Does Rise of Flight have the Junkers J.I, the first all-metal ground attack plane?
I loved the look of this plane as a kid. It looks so... wonderfully steampunk
there is no reason to not love this elegant beauty.
I was thinking the 20mm would have been better on the front. Then I though that would probably be a problem for the prop having that long ass barrel pushing through it.
Well there is that, and then there is the 15 round mag problem. Could you picture having to reload every 15 shots like that?
@@MagzGTV maybe have a belt fed ammo box linked in front of the pilot maybe? Of course one of the problems with that is they had cloth belts instead of disintegrating link belts and I don't really know the layout of the plane.
@@telecleez The SPAD's both late production VII and early XIII's on a few had a breech loading 37mm cannon firing through the prop hub and was right on top of the Hispano V-8 between the V valley of the cyl's. The bad thing was fumes entering the cockpit was very bad and excessive every time the breech block was open up for reloading.
@@ChrisS-fh7zt cool.
MagzTV Considering the other design choices on that plane I can imagine an ammo can or a drum mag blocking the pilot's vision even further used.
For the record the Roland C.IIa is one of my favorite planes out there :)
Used to fly it way back in the day on Red Baron 3D. We had a nice formation set up when going after bombing objectives in online: 2 Bombers, 2 Rolands equipped with light bombs but mainly acting as gunship escorts, and 2-4 Fighters in escort. Honestly became far too effective of a formation especially with some of the guys we had in those fighters.
Landing was very daunting though... Learned to keep it right above stall speed until I came over the hangers (very often just a few feet over the hangers) of the Aerodrome and then cut the engine. Once she was on the ground she was meek as a lamb in RB3D.
We have missed the detailed talks about the planes as well.
Documentary level stuff here. And your cinematography is spot. I love it.
I believe this was Kiffin Rockwell's second confirmed victory. Kiffin was a member of the Lafayette escadrille, and the second to be killed in action. Everybody but one, too sad to attend, who was stationed at the aerodrome came to the funeral.
This is my favorite plane in the game, started my first 1916-1918 career in it!
I can't imagine what the Germans irl though of the Gotha with its insane adverse yaw.
I though you got more than one magazine for the 20mm? I remember me and a friend flying in it, us taking out bombers and fighter, switch positions every flight. I remember being able to reload it several times.
This is very enjoyable format. I like the emphasis on the historical background.
The other issue may well be the cannon shells NOT exploding due to the construction of the enemy aircraft (wood and linen = unless you hit something solid it may well just pass through.
Always love the RoF content
Are those squares on the side windows for pilot and gunner? Maybe they were there to give at least some visibility below the plane.
They are windows yes, they don't work at all for the pilot, the gunner gets better use out of them but it's more for recon work than anything else.
Roland Chonk.IIa
You are not wrong.
Wow good timing, I literally just downloaded this game after getting bored of Il2 and was lookin for unique planes to buy!
As regards nicknames for ww1 aircraft go, there is the well-regarded British S.E.5 fighter. For the distinctive enclosed canopy that it had early on (and was very soon discarded), it was referred to as 'the Flying Greenhouse'.
300fpm is actually a decent rate of climb for a brick
It seems like the Roland is a ww1 take on the P-47
The p-47 was still an effective fighter this doesn't seem to be.
Great vid mate, always happy to have more of this content :)
I don't know how the AI handles these in RoF but In Wings over Flanders Field, these aircraft are by far the most dangerous opponent you'll face mid war. Nothing else is close. The only edge my Pup has over it is maneuverability and climb rate and those things aren't worth much against a 2 seater. AI observers are extremely accurate in WoFF.
Unless I'm able to attack one from the front or lure one into ground fire, I leave them alone. There's no other alternative besides death. I was actually on UA-cam looking to see if someone has successfully taken one on, and what they did.
When I tried Newport C.71 Rus vs Pfaltz D.X. XIII I tried to shoot that Pfaltz D.X.III and I can't kill the pilot just damaging the plane and I follow him around his engine stopped because of overheat
7:13 Did you try adjusting the curves or multiplier for that aircraft?
But I certainly like the format just talking about a particular aircraft as a "MagzTV Showcase".
It's weird....I like it
Pretty sweet plane design of that era!
Nice video Magz! Thanks!
ITS MY FAVOURITE AIRCRAFT YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA THANKS MAGZ!!!!!!!
I really like vids like this keep up the great work
Wow.... Long time no see ROF
Wins sexiest plane of WW1 :D but WHY ?? those side windows , which you didn't mention ? If I designed that plane, the window would be in floor for bombing, the gunner would get the front gun too, the pilot would seat lower, using mirrors to see ahead.
I did mention, though not directly. . . Recon. It was a recon aircraft first and escort/bomber second. The side windows allow for some of the camera equipment of the time to be mounted and take shots while also allowing the gunner who was also the spotter to view the "target" in cover and take notes with some protection from the elements.
@@MagzGTV ...and I would place that exhaust pipe pointing downwards, not in the face of the pilot ...
@@RemusKingOfRome Yeah that's a poor choice of design, looks like the stack on a steam engine. :P
did you get this dlc from steam or from the rise of flight website?
Please do mate ! Love your content as always love from the yarra valley
Nice video, I enjoyed it.
Do you think Flying Circus is worth its $80?
Wonder what's next for rise of flight after the German designs are fully added would love to see the Austro Hungarian aircraft added among others
They still update rise of flight??
Love the "whale".
Are you using mods? Your trees look way better than mine do!
gonna be honest that back gun looks a little cursed to me
Hey man. Awesome. Are you using a mod for thr Trees? Or something?
Nope, no mods.
MagzTV trees look great hehe . Maybe I never really looked at them when flying .
Razor Blades
Oooo
A knockoff of the Bristol?
I would prefer rise of flight if it wasn't a "batteries sold separately" kind of ordeal.
The idea that you always have to be online, connected to some server in Russia is what turned me off. That and the lack of a full single player campaign.
I wonder if these guys can even play this what with the current problems with Russia?
Looks kind of painful to fly to be honest, haha.
Well that's all WW1 aircraft. I mean this thing was first flown only 12 years after the Wright brothers had the first ever powered flight. We still has a ways to go in regards to design :)
