the Tony Stark of kitchener ontario
So full disclosure this is a very unsafe idea.
Do not try this at home i am a trained professional idiot...so...enjoy
yeah
I'm the HackSmith and this is jackass

[loud hissing]
It worked!
[Pop...pop]
[loud hissing]
[hissing]
It worked
It f**king worked
alright so i can't believe that actually almost worked with two rockets putting
out about 50 pounds of thrust
it was a lot easier than I thought it would be to hold them and to be honest
we were thinking this will be the last test because it would be too unsafe to
do any more rockets
but after that I need to do more rockets
so stay tuned the next video
now remember that legal mumbo-jumbo from episode one?
well as it turns out if we strap any more rockets to my body
technically we're breaking some laws and unfortunately i'm not actually are a man
and I'm not above the law
so in the interest of keeping this project going
we've decided to do something a lot better
hobbyking has joined us and they're sponsoring the project with
electric ducted fans
these are basically mini electric jet turbines
now I know you guys were excited to see multiple Rockets going up
so was I but we never figured out that simultaneous ignition problem and it
could have been really catastrophic if I had three rockets per hand and only one
hand went off
so these electric ducted fans are actually far superior
the biggest problem of the Rockets beyond the simultaneous ignition was it
only worked for 1.7 seconds
it was never going to be a sustained flight more of a rocket jump rocket boost
whereas these electric ducted fans while using just two of these lithium polymer
batteries from hobbyking will last for a whole two and a half minutes. which means
we're actually going to have a flight runtime of a couple minutes which is
awesome
now one of these turbines puts out about eight kilograms of thrust which is
pretty similar to a rocket but again this can keep going and we actually have
throttle control
it's not on or off so we built this really simple
juryrigged mount to hold to my arm to show you just how powerful this is
let's take a look ... test number one
so we're gonna hit the drawing board and start designing the entire iron man
flight system mark two. you want more information on these turbines you can
click the link in the description and don't forget to follow us on Instagram Twitter
and Facebook we post pictures and other short videos on those platforms in
between our main YouTube releases so don't forget to follow us
thanks for watching
Did that work? It felt like it worked.
