Q & A
What is the ARX 67a and who designed it?
-The ARX 67a is an unmanned drone designed by Black Nov, or November, as referred to in the transcript.
What type of weapons does the ARX 67a have?
-The ARX 67a is equipped with missiles, as mentioned in the script when the speaker says they believe they have missiles clipped into the drone.
What challenges did the speaker face while flying the ARX 67a?
-The speaker faced challenges such as the absence of a flight stick, flaps being up on the right-hand side, and the fly-by-wire system doing some funky stuff to prevent the drone from slipping side to side.
What was the maximum speed the speaker achieved with the ARX 67a at sea level?
-The maximum speed achieved by the ARX 67a at sea level was about point 9, which the speaker did not expect as they thought it would be a little bit higher.
What issue did the speaker encounter with the firing mechanism?
-The speaker had an issue with the firing mechanism where pressing the 'F' key did not fire the missiles, so they resorted to using the space bar instead.
What is the F-104G Starfighter and what was the speaker's experience with it?
-The F-104G Starfighter is an interceptor version aircraft equipped with IR missiles. The speaker found it a bit challenging to take off, especially with the massive drop tanks, and mentioned that it might be treacherous.
How did the speaker deal with the target drones at high altitude?
-The speaker planned to drop the tanks to increase efficiency and speed, then intended to shoot down the target drones. However, they noted that the target drones spawned at the same high altitude, making it more difficult.
What unique feature did the ME262 replica have that the speaker was excited about?
-The ME262 replica had a holographic gun sight that could be folded in and out, which the speaker found exciting and liked a lot.
What was the speaker's experience with the Warhammer Orc fighter jet?
-The speaker enjoyed flying the Warhammer Orc fighter jet, which was not very aerodynamic but accelerated quickly. They used various weapons, including 32mm cannons, missiles, and AGMs, and found it amusing and fitting to fly an orc fighter.
How did the speaker describe the submarine with jet engines?
-The speaker described the submarine with jet engines as the embodiment of chaos, noting its unconventional design of having four jet engines, a large cannon, and a fan at the back. They acknowledged the creativity behind the concept but also pointed out its impracticality.
What was the speaker's strategy for landing the submarine?
-The speaker planned to land the submarine by keeping a high speed and using the stall speed, which they anticipated to be not very grand. They also mentioned potentially using the large cannon on top to slow down, despite acknowledging the lack of air brakes.
Outlines
🚀 Introducing the ARX 67a Drone Mission
The video begins with the introduction of the ARX 67a, an unmanned drone designed by Black Nov (possibly a misspeak for November). The drone is equipped with missiles and the presenter, Will, is about to embark on a mission with it. Despite not having a flight stick and the presence of flaps on the right-hand side, Will is optimistic about flying the drone. The ARX 67a is successfully launched and reaches a speed of Mach 0.9 at sea level. Will attempts to fire the missiles but encounters a technical issue with the 'F' key. Despite this, he manages to fire the missiles using the space bar and successfully completes the mission by causing enemy SAMs (Surface-to-Air Missiles) to crash into the mountains. The drone returns to base without any major issues, and Will comments on the ease of landing the ARX 67a.
🛸 Challenges with the F-104G Starfighter
Will transitions to flying an F-104G Starfighter, an interceptor version with IR missiles. He acknowledges the challenges of taking off with the heavy drop tanks attached but remains hopeful. After a tricky start, Will manages to get the aircraft off the ground and plans to conduct a speed test before discarding the tanks for a high-altitude engagement with target drones. The F-104G reaches a speed of Mach 1.1 at sea level and climbs to 10,000 meters. Will drops the tanks to increase efficiency and speed. Despite the plane's imbalance due to a missing missile, he successfully shoots down two target drones. The landing, while a bit long, is successful with the use of air brakes.
🌪️ Flying the ME262 Replica with a Surprise Feature
The ME262 replica, built by Mr. McMuffin Jr., is the next aircraft Will flies. It has a detailed interior and a unique feature: a holographic gun sight that can be folded in and out by pressing 'Y'. Will is excited about the aircraft's speed and the surprise feature. The plane's speed is faster than the real ME262, and Will plans to use the 'presumably slow velocity' 30mm cannons for target practice. After a successful gun kill, Will lands the ME262 with ease, thanks to its good lift and brakes.
🤯 Testing the Warhammer Orc Fighter Jet
The Warhammer Orc Fighter Jet is a unique and visually impressive aircraft with a turbo jet design. It features a variety of weapons, including 32mm cannons, rotary cannons, and missiles. Despite some loading issues with the orc's head, Will is thrilled by the aircraft's design and performance. The jet quickly accelerates and breaks the sound barrier, even with an open canopy. Will engages in combat, using the diverse weaponry to shoot down target drones and tanks. The landing is dramatic, with the aircraft stalling before coming to a stop, but it is ultimately successful.
🚤 Submarine with Wings: A Chaotic Creation
The final segment features a bizarre aircraft-submarine hybrid built by KPS on Will's Discord server. Equipped with four jet engines, a large cannon, and a torpedo bay with air-to-surface missiles, this creation is a challenge to take off and maneuver. Will successfully fires an IR missile and down a target drone, showcasing the submarine's unexpected aerial capabilities. The landing is unconventional, with the aircraft's wheels deployed, and despite a rough approach, the landing is completed without major incidents. Will expresses admiration for the creator's imagination and determination to build such a chaotic and unique vehicle.
