Chapter 585 (2/2)
If a group of skeletons charging with rifles appear on the battlefield, it is estimated that the enemy will faint directly.
Sumei then said, ”we don't have to let NPC understand how the aircraft flies. They just need to know how to use it. The flexibility of these white skeletons is very good. We have trained more than a dozen skeletons to fly aircrafts, and the effect is good. They are all learning fast. ”
How dizzy! Skull pilot?
”So this three wing plane is the equipment for training skeletons to fly?”
”This is a junior trainer, followed by an intermediate trainer and an advanced trainer, and then a combat aircraft,” voma said”I think there are more than four kinds of aircraft here.”
”There are only three types of training aircraft. There are many kinds of actual combat aircraft. Because there is no decision on the final finalization, a lot of samples have been made.”
I looked at the three wing aircraft nearest us and said, ”isn't this trainer a bit old-fashioned?”
”It's just to be a trainer,” voma said ”Didn't the last three people you brought in converted Atlantis into air thrusters?” she explained? After we miniaturized that thing, we removed the external contour and changed it to a paddle type connection, so this imitation piston engine was born. This is actually a magic machine, not a real piston engine. ”
”Is it a magic stone?”
”Of course. There's nothing else to do with it. ”
I looked at the three-layer wing and said, ”if this wing is made like this, the lift is enough. Isn't the speed and flexibility lost?”
”It's designed to slow it down,” voma said
”Ah? You don't want to be fast, but slow? ”
Sumei explained: ”the power of the magic thruster is too high, the space on the plane is limited, and we can't slow down through a large number of gear sets, so in order to counter this too hot power, we built this three wing aircraft. These wings provide lift while slowing down flight speed, and they seriously affect flexibility, making the aircraft fly very smoothly. Although these are disadvantages for fighters, this is a primary trainer. It needs to fly slowly and steadily to train novices! If it starts like a rocket, how can we train? ”
”Well, it makes sense.”
Woma pulled me around the three wing aircraft and said, ”this is a secondary trainer, which is an intermediate training aircraft.”
This one looks better. This is a monoplane propeller fighter, which looks like the British jet fighters of World War II.
”This one is the same as the junior trainer just now, but it has fewer wings, and its wings are very narrow, so it's much faster and more flexible for training. Behind that is the advanced training aircraft
We went around the middle one, and the one in the back looked really weird. It looks like a big cylinder with two wings on each side, and the cockpit above is almost riding on it.
”This is a jet,” voma explained, seeing my expression. The last time you brought the three technicians to transform the air turbine, we made it smaller and lengthened the length of the pipe to become the middle tube. In order to save time, we directly welded a pair of wings on both sides of the engine. The upper cockpit is completely inlaid with nails, so it looks ugly
Rose said: ”I've heard that the German style is only practical, regardless of shape. Today I've seen it. It's like a garbage can with wings
Su Mei said: ”anyway, it's a trainer. What's the use of making it so beautiful? It's OK to fly.”
”What are those things?” Rose asked, pointing to the strange looking aircraft behind her? Why is it different from the one in front? ”
”That's an experimental fighter.”
We went to the front of this row of airplanes and looked at them. To tell you the truth, these things have nothing to do with my impression of airplanes. ”Is this a plane?”
”It's almost an airplane,” voma said! But I think it's better to call it a flying machine. ”
These things in front of us are not like airplanes at all. They are not only strange in shape, but also have no wings. I went around an aircraft three times and I couldn't find a propeller or a jet, which means it wasn't propelled by any known means.
Rose goes to one of the aircraft and knocks twice, listening to the echo. ”Pure steel? How much does that weigh? ”
”Because the speed of this aircraft is too fast, and the steering mode is very special, so the torsion of the body is very huge. If you don't make the fuselage stronger, it will not be able to withstand it!”
I said to woma, ”steel is still too hard. How about using crustacean shells instead?”
”We have considered using materials like Warcraft bones or crustaceans, but the cost of those things is too high, and the output is too small. It's OK to buy a little scattered. If it is produced in large quantities, I'm afraid it can't keep up with the consumption rate.”
”Mix it up. A part of the skeleton is used as the supporting beam, and the outside is covered with steel. By the way, next time I contact the dragon people to see if I can use the keel of the Dragon cemetery. It's big enough. One can change several aircrafts. ”
”Of course, but for the time being we can only find steel.”
I went to one of the aircraft and looked. It looks like a comma shaped whistle. The whistle's big belly supports the ground, and several retractable wheels support its balance. Behind this belly is a not too long tail, although the tail is there, but did not let the aircraft tilt, I think the weight is concentrated in the front of this belly.There are some small connecting devices on both sides of the ”whistle”, which may be used for hanging weapons.
Rose also looked at the aircraft for a long time, and then asked, ”which side is the head?”
”This way.”
Woma refers to the big belly of the comma, because the little tail is the real tail. But it looks like a propeller helicopter, but it doesn't have a propeller.
I knocked on the steel belly and said, ”this thing has no windows. How can the pilot look at the road when sitting inside?”
”That's not the cockpit!”
”Ah?” I was surprised to stare at the large steel fairway with a diameter of more than three meters: ”this is not the cockpit. Where is the pilot sitting?”
”In the tail at the back, you can see it when you go up.”
At woma's suggestion, I climbed onto the aircraft and saw that there were three holes in the tail, which were arranged in finished shape. This thing has completely subverted my understanding of aircraft. Even if it looks strange, even the seats have such characteristics. There are two holes side by side near the belly of the three holes, and a single hole is a little farther away from the two ahead, and it's just on the axis of the aircraft.
From below, woma called out to me, ”the two in front are the arms controllers' seats, one for each side, and the other at the back is the driver's seat.”
Dizzy! The pilot actually sits in the back position. This aircraft is really special.
Rose asked, ”how does this thing fly? With no propeller and no ejector inlet, is it the same gravity resistance device used by Eisinger? ”
”You're right.” ”This is the gravity resistance device used,” voma said
”Isn't the gravity resister unable to move during start-up?”
”Isn't there a special track principle?” voma said
”You mean the ball is actually a track?”
”It's not the track, it's the ball.”
I jumped down from above and asked, ”what is a track ball?”
”The caterpillar ball is a connected track just like the track, but the general tank track is opened into a trapezoid, and we wrap it on a steel ball and turn it into a circle.”
”How do you turn?”
”Have you ever seen a gyroscope?”
”Yes.”
”We use the same principle to drive the aircraft,” voma explained. Two steel rings that are just big enough to be nested cross each other to form a universal rail ring. We make the ring close to the outside steel ball and apply lubricant inside. The largest steel ring is just equivalent to the inner diameter of the outer steel ball. With the help of lubricating oil, the large ring can rotate freely in the steel ball, but because it is a round ball, no matter how I can't get out. The small ring in the big ring is welded to the big ring at a vertical angle, and then a rotor track is made in the inner ring, on which there is a gravity resistance device that can slide freely due to inertia and gravity
”Ha, I see.” I excitedly said: ”because the gravity resistance device can move freely on the orbit, and the large orbit itself can also slide, so it completely relies on inertial rolling. When the aircraft turns, it rolls along the inner wall of the ball, which is equivalent to buffering, and because of its own gravity, it automatically slides to the opposite direction to the direction of going forward. As long as the ball starts the track like propulsion function, it can drive the aircraft to move. What a clever design. But there's no computer here. How do you control when and which anti gravity component works? ”
”We don't have to control it.” Worma said with pride: ”although the anti gravity can slide, in fact, its contact point with the rotating shaft is unchanged. There are two free swinging energy brushes on both sides of the ball. This principle is the same as that of Eisinger's drive device. However, Eisinger relies on gravity to make the energy brush vertically point to the anti gravity device that needs to be started. This is the movement of the propeller Inertia and gravity work together to just keep the altitude and offset the inertia. It's really convenient. ”
Rose asked, ”but this can only control the attitude adjustment of the aircraft after turning. Where does the initial steering power come from and what about the control of the lift force?”
”That's easy to do.” ”Because we have three gravity balls in orbit that are connected by supporting steel tubes, their relative positions are fixed no matter how they slide,” voma said. These three balls are respectively equipped with magic crystal resonance device. We use this device to control a power ball to start up, and the control can be completed through the relative starting of the three balls. However, because the three balls are always rotating, it is very difficult to control them. We must judge the position of the gravity ball according to their flying attitude at that time, so as to accurately control the flight. That's why we need to have the pilot at the back, because that's exactly where the gravity ball is pointing. However, this design also brings a lot of disadvantages. For example, the pilot's vision is completely blocked. He has to rely on the guidance of the combat controller in front of him to fly. The pilot himself can not see anything except the dashboard”Terrible aircraft.” I sighed: ”this thing must be driving more than playing a unicycle!”
Voma said with a gloomy face: ”that's why I've been hesitating. I don't know if I want to produce this kind of aircraft. Its speed and flexibility are unknown. But it's too difficult to control when it flies. Especially when it lands, it can't be stabilized. We can only use the block to slow it down and fall into the net. The runway has no meaning for it. At most, it's for take-off One second. ”
Rose said, ”don't we have jet turbines? Why not just build jet fighters
Voma has just reached the limit, but I think it's the jet trainer you've seen. This game is not exactly the same as the reality, aircraft without computer assistance, jet aircraft can not fly, unless you can let three pilots like a person to operate the aircraft, otherwise there is no way to control the high-speed jet, this kind of low-speed and too slow, even Griffins fly faster than it. Moreover, the flexibility of jet fighters is too poor. In reality, it doesn't matter if an airplane hits a plane. Anyway, everyone is the same. But what we have to deal with in this game is flexible creatures. That kind of flexible aircraft is just a living target. As long as someone calculates the lead time, you can't dodge it. ”
”By the way, let me try it. I want to see what the difference is between this thing and a real airplane.”
Sumei immediately asked, ”have you ever flown a fighter before?”
”Ah...!” Oops, it's a slip of the tongue! ”No, no, I've just been on a tourist plane before. I think the real plane is like that. If you take this thing again, you can roughly understand the performance difference.”
”I suggest you don't try.” Fortunately, Sumei didn't ask.
”Why?”
”Because it's not for people at all.”
”But how do you know if you don't try?”
”Well, I'll go up with you. Anyway, the functions of the three cabins can be interchanged. If you can't control it, I'll take your place. Now I'm the most skilled operator.”
At my request, we finally decided to have a test flight, and even Rose came up to join us in the fun. But for the sake of safety, I summoned luck and pepper in advance. In case of an accident, Chili's mental field can help stabilize the aircraft. Fortunately, just catch us.
