Fun fact: The E-wing's 3rd gun folds with the cockpit so the pilot can enter/leave, it can disconect from the ""back part"" that's conected to the hull, and the ""front part"" is conected to the cockpit It also doesn't make sense to have a 3rd engine in the middle of the ship because that's where the droid and other stuff are
No, the entire thing is connected to the canopy. Behind the Pilot there is an entire extra panel on the back of the canopy that extends behind the Cannon. The whole thing moves with the Canopy. with the cabling being flexible
Got to say eck I've been a long time viewer of the channel and I do like the more long-form content, part of why I really enjoy tapcaf, honestly when you did that like hour long Legends history breakdown that was a really great and I think you have a lot of fans that are would appreciate more content of this style
Toy Mechanics aren't exactly Canon. After all, I had a Death Star Playset as a Kid that opened up and became a Hanger in the Mighty Max style with miniature toys that were immediately lost.
❤ loving it all about videos of the whole basically lined up as a fleet if u clock , miss a few classes brilliant I'm from Manchester, but now I am allocated Toxtoth, in Liverpool 🫠 but thanx n have definitely liked and subscribed to your channel even though been watching u loads😱
The New Republic should’ve used the E-Wing Escort Starfighter in the Sequel Trilogy. In the Original Trilogy, if the Empire simply kept and updated the Venator-Class Star Destroyer, how powerful do y’all think that ship would’ve been against the Rebel Alliance?
wel with the venator it would depend on what kind of fighters support it would have in its hanger. if its simply ties then it had no chance but would it be tiedefenders who knows
I like the mediator model by the fan it looks like an arrowhead with jar jar binks face if jar jar binks had a unicorn horn sticking out his face in the back Parton the model.
The ARC 170 probably fell out of favor because it was built for fleet scouting. It's in the name, Aggressive Reconnaissance. It was sent out in squadrons from a fleet to probe areas they expected an enemy fleet to be operating from, and if found would be able to attack targets of opportunity and disrupt its operations while surviving attacks from escort fighters until the rest of the fleet jumped in for a major fleet action. It's visually based on a several different heavy fighters/light bombers from WW2, who had similar recon/strike mission profiles of 'go out and see what's out there, and kill it if you can. If you can't, call it in so we can kill it' . Especially in the Pacific theater with planes like the Black Widow night fighters. Not like the standard recon planes which were usually unarmed, who went out to find the enemy and report back, and not fight.
I also like Mom Calamari Cruisers, especially the Viscount. Eclipse could destroy probably all other Fan Made Battleships, and probably even the Death Star, the SSD, and even the Supremacy!
Thank you very much, I was hoping you would put out another one of these very soon and I'm very pleased to see that you did. I love putting these on my RU-vid on my TV and watching them at night as I lay down. Awesomeness and I can't wait to watch this tonight
1:39:28 Didn't Uglies also appear in Freemaker adventures? I don't think that series is canon (Most Lego Star Wars stuff isn't) but I think they definitely had some ships like that in the series
I just wanna say I love these 2 hour mixes. I love the Outer Rim Lore one as well. I do a lot of work on my laptop, both professional and personal, and its so perfect to just set one of these up in the background and cruise. Please keep these coming. Thank you!
I dont like the E-Wing. Every other fighter looks like a fighter and visually conveys their personality \ handling with elegance and a style. The E-Wing looks like a random person without ideas made something out of lego. Take the canon on the top, why wouldn't it be on the bottom? How does the pilot even get into the cockpit? No let's put it on the top because it's "different". etc etc..
The main issue I have with the E-Wing isn't the statistics and data regarding the fighter, but rather the layout of the design. Simply put, it looks like a 'lite' X-Wing. As in, it looks honestly like a downgrade compared to the quadmounted/S-foil design The biggest problem I have is the placement of the engines and cannons. The wing mounted engines are simply too far apart imo and would look better if they were center mounted on the fuselage. As for the cannons, I have several issues. One, wing mounted means you're going to have gun convergence, meaning you forced to engage from a certain distance for maximum efficiency. Anything too far or too close will result in the inability to train all your firepoweron one target, which can be critical. Two, the centermounted cannon located above the cockpit blocks line of sight significantly, meaning you'll have a greater chance of losing the target, which can be the difference of winning a dogfight or exploding into a massive fireball. Imo put the center cannon below the cockpit and that fixes the largest problem with the fighter.
Following platformwide attacks, RU-vidrs NEED to unionize (Formally or informally). RU-vid won't change. Creators need to force it to. Every youtuber ever just makes a little fuss, then rolls over on their bellies and gives up or moves on. It's time to stand and Fight. Your not the biggest or most well known- but you can seriously get this started. Gather the loud, the small, the massive- any youtubers who will to stand with you. I know it puts you at even more financial risk, but that's already am inherent risk of working here that gets worse every day. Take a chance. Stand up for yourselves. Just because it is a "1 in a million dream job" doesn't void your rights as workers. As people.Followinf platformwide attacks, RU-vidrs NEED to unionize (Formally or informally). RU-vid won't change.

Love the content! I hope the issue with the copyright troll is fixed now. So sorry for the lots of hassle you have to go through. Keep up the good work!
I love these huge videos. It gives me inspiration to make my own ship for a Star Wars campaign. I'm dubbing it the "star explorer." A star destroyer but shrunk down to the size of light freighter. Made by CEC and also drawing inspiration from the VCX-100.
The E-Wing unfortunately looks dumb with the dorsal cannon. It doesn't make sense and looks like it makes it impossible for the pilot to get in and out of the ship.
This is great, i just started X4 with the interworlds mod and im trying to catch up on all the starwars ship lore. I hope you have tried that it is so good.
Wow eck been while since I’ve darkened the door of your channel. Glad I have as I now have a whole new appreciation for the E-Wing and a custom Lego build must be added to my collection! Certainly wouldn’t mind another compilation like this in the future made the house work tolerable 😂
Masers, btw are described as having kinteitic energy where lasers do not. They aren't laserlight either. "Blaster" bolts are pockets of controlled plasma (I cannot explain lightsabers other than maybe a magnetically defined plasma beam)
The one thing about Star Wars that bothers me is the lack of the usage of droids in ship maintenance. If we were building real ships in our universe there would be 10 droids to 1 human for a variety of reasons. It's strange that Star Wars doesn't utilize that approach.
Always saddened the E-wing didn't get properly canonized in the new films. It looks like an X-Wing and a BSG Viper did the fusion dance and would have been awesome to see on-screen finally.
I still say like 3 Galaxy Class or 2 Sovereign Class Starfleet capital ships could decimate any Star Wars Imperial Destroyer 🤓 😂😂😂 Fun stuff, debating how many of whose fictional ships it would take to defeat somebody else’s ALSO fictional ships! 🤣
I like the overall design of the E-Wing, but I find some details a bit annoying: 1. Behind the cockpit there should be all kinds of ship internals. computer systems, ressource containers (life support, fuel, etc.), cargo space etc. However there is an engine sticking out the end, at the same time we see what the naked engine looks like on the wings. So judging from that, behind the cockpit there is not much else other than the central engine in a chassis. 2. The wing mounted engines are far below the centre of mass, resulting in a continuous pitch-up movement. So you would have to counteract that with maneuvering systems and not be able to use the full power of the engines. Also, the engines put weight on the edge of the wings, wich would harm maneuverability. I think the design would work much better if the engines were just 2, and mounted directly to the sides of the main body behind the cockpit. Also, the main central gun would probably look better if it was underslung on the bottom.
As someone who knows exactly what they want from beans. The more reasonably priced coffee advent calendars are always lacklustre. Obviously I'm sure some of the big roasters who have done it such as Onyx have a fantastic product but for non-coffee people it is an intimidating price 😂😂
What, a compilation video - how dare you - I do not support you like giving you a like *wink wink* or making a comment so you get more RU-vid thingy algorithm - I am upset with you sir - upset. But I could never be upset with the Corgi - and I think the E-wing is pretty neat as well.
I love the e wing model, but that third engine just doesn’t work. That’s where the shields, hyperdrive and astromech would go. I think it’s more impressive that it matches an A Wing for speed with just two engines.
One thing that would be very cool to see on large Star Wars ships like dreadnoughts is large long barreled turbo laser or ion cannons. Giving off an even more naval battleship aesthetic. The main most powerful cannons on the ship. Kind of like a super laser but like that fan made cannon ship, meant for stations and large ships. They could even fire projectiles.
Does anyone know the name of the Star Wars encyclopedia that some of these visuals are from? (Specifically the ship breakdown with lines pointing to the different functions and parts of the ship)
The only personal ship I trust is my beloved Sienar TIE/IN, she carried me through the horrors of that terrorist uprising, and Whills willing, will see me through the restoration of our beloved Empire.
Someday… would love to walk the hall ways of ships. Take virtual tour of all of the ships. For single pilot or small ships cockpit walk throughs. Someday…
Adolf galland got in a huge argument with herman goering about the me109's unviability as a bomber escort, for the same reason that the A wings dod here in star wars. This detail could show really good attention to detail on the part of the writers of that scene.
I'm curious who's going to be the first to finish this whole video? Post your finish time in a reply. (edit) listening at more than 1x speed doesn't count.
