RICHARD BROWNING - the real living IRON MAN 2017 Müllheim

The real living IRON MAN, Richard Browning flying in his exoskeleton suit powered by 4 x "JetCat P220" and 1 x "JetCat P550" jet engines in Müllheim Germany.
Eine aussergewöhnliche Show am 9. Modellflugtag des Modell-Flugverein Markgräferland.

Saw you at Dyson, truly magical to see you fly, you came across as a very down to earth ! real person with a great passion for this project. I hope you can come to Hullavington when its open.

Just to think just over a hundred years ago airplanes were invented, I can't imagine 100 years into the future! You guys are making history mate! Cheers

[philt]

Awesome, I would be interested to know how much thrust is generated by the jet strapped to Richards body with respect to those on his arms, But what a fantastic achievement.

[RufusJacson]

That is genuinely stunning...(...and the shot when he takes off! :O ... )

[thooke]

The level of control he has is amazing!

[mhaley]

That's amazing! I am amazed at how well he can control the jets without flipping over and crashing. Can he go higher or is that the limit?

[natedsamuelson]

When he first jumps in the air that could legit be a superhero movie scene

[ENGR-odft]

Amazing ! I assume a computer can easily control the thrust and calculate the force needed to balance your body just like a drone. You can free your hands from all that weight and use it for operating purposes. From engineering point of view, this project has incredible potential. Congratulations !

[NonsensicalSpudz]

its amazing, what i found more interesting was his helmet, looks like yah standard helmet, but its actually using AR etc which is so cool. basically your ironman

[zeroc]

What would be the result of adding wings? Is it possible to go higher if you gather enough momentum?

[cofffeecloud]

i wish i could be a part of this, this is what i dream about everyday

[somnathpandit]

THIS IS THE NEXT GENERATION OF HUMAN BEING!!!

[toothpik]

Is that an RC runway, or a runway for jet suiters?

[tappan]

Obviously physical conditioning is a MUST. To be able to support your body weight and then some. I was thinking, a flexible exoskeleton incorporating the fuel tank as a single unit to support the pilot vs the pilot hanging from his shoulders. It has to be exhausting. He's free to control the jets, whilst the structure takes the weight.

[adminbay]

Available on your local years from now

[drayvelharris]

you could do some effective crowd control with those hand jets

[Airguardian]

Pretty badass. All manual control? What about the throttle management?

[akyubachang]

Cool..but the hand cannot withstand al the pressure coming out from high power jet engine for too long. That should be controlled using some rods fixed in it

[flaviomanera]

Die Suche ist das, was ich mache, wenn ich nicht verstehe, was ich tue. Sie hat eine Montage mit bereits vorhandenen Jet-Turbinen gemacht, ohne sogar einen passiven Exoskelett-Kraftverstärker anzuwenden.

[МихаилВишняковский]

very interesting, only has a couple minutes of fuel at best, that makes it impractical.
