  • Another video, test flying Sams machine 1993

    This video is at lake George also. We had just finished Sam Polyaks gyro and was time for a test fly..... it was really good considering it was fairly HTL, but it had no vices at all (not like the test pilot)Sams machine was a 582 with 68" Ivo and 23" Jack Allens..... had a short beam axel with a spring steel spring each side, which worked very well as well. It had a sports car bucket seat and 20L plastic Gerry can each side under the engine.... later a 3rd Gerry was fitted in between.... I was about 130kg then, but the 582 had no issues...... it wasn"t as much thrust as my direct drive Sooby turbo, but very good, considering the strip was at 1850" asl.... cold day, so similar density altitudehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UWzCwtnoG0&feature=youtu.be
