    What are some of your favorite Flugtag moments?
  • @dnendion4300
    The idea of a slingshot mechanism for the final launch is incredible! Most planes have a hard time getting off of the ground due to low speed but they solved it!
  • The last one! Wow! I’m a retired airline pilot, and that’s a proper designed wing! Well done!
  • @iamgnome6230
    One thing I love about flugtag is that there are some teams that don't even try to build something that flies 🤣🤣 they know they're not going to win, so they have as much fun as they can
  • Having the large wheels on the launcher gave more heigth from which to launch from. That with the aid of a catapult and a properly designed wing resulted in a spectacular flight. Good job guys.
  • @projectdelta50
    Ive seen this competition so many times, and i always wondered why nobody built a secondary launch system like the last craft, who took advantage of the idea of being on an aircraft carrier and launching like one, the catapult launch was brilliant!
  • @NickLoganbill
    If I could bring someone back to life, I'd pick the Wright brothers to show them this. It would be so funny to show them how far we didn't get with flight and then be all like PSYCH!
  • @ostost9090
    I just watched a human get birthed then launched 11meters
  • @D42h0ut
    the last one is an engineering masterpiece

    RedBull is that popular kid at high school who always knew how to throw a good party
  • @UberMick
    That last one was bloody amazing! 😁
  • @spiritreapr
    Idk how I've never heard of this but it's now my new favorite thing
  • "I DON'T GO THAT FAR ON MY HOLIDAYS!" Sht had me dyin! 😂🤣😂🤣
  • @numberone-kb2kh
    The last one can definitely fly around the world if its have an engine
  • @gd1z
    Flugtag is one of my all-time favorite things on YouTube. Just excellent content.
  • As a pilot that last one was impressive, they spent a lot of time on that design but I wonder if doing away with ailerons entirely might've helped them out a bit. Very cool rod control set up to the control surfaces but it put out a lot more drag than ideal. Especially considering how much money went into it though it ought to fly well! Love the lifting body concept and the washout to the wingtip. They spent a fortune on it.

    1900's : we will have floating cars in the year 2000's 2000's:
  • 'Ter land ter zee en in de lucht' is a dutch 70's tv show which stopped in 2010. It had similar activities of contestants who would build their own machines to cross the water.
  • @Theravadinbuto
    Finally, at the end, something that could actually fly!
