This is looking surprisingly promising! Hopefully the wind calms down over the next week and I can get it to hit itself haha

Ebike 4.0 is working!
I will be taking it for it's first off road test ride in this weeks video! For those of you who are here for non ebike videos, what are your thoughts if I mention I'm designing a boomerang launcher? Not sure if I'm just nerding out, but the physics behind it is super interesting!

For those of you that spotted the spoiler at the end of last weeks video. This is the new design that I have decided to go for!

This was a bit of a pain to fit due to the disk brake caliper being only 6-7mm from the wheel spokes. So the pulley has to squeeze between the spokes and the caliper, then bend back around the caliper to allow the belt to run past the tyre. On the plus side, the CNC is cutting aluminium very well!

Ebike 4.0!
The V3 electronics have been reliable for over 400 miles, so it's time to upgrade the bike and drive system! This will be a long term project as I still need to experiment with CNC cutting aluminium and a few parts I've ordered have ended up on the slow boat from China.

Apologies to my +$5 patrons for again posting a late 'early access' video! These trebuchet videos take forever to research/produce! I've finished the edit, but it's now rendering and I will upload as soon as possible. Thanks

Mini 3D Printed Hovercraft (STL Files)
I'm sure many of you have been waiting for these files! I've spent many hours trying to perfect this hovercraft, which you'll see in tomorrows video. I apologise to you guys in the $5 tier, the early access might have to wait until tomorrow morning (UK time) as this hovercraft has taken far too long to develop properly and I'll most probably be editing until late tonight/early tomorrow morning!
Either way, I hope the instruction manual makes some sense and I look forward to hearing from all of you that build one!

Hi Guys,
First of all, thanks to each and every one of you for supporting my videos via Patreon. I know I have been saying it at the end of all my videos recently, but your pledges really help provide the freedom and time to produce the projects I upload.
Now, I've run into a bit of an issue with YouTube. Basically, YouTube will only allow me to enter a video description of 5,000 characters long. Currently on my latest video (will be live today), it's at 4,960 characters. I feel I need to bring this up now and mention that I'll be reducing the number of names in the description to just the $5 tier Patrons. I hope this isn't an issue as I'd assume the majority of you are here to receive the stl files, get early access to videos and just genuinely support my channel.
All of your names will remain in every previous video description that I have posted, also including this weeks video. But I will be changing it for next weeks video.
Thanks once again!
Tom

Air powered plane - Update
After making some modifications to the air engine, it is finally time to see if it'll fly! Will hopefully have the video uploaded by the weekend. Also, I'm considering making a tutorial just for you guys on how to print, prep and run this engine, who would be interested?
