@crazyplaness yeah that thing with the canvas is kinda stupid, like that was never gonna work
The principle does work though, the plane could take off in theory
@126 it should work, there’s nothing preventing the plane from going forward. I imagine you could find the full episode somewhere if you search for it.
@Graingy they’re trying to see if am airplane can take off from a treadmill. It’s a 3 minute thingy instead of a 20 minute thingy so they’re cutting off the part where you actually find out, so it seems like just a couple of dudes doing stupid stuff for 2 minutes.

no way someone thought that would work

lmfao
@32 does it work or what?
Meme I can
@Graingy yup that’s kind of my argument
That sounds rather silly. It's thrust driven, unless the wheels are terribly designed surely it would hardly matter?
@Graingy I guess you could put it that way
@32 So overcoming the extra friction from the wheels to let the propeller move the plane forward?
@Graingy inspiration
@Graingy no basically they're trying to see if they can get the plane to move forward fast enough to get air over the wings.
@32 So they’re trying to see if 0 airspeed can take off? What?

What is going on? I can't have audio at the moment.
this the dumbest sh*t I have ever seen in my life
