Peter Sripol’s Home Built Electric Plane






Peter Sripol’s Home Built Electric Plane


November 20th, 2017

I have a young son who’s interested in aviation, so I knew about Peter Sripol from his FliteTest days. Peter’s segments were always our favorites on FliteTest because his builds were completely over the top.

When I saw that Peter was building a real electric plane with R/C grade motors, 3D printed parts and stuff from his local home improvement center, I was almost afraid to tell Owen about it—because I thought that Peter might have lost his mind. But since Owen has been building “planes” out of everything from logs to corrugated iron for years, I had to share this project with him.

We watched the videos of Peter building his plane and Owen asked if I thought Peter would survive trying to fly it. I said that I hoped so, and that, “Some guys are willing to take their lives in their hands to push the envelope. Peter is one of those guys. While what he’s doing might seem nuts to a lot of people, I think he feels like he has to do it.”

Incredibly, he did it!

Fly, Peter, fly!
