There are no VTOL nozzles or control thrusters in flyout. This is how we solve that problem Flyout Discord (JOIN FOR MORE INFO ON GAME): / discord [Join my discord!]: / discord Twitch: / messier82ap
it's what happens when you give 60s-70s engineers a few kilos of coke and tell them to make concepts and mockups. you end up with one or two feasible concepts and an inventory of drawings with specifications jotted out in ilegible handwriting. not really a shock for the opposition by the way.
@@hughmungus5033 the op stated "impress the other side" not "never saw service" neither the B70 nor B58 had much more of an effect other than forcing the USSR to adapt.
@@spazzey0 The B58 wasn't just made to impress the other side. It added a capability the USAF thought they needed at the time in order to penetrate Soviet air defenses. At the time the best way to do this was speed, and either extremely low or extremely high altitudes. That is why the U-2 flew so high. The B-58 was made to fly higher and fast enough to avoid Soviet interceptors before the introduction of high altitude SAMs.
@@prato_That’s a lifting body, not a flying wing. While the fuselage is technically a wing on both designs, a flying wing is basically just the wings of an aircraft without a fuselage or other non-wing features. A lifting body is using the fuselage as a wing.
@@elixer4583 The YB49 still dosen't count, the commenter most likely refers to things resembling lenticular aircraft ( not to be confused with the stereotypical UFO ).
Dude, I built something very similar (exactly the same concept, tri-tiltrotor with the same configuration) in KSP1 a few weeks ago. I couldn't get the robotics to cooperate but I felt confident in the design so I'm glad to see a variant in action. Nice work!
i would love to see one of those synchrocopters or whatever they are called. or your take on a chinook troop transport style vehicle. love the prototype look of this one and it gave me a bunch of cursed vtol ideas.
This gotta be part of the Prop Punk universe thing you got (i forgot the complete name and took a guess) that comes along as an early attempt at VTOL a bit after they made the first proper turbofan jet engine
It's definitely one of the aircraft of all time... jk, I think that it's somthing the navy really would have considered engineering in the late 70s earlier 80s. But it seemed to function really well! Great video as always man! Love ya Messier!
Messier don't ever change I always love the story's that you open with in the begging and I enjoy the amazing ideas you have for this game , thank for making my days
That is such a Kerbal aircraft, I love it! I have wanted to make a VTOL aircraft with a tri or quad setup. But... Especially after seeing this I will go with thrust vectoring like I planned from the start. Though who knows. Maybe I will give it a try and make my own version.
Yeah this is 100% a mid cold war era x-plane. It is comprised entirely of duck tape, paracord, and sheer middle finger energy. It exists for no other reason than to spend that excess tax money so they can get the same amount to play with next year. It does not care what you think, who you are, or what you do, it will single out your house out of spite and its deeply personal vendetta against you personally, then crash directly into your bedroom. I love. On a more serious note, the only reason why this design is that unstable in VTOL mode is the lack of a fly by wire system to balance the thrust of the engines. Ok maybe not the *only* reason but its the main reason.
Playing around with vtol ideas. And considering you now have experience. A Osprey inspired Vtol would be unreal, and might also fit into some of that "no jet engine" world building that is a gem to read and progress through BTW. Would also be very interesting to see if you've got the creative nature to build differently to that v22 design, or if efficiency bites the bullet and brings you back 1:1 with the v22 Frame. Otherwise love the videos, your content is a weekly commitment I don't see myself giving up any time soon!!!
It’s beautiful. It looks almost like an X-wing from Star Wars. This makes me wonder what could be done if you took the main design elements of an X-wing or another movie plane and tried to implement it into a (somewhat) functional aircraft in FlyOut? PS. Thank you for NOT telling us about future updates.
I would love to see an aircraft with an extendable pontoon float like what was found on the Blackburn B-20. I don’t know if this is possible in Flyout, but if it is I do believe you would do a great job and I would love to see your take on the idea.
A pretty interesting design, i really like it, i imagine if is possible to build a blimp in Flyout. could be fun trying. Btw i recommend you to lower the sound of the game a little, it's a little hard to hear you when the engines are screaming.
This thing is so cutsed I love it. In real life, all of the forces from maneuvering is placed on the wings and I wont be surprised if pulling up slightly shears them off the fuselage.
I was thinking how to suggest you to build a vtol and a day later, you upload a video of a vtol 😂 I love vtol planes (i wanted to be a harrier pilot, so imagine how much i love them) and have been thinking on a desing myself, maybe it could be worth for a come back to vtols concept: The fuselage would have little rockets on the side to push te plane upwards, making it a kind of vertical rato and short landing capable, but i haven't find a way to a proper static manouvering sistem to stavilice the plane while the taking off
Hi Messier 82, Love your videos. If you need any inspiration for new content, it would be great to see you build some movie, game, and TV vehicles. Just to start you off: - • Bubble ship from Oblivion • Mig 31 from Firefox • Little Nellie from You only live twice • SR72 Dark star from Top gun Maverick • F/A Talon from Stealth • Ornithopter from Dune • Blue thunder and or Airwolf • Thunderbird 1 and 2 • Eagle fighter from Elite dangerous
Somehow i get Quinjet (from the marvel movies) vibes from this plane it has nothing in common with it maby its the almost KSP jank and vtol. Still one of the best looking planes to date good job.
Here's a challenge: make an aircraft using the smallest of every type of engine. Do whatever you think is the most quintessential representation of whatever the engine is.
You have twice the engine thrust at the front than you have at the back. And the engines need to be equi-distant from the centre of mass to stabilize it.
this actually makes me think more about the Osprey than Harrier, just with jet engines. its actually kinda interesting, but its definitely a design that needs a computer lying it LOL
Drop the "V-TOL" part of the design and this looks like an awesome "Engine tester" aircraft - Something designed to be able to have the engine nacelles take off easily, so different engines could be swapped in/out for testing on a consistant chassis.
