"Let's talk in terms of octane, even though the measurement system was not popular at the time. By not popular I mean that the octane rating didn't even exist yet." I don't know why I found this so funny.
WW1 aircraft did have wheel suspension ... of sorts: the axle was lashed to the landing gear frame with a sort of wrapped bungee cord that added some limited shock absorption. (It rests in the trough of the V-shaped struts, so it can move up a bit when the planes weight is on the wheels)
Some historical notes: * 10mm machine guns would be a major firepower advantage over the real WWI aircraft, which used either 7.62mm (Entente) or 8mm (German) guns, though I wonder if such large and energetic ammunition might have a negative effect on the plane's stability as a firing platform, not to mention weight issues. * Parachutes in WWI were exclusive to Central Powers aircraft as the Entente leadership thought being able to bail out would promote cowardice, and parachutes were quite bulky and heavy at the time. They also were not widely available even to the Germans until the war was almost over. * The total loss castor oil lubrication system was exclusive to radial engine craft like the Sopwith Camel, Nieuport, or Fokker Dr.I. Inline/V engined planes like the SE.5, SPAD, Albatros, Pfalz, Fokker D.VII, and your design did not have this problem, though they did have the problem that if you took even a single hit to your radiator you had about five minutes to find a place to land before your engine quit. The engine performance is also superior to almost any aircraft of the war, certainly beating the 180 horsepower Mercedes D.III engine that your design imitates. I would certainly not want to go up against this thing in a Pfalz or Albatros in Il-2 Flying Circus, I would have a minor advantage in turn rate but otherwise be completely outclassed. A Fokker D.VIIF with the 230 horsepower BMW engine would hang with it, but only barely.
9:21 Parachutes might have existed in ww1, but they were pretty much only used by airship/balloon crews. They were considered too heavy for aeroplane use as they basically weighed as much as a extra crewman and that was really more than most aircraft of the day could manage without major loss of performance. Which would make them uncompetetive in air combat. There was also a fear among some nations that giving their aircrew parachutes might diminish their combat motivation as they'd just bail out at the first sign of trouble! This existed largely because those in high command had never been IN an aircraft in their lives, let alone had to go to war in one.
They did exist, but they weren't exactly reliable. The few pilots who had access typically preferred to try and land their plane or just self delete if it was hopeless as bailing usually meant getting hit by the tail of your plane and spending what was left of your life paralyzed IF you survived the fall. Those Gen 1 Sky-Knights were made of something else entirely
castor oil sickness was a very, very documented thing but it was pretty much for rotary engines that needed the oil that'd be stable at those conditions - most pilots' autobiographies/journals/whatnot mention the stomach cramps and would often prefer foods that'd normally cause constipation in an attempt to prevent the gut-wrenching after-effects of flying
With the great war continuing for what felt like ages, many of civillians living in alliance territory grew weary and secretly escaped to safer places. One such safe spot would be the nation of Bo, physically seperated enough from the chaos to provide comfort. But as their great leader, king Bo Bo III the wise would have it, "there are no free snackies", and put immigrants into crippling debt. One unnamed German refugee was a young man with an avid passion for aviation, who, after a fateful encounter with a man named Hawk Ryede, was put to work in the Hawk locomotion company who was trying to spread its wings into the aviation business.
This is going to be an amazing series. The only other thing I could think of would be fun to see a history according to the lack of heavier than air travel 😂 or planes designed specifically to taking our godzilla or kong
1:18 it's hilariously accurate since first air to air combat consisted of pilots firing handguns at each other, Colt 1911 included. There was even a version with extended mag and a brass catching cage attached to it so that it wouldn't damage the plane
Some WW1 planes did contain suspension, though it was very rudimentary. It was usually just some rubber bands that applied pressure to the wheel's axle (at least for the Fokker D.VII)
The way the Ace Combat franchise generally gets around the real world politics is by having their games take place in the world of "Strangereal", a fictitious world to have wild conflicts take place in complete with superweapon bosses.
hello, i started playing flyout not that long ago, and I've been trying to make prop planes aver since, but i keep on having a problem with torque roll. does anyone know how to fix torque roll will the propeller planes, i really need some help xD.
What you should do for an extra safety instrument is just have a level, the kind with a bubble in water you use for carpentry If you can do that in this game
Definitely looking forward to more episodes in this series. About the castor oil, according to one aviation museum, pilots would typically rush to the bathroom after missions because of it, although there are very few actual accounts of mid-air emergencies. Those long scarves they typically wore would actually be used to clear the face and goggles of oil that leaked out of the engines
If you make this a series I suggest breaking it up into 5 year bits, Since an aircraft from 1945 or 1950 may still be in that “Transition” phase where they are using mixed propulsion jets. Or y’know 1945 rocket fighter that turns the pilot into a pile of goo.
This is such a great idea for a series man, please do some more episodes, also, thanks for making such great videos, you have actually helped respark my interest in aerospace engineering.
You should do a series(?) where you just expand the lore of the UFB, and cover tanks with Sprocket, planes with Flyout, and a space program or something with KSP.
I see you put ailerons on both top and bottom wings. If memory serves me correctly, that was a British style. The germans would only put ailerons on the top. So this might be heavily influenced by the german albatross, but the wings would have a more English feel, making it a mix of both.
Instead of jumping straight into WW2 for the next one, it'd be cool if you went a couple years earlier to the Spanish Civil War and Sino-Japanese War, making a late 30's design like the I-16, Bf-109, Hurricane, or A5M before going into the true WW2 designs like the P-51, Yak-9, Typhoon, and Ki-61.
I suggest you make a CAS aircraft, with a twin boom, hight placed wings, 2 counter-rotating turboprop engines, be able to reach 650 to 750 km/h on the deck and have a reasonable payload Edit: it would be a great plane for your proppunk series
I'd love to see more of this series. Hypothetical designs and technology evolution pathway are cool enough already. Combine that with with being from a fictional country, and all for fighter craft? Even better.
8:42 since they didn't have the companion technology to make most of those gauges yet, what do you expect? The only gauges they *could* have were a few status gauges (fuel, oil, rpm, fluids and temp) No radar or sensors for altitude or speed, no gps for mapping. And most of these developments were installed with out requiring them as they were all things pilots had been begging for
Could I use the side marking on this absolutely BEAUTIFUL aircrafts hull as the Air Force roundel in my books? Its got the same colors, and same pattern, but just horizontal.
Would love to see what the Bo people (Boziens? Bosites?) do in the wacky inter-war period. Also are they a naval treaty nation (and therefore, how much do they lean into Naval Air Power?)
Certainly an interesting potential series, even if the first plane is fairly generic stereotypical WW1 tractor biplane fighter instead of something more out there like a pusher plane like the Airco DH.2 or an early all-metal monowing design like Junkers J 2. But I guess that the point of this series, if it ends up happening, is to make your own take on a typical fighter plane of the generation instead of doing stuff like that.
Jokes on you, there's less than 80 years of actual fighter development, starting in the mid 1910s and notably hitting a standstill in the 1990s after the arrival of the raptor
so, how does one get their hands on this software. I go looking for "endless wars" and only come back with stuff about a flash game got it, ok, i'm dumb, this was done in Flyoutt
Would like to see you develop different classes of aircraft for UFB throughout the century and into the modern age. Creating a whole faction roster for in the case when the steam workshop comes into play.
We need this to be a series, I beg of you
Yes
It is a series check the description :)
Learn to read.
LIKE THE VIDEO!!!!!!!!
We all have to create hundreds of TH-cam accounts and like the video imma try and get my grandma to join in
Bo is the geneva conventions worst nightmare
Im all for it. Just a bunch of suggestions anyways. UFB pride!
Geneva suggestions

This series should be put in as an April fools event
@@Francisco-kv1ktBro I hope so

I don't know why I found this so funny.
because it was lol
I hope this series continues, and maybe after making the present day jet you could speculate what the future of aviation would be like.
in the future we will be riding AI controlled airfryers 20km into the sky!
I did not expect 2:29 that’s too real
Incredibly based
that line was raw ._.
Fuckin ON POINT FOR REAL

That plane looks quite powerful for a wwi fighter. You have an interwar fighter right there.
Accidentally worldbuilding a massive early-20th weapons exporter
You should also do a bomber with each fighter generation
(this also can be a separate series)

Literally subscribed just for this serie. I wanna see this Ace Combat like fictional nation evolve.
This is going to be an amazing series.
The only other thing I could think of would be fun to see a history according to the lack of heavier than air travel 😂 or planes designed specifically to taking our godzilla or kong
I'm scared for your first jet fighter in this series, but I will also desperately await it.
This needs to be a series
Just stumbled on this channel today. Lets see the next gen. I'm sold at this point.
1:18 it's hilariously accurate since first air to air combat consisted of pilots firing handguns at each other, Colt 1911 included. There was even a version with extended mag and a brass catching cage attached to it so that it wouldn't damage the plane
So, you’ve basically created Belka but wet.
Love this series can’t wait for more
pretty cool idea, would love to see a continuation of this series.
That's such a good idea for a series, have my like and hopefully we'll see it to the end !
Some WW1 planes did contain suspension, though it was very rudimentary. It was usually just some rubber bands that applied pressure to the wheel's axle (at least for the Fokker D.VII)
this idea seems very fun to watch please do a part 2
Eyo I’m early for once! Epic vid time
first, also i love your videos
The way the Ace Combat franchise generally gets around the real world politics is by having their games take place in the world of "Strangereal", a fictitious world to have wild conflicts take place in complete with superweapon bosses.
Really need a part 2 for this! Insanely interested to see the UFB's technological supremacy take hold! :D
actually some planes had suspensions like the Fokker D.VII but they were like rubber bands mounted in the wheels
hello, i started playing flyout not that long ago, and I've been trying to make prop planes aver since, but i keep on having a problem with torque roll.
does anyone know how to fix torque roll will the propeller planes, i really need some help xD.
war is human nature, a lot of how technology developed is reflected by this (ignoring the sex part)
What game are you using? For most of the video I assumed you were using some kind of actual engineering software.
Can't wait for a part 2!
What you should do for an extra safety instrument is just have a level, the kind with a bubble in water you use for carpentry
If you can do that in this game
2:02 just use Strangereal, it is a world of Ace Combat and definitely a place for airplanes.
This is such an awesome concept for a series! Can't wait for the next ep
I'm not an aviation expert so i didn't understand shit, but the video is good, 10/10
Cool video but I think you should also have compared it to other planes of the time
I would love a series like this
My dumb mien kept hearing and waiting for the beginning of miserlou 7:01
For anyone else who isn't recognizing the interface, this is Flyout ( not War Thunder :-)
Thx i think ima get it
I know some ww1 planes had instruments on the wings which I find cool
Fyi it says the game is War Thunder instead of Flyout :)
This is a really cool concept and design, I wish it would make it to bring a series. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
This is absolutely beautiful, the editing in this is just amazing. We do in fact need a series like this.
This is definitely really cool, you should continue the series!!
Waiting for a rear prop / pusher styler fighter at some point
Definitely looking forward to more episodes in this series. About the castor oil, according to one aviation museum, pilots would typically rush to the bathroom after missions because of it, although there are very few actual accounts of mid-air emergencies. Those long scarves they typically wore would actually be used to clear the face and goggles of oil that leaked out of the engines
this is peak, i absolutely love this
subbed and really, really hoping to have this turn into an actual series
I love the idea of this series and I'm already looking forward to seeing how all the other planes turn out!
If you make this a series I suggest breaking it up into 5 year bits, Since an aircraft from 1945 or 1950 may still be in that “Transition” phase where they are using mixed propulsion jets. Or y’know 1945 rocket fighter that turns the pilot into a pile of goo.

what game did you use to make this?
So cool to see how your designs and video quality improves over time, i remember watching you at 500 subs. great content dude keep em' coming!
More of this, please
Hope this becomes a series
I like it
Waiting for part 2
You should do a series(?) where you just expand the lore of the UFB, and cover tanks with Sprocket, planes with Flyout, and a space program or something with KSP.
This series is such an awesome idea! Please keep going with it

For everyone asking, the software/game is called Flyout and its available on Steam.

"Endless wars for profits"
Bro roasted the MIC and didn't even flinch
I suggest you make a CAS aircraft, with a twin boom, hight placed wings, 2 counter-rotating turboprop engines, be able to reach 650 to 750 km/h on the deck and have a reasonable payload
Edit: it would be a great plane for your proppunk series
9:41 muy buena comunicación XD

I kind of wish the UFB was real, lol. Technology would be far more advanced, and by now, everybody on Earth would have a common enemy to ally against.
Thank you for the content! Can you please build the Killswitch concept by PANSPATIAL?
For Part 2 can you try a Push Prop Plane like the XP-55 or J7W1? That would be cool to see you make it in detail and if it can fly.
Certainly an interesting potential series, even if the first plane is fairly generic stereotypical WW1 tractor biplane fighter instead of something more out there like a pusher plane like the Airco DH.2 or an early all-metal monowing design like Junkers J 2.

def make a ww2 plane 🙏🙏
Dude, this is a great project, keep it up!
I'm just waiting for David Hayter to recite "war hasn't changed". The only way to win the game is to not play.
You should do a video about you making a 6th gen fighter jet for the NGAD program as if you were a contestant!
so, how does one get their hands on this software. I go looking for "endless wars" and only come back with stuff about a flash game got it, ok, i'm dumb, this was done in Flyoutt

Wow youtube, I didn't know warthunder added the ability to make your own planes. This changes everything.
Would like to see you develop different classes of aircraft for UFB throughout the century and into the modern age.
Creating a whole faction roster for in the case when the steam workshop comes into play.
"We slap a land mass into the ocean and name it..."
- Osea? Belka? Federation?
"United Federation of Bo"
- So it's not an easter egg...
For the 1930s to 1940s, can you make a heavy bomber, like a Lancaster or B-17
How much would someone pay for one of the boxes that transported the wright flyer in 1903?
Well Ultrakill also had a long war that started since WW1, just saying (would be funny if there was a Ultrakill reference in the future)
I JUST found out what Messier 82, 87, and 81 are. Pretty cool
The wright flyer took off first on December 17th, 1903 120 years ago
And ofc UFB bears no similarities to any real life countries right guys :) :) :)
Cool.
Also cursed idea : bomber/tank hunter biplane, with three engines, gunner and some more in this age.
Pls make it a serie.
Make a tank in flyout
