Would you ever do a video on what a Quinjet from the Marvel universe would fly like? Or if it’s design is even close to reasonable?

They do this for fun and looks, even birds doesnt have backward wings because its against the flow of the system of flying on earth. We only see this in scifi movies flying in space and other planets having different atmosphere.😂😂😂

I'll admit. This is probably the hardest to understand KOreporter video I've watched, and there's nothing wrong with the presentation.

I think the x29 could be done even better today,especially with the computers we have

Aweso.e video, thank you. Could you please do an episode about how and why whe dont have a single perfect speaker/tranducer(or driver). It is not well known what is a point source and why ot ia so impossivle to make a perfect one. Would much apreciate it. Audio reproduction is far from figured out.

So basically, all the amazing technology we have today is because someone wanted the most easiest way kill someone in the most brutal way possible. Good to know.

I figured they made the planes just because you look badass

i wonder why they don't just use a bird version instead of a plane,

The WWll need to happened b4 for the US, UK and USSR can CAPTURE any cool NAZI designers and scientist, not to mention the Jew bankers of NYSE🤔
jaybajan개월 전
you got to admit it tho, the germans rocket and airplane tech was far head the rest of the world back in the 30's and 40's

how have i been watching videos and movies with planes, as well as learning about lift since i was 11, yet have never seen footage of a planes wings flexing from lift. i feel cheated

Facts are very good in the video, but at 6:20 about wing tip stall. It's not just about ailerons being stalled, if only one wing tip stalls it will produce a very large moment arm and very forcefully roll the aircraft. So for this reason wings are specifically designed to stall (and are better to stall) at the root where lift is lost with minimal roll effect.

I've actually wondered this ever since I built a model, x-29, that had reverse wings. I wasn't sure if they had printed the graphics wrong. Apparently, I never thought to check on this. Now I know. Weird how life goes full circle after like 27 years.

Does this mean no real life X-02 or the ADF-01? *NOOOOOOOOOO*

the answer is so simple: cause they look cool man!

Honestly I think wolfenstein is accurate, if the war kept going or Germany won we'd have laser and colonies on the moon lol

Videos like this make me wish I'd become an engineer or a pilot instead of an evil lawyer.

Gotta admire the German engineers.
