@SledDriver the sky crawlers is an anime that follows a clone combat pilot named juichi kanami in a world that has found peace by staging a massive airwar at minimum over europa. i have even a plane from the movie uploaded (the someaka). but one disclaimer: the movie isnt perfect for every one. if you like the 1995 ghost in the shell movie or the first blade runner than should the movie work with you.
@Colonel1J2R3Wolf a waffenträger is german for a weapon platform. and the wordplay on its own would be neough to make the idiot tha towers trump furious.
@Datom ok but the challenge ends february first (but its german timezone so you can try to abuse this fact to your advantage aswell as my activity cicle: im most active at night).
@SledDriver die welle is based of a book. and yes i read the book and i saw the movie. quite erie how fast such a thing can grow but the most erie fact is that it has real bases (at minimum the third reich and the experiment the third wave on a american highschool in palo alto). but the other two not. maybe i should give them a go some time in the future.
@SledDriver we call such peoples simply: idioten, schwachköpfe, horst (its a name and a sinonym for idiot), versager, falchzange, flachwichser, dampfhuhn and many more names but all encapsulate and dumb kind of asshole.
@Datom so buddy ma challenge ends in 2 days. i didnt want you to panic but if you upload the RHB now it will count as an contendor. so see this as a reminder and kopefully sometime in the future you will make a better version or at last inspire someone to build it.
@SledDriver i can send you a link to a video with the scene. if you can catch around 75% of the german jokes ahd references in the entire movie you sh9uld be able to get loriot too.
@SledDriver from a german comedy movie called der wixxer: my grandfather warned me, my uncle warned me my neigbours warned me. i cant finish the joke in english but its the opening of the movie.... and a stasi joke.
@SledDriver i know this joke to. what is a trabant with a calculator in the glove compartment? the GDR answer to knoght rider. why did a trabant didnt drive on a green traffic light? because he stuck on a chewing gum. or alternative: the mercedes behind him has the AC activ.
what is the mains sign you sit in a trabbant sport? a pair of walking shoes in the trunk.
@SledDriver this reminds me of a joke in a donald duck comic. donald has build a robot and he shows it to his nephews but the robot only starts to smike and they joke about by saying: he smokes where it is so bad for the health.
@WOLF840 i think the eurofighter is better in combat (its basicaly a pretty bad flying plane with a suport computer that stabilizes it but the aerodynamic instability makes it maneuverable as heck).
@Strikefighter04 i am german. ok we didnt learn things about the planes from the era but i have so much basic knowledge about most of them that i can research every thing that is aditional needed on the fly.
@sofa2425 oh and the skyly d is from the game and doesnt uses a radial engine too. its a devil in the details until i saw a doku about the fw 190 i didnt know that the jumo 211 and its sucessor the jumo 213 (the engines of the junkers 88 and the fw 190 d) werent radial engines.
@sofa2425 the skyly doesnt use a radial angine and it is based two british planes (one of them is clearly the sea wyvern) and the big nothes on the engine upperside could be inspired by a spitfire but like i said: the skyly j2 didnt use a radial engine. by the way i have a the sky crawlers challenge up and running it ends on february first.
@Strikefighter04 i did my homework. the problem with this weapon mounting is that the drive shaft is the barrel of the heavy cannon and form this reason the engine has tobe mounted under or over the shaft and now how could you do this and why would it work witha fw ta152 but not the iconic fw190. ok the fw ta152 had the engine jumo 213 and that is a block shaped engine with a big, round cooler and its established that this engine wil work so back to topic. how could we mount a drive shaft cannon into a 190: you must make the engine compartment significantly larger so that you can fit the gun in and now you need a trans mission that delivers the engine power to the propeller and heres the why the fw190 never get this treatment: it was to short (ohentli i thought that the fw ta 152 had a radial engine too).
@Strikefighter04 so i am back from fact cheking: the version that used the ju 88 engines was the fw 190 d and this would be the only version on wich you can miount a drive shaft gun.
@Strikefighter04 sorry but this is impossible. the bf 109 used a v engine but the fw 190 used a radial engine and you cant mount a drive shaft cannon into a radial engine plane (otherwise the engine would be in the way and i know there was a version that used the engines of a ju 88 and they were fitting for such weapon but this version was never realy finished).
@WOLF840 the computer doenst like low temperatures. and france only worked on the eurofighter to promote theyr own rafale jets (this sint a conspiracy at all its a fact that france sabotaged the projekt).
@WOLF840 the fun thing about the eurofighter is that the computer isnt realy perfect for that plane. the problem is that this plane is unstable so that you need a computer to fly it but the computer in the eurofighter doesnt like low temperatures.
@drgunblood you did your homework. and its nice. this lil buddy was also used as an artilery tow and maybe in the lauchn procedure of the famous A4/V2 rockets.
@JettStorm thanks. if you want to palce a plane the hurry but there is one point that only some people know: i am german so if youre lucky you can exploit timezones.
@Nef680 ok i get only two entry with this plane but the i also know that the challenge went down very quik. im not shure if i ever found this plane if i woudlnt know kyusha on steam (he asked me if i have seen you plane) or if i dont would follow the bulk of the people who spotlightet it (the only one that i wanst following was theowlace).
@Nef680 here is the challenge and the first guy who liked it has build a skyly that was so beautifull that i changed some of the rules only to fit it in.
@Nef680 only say ok. or make a new upload with the challenge cockpit that flys behind it so that it is a sucessor. the other plane that got green light is from kyusha (the entry by Llama was rejectet because he used a minigun).
@JohnnyBoythePilot @Nef680 this plane flys great. and i hoped for such awork of art when i strated my the sky crawlers challenge it ends in six days and this beauty fits all the bills Nef680 please reply with ok if you want that this plane get into the challenge (it wuold be the second entry that fits the requirements).
@JohnnyBoythePilot @Nef680 this plane flys great. and i hoped for such awork of art when i strated my the sky crawlers challenge it ends in six days and this beauty fits all the bills Nef680 please reply with ok if you want that this plane get into the challenge (it wuold be the second entry that fits the requirements).
what the? why isnt this plane linked to my the sky crawlers challenge? i would like it to see it there (the challenge ends in six days and i get only one entry that isnt rejected. the other entry had a minigun and i said forbed them).
@WOLF840 and then they get theyr hands on german teck and developed the concept for the first deltawinged combat plane. i think the biggest diference between japan and germany are that japan is an island chain and germany isnt.

you wrote waffel wrong.
@SledDriver i know the story of das experiment. but now another question: did you know the movie the sky crawlers?
@Datom ok but the challenge ends february first (but its german timezone so you can try to abuse this fact to your advantage aswell as my activity cicle: im most active at night).

@SledDriver i can answer this question but only in german: leider ja.
@Datom so buddy ma challenge ends in 2 days. i didnt want you to panic but if you upload the RHB now it will count as an contendor. so see this as a reminder and kopefully sometime in the future you will make a better version or at last inspire someone to build it.
@SledDriver ok contact me after that.
@SledDriver here is the link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUyV837G9Y0 one of the videos in the bar next to it should be the entire movie.
@SledDriver i can send you a link to a video with the scene. if you can catch around 75% of the german jokes ahd references in the entire movie you sh9uld be able to get loriot too.

what is the mains sign you sit in a trabbant sport? a pair of walking shoes in the trunk.
@SledDriver some of them are realy hard to resist. what thinks a manta driver whe he is hitting a wall: nice brakes.
@SledDriver it is actualy from agerman comic. i am german.
@SledDriver this reminds me of a joke in a donald duck comic. donald has build a robot and he shows it to his nephews but the robot only starts to smike and they joke about by saying: he smokes where it is so bad for the health.
@SledDriver ok. but i want to know what acid you need to smoke in order to come up with 99.9999999% of you contraptions.
@WOLF840 i think the eurofighter is better in combat (its basicaly a pretty bad flying plane with a suport computer that stabilizes it but the aerodynamic instability makes it maneuverable as heck).
@CWhat016 what should i say more if you say all that is bad about this. its realy good.
@SledDriver did you notice that my post is based of the this what shall we do with the drunken sailor shanty.
but nice model after all.
@Strikefighter04 i am german. ok we didnt learn things about the planes from the era but i have so much basic knowledge about most of them that i can research every thing that is aditional needed on the fly.
@Strikefighter04 did you mean the skyly j2?
@sofa2425 oh and the skyly d is from the game and doesnt uses a radial engine too. its a devil in the details until i saw a doku about the fw 190 i didnt know that the jumo 211 and its sucessor the jumo 213 (the engines of the junkers 88 and the fw 190 d) werent radial engines.
@sofa2425 the skyly doesnt use a radial angine and it is based two british planes (one of them is clearly the sea wyvern) and the big nothes on the engine upperside could be inspired by a spitfire but like i said: the skyly j2 didnt use a radial engine. by the way i have a the sky crawlers challenge up and running it ends on february first.
what shall we doo with the crazy sleddriver, what shall we doo with the crazy sleddriver? let min build more planes.
@Strikefighter04 i did my homework. the problem with this weapon mounting is that the drive shaft is the barrel of the heavy cannon and form this reason the engine has tobe mounted under or over the shaft and now how could you do this and why would it work witha fw ta152 but not the iconic fw190. ok the fw ta152 had the engine jumo 213 and that is a block shaped engine with a big, round cooler and its established that this engine wil work so back to topic. how could we mount a drive shaft cannon into a 190: you must make the engine compartment significantly larger so that you can fit the gun in and now you need a trans mission that delivers the engine power to the propeller and heres the why the fw190 never get this treatment: it was to short (ohentli i thought that the fw ta 152 had a radial engine too).

@sofa2425 @MrDoolittle @Strikefighter04 but the fw-190 doesnt have a propeller mounted cannon.
@WOLF840 na both planes are competitors on the market. thats all that you need to know.
@WOLF840 the computer doenst like low temperatures. and france only worked on the eurofighter to promote theyr own rafale jets (this sint a conspiracy at all its a fact that france sabotaged the projekt).
@GlargiBoo you forget the gun that was mountet inside of the driveshaft for the propeller. but the rest looks good for a starter.
@Phoza he is palying on ios he cant use mods.
@WOLF840 the fun thing about the eurofighter is that the computer isnt realy perfect for that plane. the problem is that this plane is unstable so that you need a computer to fly it but the computer in the eurofighter doesnt like low temperatures.
@drgunblood you did your homework. and its nice. this lil buddy was also used as an artilery tow and maybe in the lauchn procedure of the famous A4/V2 rockets.
@JettStorm thanks a second time.
@JettStorm thanks. if you want to palce a plane the hurry but there is one point that only some people know: i am german so if youre lucky you can exploit timezones.
@drgunblood oh and at least an upvote for your bucket car.
@Nef680 ok i get only two entry with this plane but the i also know that the challenge went down very quik. im not shure if i ever found this plane if i woudlnt know kyusha on steam (he asked me if i have seen you plane) or if i dont would follow the bulk of the people who spotlightet it (the only one that i wanst following was theowlace).
@Nef680 oh and by the way: your plane is now official a competitor in the challenge.
@WOLF840 more or less yes. and i know that japan was working on a plane with the same wing configuration at the end of the war.
@Nef680 here is the challenge and the first guy who liked it has build a skyly that was so beautifull that i changed some of the rules only to fit it in.
@Nef680 only say ok. or make a new upload with the challenge cockpit that flys behind it so that it is a sucessor. the other plane that got green light is from kyusha (the entry by Llama was rejectet because he used a minigun).

ok lets look at it: it has a canadian flag on it and the colour sceme of a latewar me109.
what the? why isnt this plane linked to my the sky crawlers challenge? i would like it to see it there (the challenge ends in six days and i get only one entry that isnt rejected. the other entry had a minigun and i said forbed them).
