1564 Experimental New Weapons
On the other side, in the ear of the test pilot, the voice of the test engineer came: "You have completely escaped from the locks...I am in charge of your flying posture..."
"I'm trying...the body is normal...I feel like I'm floating on the sea." The test pilot adjusted his state and said with a long breath.
"It's okay, just get used to it. The data you see in front of you is actually based on our space station's zero input, so it's just a reference." In the headset, the engineer said with a smile.
In the universe, where is up and where is down is actually relative, only after referring to certain places, there will be corresponding values.
Therefore, there is no such thing as inverted flight in the universe. Only where there is gravity is there a head-down problem.
This huge body that has been floating in the universe still looks very powerful, and it also looks much more delicate than the previous design.
It is actually completely different from the previous UIPA-1, and it can even be said to be two completely different devices.
In order to fly long distances in the universe, the original UIPA size is completely insufficient. The final improvement plan was to create a larger humanoid mecha to meet the internal design requirements.
In the end, the height of the entire mech reached an astonishing 16 meters high, and the equipment weighed 21 tons, which is definitely a giant.
With such a huge body, a large amount of magic energy spar and fuel can be stuffed in to ensure the long-distance running of the entire body.
Because of the reduction of a large number of attitude engines, the new experimental mech can travel far independently than the Z-type space fighters in service today.
Of course, another advantage is that the control of this thing is completely dependent on consciousness, and the reaction speed is more direct and faster than that of the joystick.
"Please try to fly forward slowly!" Inside the headset, the tester's voice sounded again.
The test pilot started the experiment nervously. He fantasized about running forward, but he lost control of his robot in an instant.
The huge robot suddenly took a step forward, and at the same time, the new thrusters under its feet also sprayed out silver fire.
Because the propellers were ignited suddenly, the huge body suddenly toppled over, and crashed into the escorting Exploration-class destroyer not far away.
The test pilot who felt that he suddenly started to spin also realized that something was wrong,
He wanted to regain his balance according to his habit, but who knew that this move made his flying posture even more weird.
It was an irregular flight trajectory at all, and this huge body just turned around and rushed towards the destroyer beside it.
The destroyer over there is not seeing well, and has already started to start the attitude engine and deviate from its own course. On this side, the test pilot finally realized the problem.
On the ground, he wants to move forward, and his brain subconsciously drives his legs to move. But in the universe, his thinking like this is equivalent to driving the legs and the leg propellers at the same time.
"Stop!" He stopped all actions, and several thrusters activated on the mecha were turned off.
At this time, he stretched out one leg and started the propeller in the opposite direction.
At a distance of less than tens of meters from the destroyer, the test pilot who regained the sense of control finally let his mecha start to fly away from the destroyer.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone was glad that there was no collision accident in the first experiment.
The latest mecha relies on the legs and the propellers behind it to act. In order to give it higher maneuverability, four small auxiliary propellers that can turn are added on both sides of the main propeller.
Manipulating these propellers requires nothing more than the mind, but this function relies on complex transformation processes.
Anyone who is familiar with UIPA knows that what drives this humanoid mecha depends on the human soul. But if you want to control the non-human parts of the mech, it is very difficult.
There is no propeller on the back of a person, so a change in thinking is required to control the propeller.
It's easy to say, but it's very complicated to implement: connect all the propellers to the computer, accept the control of the computer, and then simplify the commands and synchronize them with the human brain...
In short, it is actually more difficult for people to control these engines with their minds than to control the robot's body.
"The control of this thing is more difficult than imagined! But... On the whole, it is still controllable." After the test pilot resumed the control, he made minor adjustments and reported.
He can control the robot's body now, and he is getting familiar with the control logic of the thrusters under his feet.
Although he is not yet proficient, the performance of this airframe is already superior to that of the previous Z-type fighters.
As I said before, in terms of range, the new mechs are better than the old fighters. At the same time, the control performance of the mech is indeed better than that of the old fighter.
It is more flexible and has a longer range, which has already allowed the top management of the Alan Hill Empire to consider the issue of replacing fighter jets.
What's more, this new type of mech is more versatile than the old-fashioned fighters: the old-fashioned fighters cannot enter the atmosphere to fight, but this robot can.
Although the performance will be greatly reduced, but anyway it can! This ability is much, much better than not being able to.
"I'm adjusting and getting used to it... To be honest, I like it very much now. Compared with the old-fashioned fighter jets, at least in terms of vision, it is much, much better." The test pilot fumbled for the controls. This mech is reporting at the same time.
He knew that with his proficiency, this mecha would definitely have more advantages to be developed. From the second he piloted this mecha, it seemed that some things were preordained.

"I'm adjusting, getting used to it... I'm going to be honest with you now that I love it, love love that!
