Hey Fishyyy, I successfully flew my radio control Giant Scale ME 163 Komet a couple of weeks ago. Now it’s going to get painted. I’m using your video as a guide for my plane. Thank You.
Thank you for reminding me that the 163's engine could be shut off. I was just about to comment about it... Anyway it's always a pleasure to watch you and your friends fighting against the odds.
I just bought this game on sale for $2.49, and am excited to try it. I’ve enjoyed IL-2’s newer battles series, but the ability to fight against bomber formations and fly exotic planes is something that series lacks.
You have to admit the job of the real pilots was pretty hard with the combination of those high closing speeds and low velocity cannon. You had some success here but of course gamers have the luxury of practicing against ai for as long as they want. Another factor is in real life there is a real desire to survive so pilots probably weren't quite as daring as we have the luxury of being at our computer screens.
The faster you approach bombers, the better. You get hit less often. You also have to keep the escorts in mind. The faster you go, the less likely they are to short cut and intercept you.
@@Fishyyy tbf I think he was talking about stuff like the Ta 183 and that VTOL thing, but a 1946 scenario could be cool, Me 262 HG IIs vs British/United States Army B-29s over Germany? :D
Possible P51-pilot explanation at 23.30:
"There was a bee inside the cockpit"
AHHHH!!!! BEE!!!! HOW IT GET THER- *BOOM*
The komet is one of my fave planes ever man I love the way it looks
Hatte nun nur kurz Zeit für die ersten paar Minuten....Ihr seid ja ganz schön aus der Übung :-)
Me 163 is a joy to fly... Thanks for another good video.

I'm glad you didn't unsuccessfully fly it.
Thanks. It’s a fun plane to fly. I used fishyy’s video and freeze framed images to create an accurate paint scheme. It worked out well.
@@chuckcawthon3370 Hey thats really cool! Any chance you can make a video of it flying?

Der Aufschrei vor der Landung - herrlich! :-D

This type of scenario really makes gunners seem pointless
Beautiful
Totally Fascinating
I am sure that a Me 163 broke the sound barrier in WW2! Bang I said it!
Congrats to Marcom on his first “successful” mission 😃
Culkster in squadrons discord....or Clukster if you ask Killerflige 🤣
Saw where a Komet shot down a Misketo in a brief circle manuver.
When is me163 available?
Just like in real WWII, the Italian dude is just pretending to help his German ally. lol
It is very beatiful & cool video, especially attacking b-29. Hello from Russia!
Is that a mini propeller in the front of the plain?
Yes, it charges the battery.
No it flys the plane, the rocket in the tail is just for show
You guys made flying them look easy (except for the landing), which we all know it was not
What is the speed when you firing ?
600 - 1000 km/h
why do not you attack during climbing?
Because it's a bad idea, lol.
@@Fishyyy for me163 speed Will be the same, not? And you Will get doubled number of attacks for the same quantity of fuel

@Fishyyy A typical Me 163 tactic was to carry out attacks while climbing and diving through the formation. Games are different, though.
8:00 boy
More jets
And rocket aircraft :)
Are there no imaginary US bombers modeled in yer game? Seems anything a German drew shows up there.
Could use B-29s. The 163 did see combat, though.
