jar full of green jelly beans. The site is straight out of 1994.

Maybe the wings need fixing?

 

[Velocity173]

Maybe the wings need fixing?

Or maybe it doesn't have a freewheeling unit, so when the engine dies the "wings" go fixed???

Dunno. But I can't imagine showing up at your checkride with something like that.

Ok, thanks for the explanation. I only like the purple jelly beans...

 

[Let'sgoflying!]

ha, exactly the phrase I used after I showed my wife and announced that I am buying one and before I scrolled down to your post.
So, if it does not tip over on you and crush you against the hot engine, it could slice & dice you as it spits you off. Sorry, I need to be more upbeat about these things!

 

[mscard88]

Sorta like a wish list, you know, like on Amazon.

 

[Pilawt]

It looks like a less-well-thought-out version of this thing.

And still is the best, and most successful aircraft advertising anywhere.

"Weight-shift pitch control"... oh boy!!! I think he has the decimal point in the wrong location.

 

[MikeFlies]

Saw that, too! Hah! It reminded me of all the old 50s era science projects the US military performed. Apparently back in the day, the idea of a "flying platform" was appealing to the military as a way to move troops into combat...or something.

I would argue that it may be the most prolific but not the best. Trade-a-plane isn't very good either in terms of layout but it is lightyears beyond Barnstormers. Barnstormers is still using frames for goodness sake. There are plenty of eCommerce sites that you can purchase out of the box that would be exponentially more effective.

Hell, I might just contact them and see if they need a CIO/CFO...

What's the difference? They get the job done, & nearly free.
Liking format is a personal thing, we use what we like, and Barnstormers gets used a lot.
the new format on T-A-P sux.

Yep, solves the business need. . .the dancing baloney was omitted, thankfully. Straight forward enough for the infrequent user, search is adequate enough, and the underlying architecture isn't relevant to the audience.
