When you thought you have seen all what is to see in DCS, this hits you right in the face. I don't care if the refuelling was edited, I applaud a brilliant idea behind this video. And you did line up to the basket while spinning, so that's really impressive. Hat's off to you sir!
It clearly was edited. First, there is no way you can control the aircraft while doing counter-clockwise circular spin being on the left side of the wing. Just think how could aicraft start doing counterclockwise movement with its bottom side first while trying to follow the refueling hose. Watch closely the trajectory of the hose spin and if you are accustomed to DCS, you know there is no way you can replicate that trajectory with any aircraft. The second thing why it is edited -- just look at wing lights. It's off when they record the falling tanker, and they are on when they shoot actual refueling with added background spin.
@Roadmen I wish you could elaborate how the F-18 is able to spin counter-clockwise with its bottom part first while staying in the same position relative to the spinning tanker. Complete bullshit.
Thanks for watching guys! This took way too many takes, but it was well worth it. I’d like to start making more like this, so if that’s something you guys want, I’d appreciate a sub! I’m hoping to eventually hit 1K subs :)
When your bingo fuel and your over an ocean and the nearest refiling tanker just lost an engine and some of a wing and your only choice is to follow it
From now on, every time someone new applies to my virtual wing and says that they can't do aerial refueling because it's too hard, I'm going to show them this video and say, "if this guy can do THIS, then you can man up and learn to do it in level flight."
Alternate ending: KC calls "Return pre contact" right before it hit the deck KC pulls out of the spin at the last minute Hornet plummets to his death instead This is amazing, great job!
@@bravosix1611 yeah....no.... it didn’t.... you never actually made contact with a plane spinning around towards the ground... why the fuck would you lie..... you used a little bit of editing trickery to make it look like it was spinning. The only thing spinning in this video were the clouds lol...
@@KevinS47 Lol I mean... I dunno about other people, but I have no problem about it being cheaty and fake, to me it just looks so obvious and natural. The KC spinning out like that after a burst of machinegun fire to its tail centerline and of course without any damage to major wing surfaces... that immediately sells it, but it's needed for narrative. And he most probably animated the background for the very docking shots to make his job easier. And just went straight down with both aircraft, no spinning to make it harder. It's still cool because it's a good reenactment of the movie and even here the main point is conveyed, that they must dock - here because of fuel - or else tHe HoRnEt SpInS vIoLenTlY- ugh I mean that's bs but he may be unable to emergency land at a better spot than the middle of the ocean, or bail over a forest not a fun place to stay in cold water nor stuck on a tree canopy for several hours waiting for rescue. lol
@Vice Thanks for the support! I mentioned this in an earlier comment, but just to clarify what was edited, everything up until contact was completely real, but the issue I ran into is that when the tanker is shot down, the basket begins retracting - and it enters a state where you can’t actually interact with the basket. So even though I had landed the probe in the basket, it passed right through it instead of catching it - the only way I could finish the video was to green screen the scene where it’s taking fuel. Also with regards to the KC spinning after being shot, that’s actually the default AI at work there. You can test it out yourself, but in the current version of DCS, if the KC reaches a certain threshold of damage, it will automatically start spiralling counterclockwise out of the sky.
@@bravosix1611 It was cool nonetheless. Well done. What I though was funny was that the crew bailed out of the tanker. I don't think they carry parachutes in real life, haha.
@@bravosix1611 Wow. So what you're saying is that you did it correctly and ended up in the right place but the game didn't realize it? I'd reckon that's good enough
I have never been so ecstatic for a video before.....but when I tell you at 0:45 when the music started and I realised what you were gonna do I held my head and screamed "No" over and over again.....this was a masterpiece man props to you :)
Incredible flying! bravo! i thought you would just edit this some way but the fact you did manage to connect while spinning and diving through clouds is simply alazing. brilliant flying. This is even harder than what they weee doing in the film. you had to deal with increasing air pressure, winds, visibility issues, aerodynamics. none of that in space, making this all the more incredible. thanks.
@@antongazaryan2532 , maybe, but even in level flight it would be harder than an equivalent spinning docking in 0G, since the 1g down vecotr is spinning..
I can't even do a regular refueling and this guy does it while the tanker is literally spinning out of control seconds before they both would hit the ground.
I actually used to daydream about mid-air refueling in DCS with no time for caution soundtrack on during an engine failure on the jet (It was epic af just imagining it) but this video made the dream come true after a long time but WAYYYYYY more magnificent than I could have ever dreamt of... Definitely made my day and I really appreciate the effort you have put in, in creating this scene. Keep up the amazing work!!
This was really really epic and I got goosebumps. "Initiate spin" is one of my favourite moments in any movie and you really captured the intensity! Great mix of my fav things, Interstellar and DCS!
I've always watched your content on my recommended but this... this is fucking insane. Dude, I genuinely enjoyed this and was actually asking myself how tf it would work. Good job man :)
The Goddamn “pushing out of orbit” and nearly hitting the water was amazing! And the splash of the Tanker as you flew away. Ooooooh my this is a masterpiece.
at the starting of the vid when i realized what you're planning to do i made a bet to myself that if he pulls this off that then i'mma sub to him. subbed. off to bingeing your entire channel now
I was not sure what to expect when I found this on R/Hoggit, but damn. 😂😂😂 Splendidly done good sir, the effort must truly have been monumental to get all of this to work.
I can't believe you even got this shot, even if it did take hours. That's insane, I have trouble even connecting. Granted I don't get the basket, I get the stick, but still.
As someone who is familiar with DCS and with video editing.....Im guessing that various shots were made in DCS and matted together to give the impression of refuelling when spiralling down, when in fact the refuelling was done in level flight and matted with another shot of the spiralling down.
I mentioned this in an earlier comment, but just to clarify which parts were edited, everything up until contact was completely real, but the issue I ran into is that when the tanker is shot down, the basket begins retracting - and it enters a state where you can’t actually interact with the basket. So even though I had landed the probe in the basket, it passed right through it instead of catching it - the only way I could finish the video was to green screen the scene where it’s taking fuel.
That's pretty legit my guy! I can barely refuel straight and level lol. You did it barrel rolling in a nosedive with no crew on board...makes me wonder, who press the switch to pump the fuel???
Liked the video well done! But you didn't plug the tanker that was shot down, good camera angle to keep the HUD out of view and choice of MFD pages, but you forgot the stby instruments 😉 I guess you filmed a normal tanking and added a rotating sky in post,
