On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
If you prefer more up close and personal dogfights consider the IL-2 Sturmovik: Great Battle series and experience intense WWII aerial combat over famous battlefields such as Stalingrad, Moscow, Rhineland and Normandy. Fight in and against Russian, American, German, British warbirds such as the P-51 Mustang, P-47 Thunderbolt, Bf-109, FW-190, Spitfire, Hurricane and rugged IL-2 Sturmovik attack plane. You can also fly legendary SPADS, Fokkers and Camels in WWI dogfights over the trenches of WWI and discover your inner Red Baron! And all of this can be experienced in jaw dropping virtual reality!
If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

Thank you guys for watching, I hope you enjoyed the World War I action, and some lucky Air to Air Pistol Kills, see you in the next one.
This is something new GS, and as always, keep up the great work
This is excellent, Thank You
Yeah, more of the WWI Please
Dude I have a video Idea, F-16 VS. Su-27
J20 vs f22 BVR
I don't think that was a German military issue sidearm. That was the "most powerful handgun known to man" chambered in A-10 30mm depleted uranium!
Holy crap, you made the sidearm a primary weapon.
Off-bore sight, not a problem, hold my beer!
In 1991, yeah 30 years ago, I was flying multi-player WWI air battles via a dial-up modem!! And that software companies tech support guy, who amazed me so much, led to my inspiration to have a career as systems engineer. Who would've guessed it? Still do it today.
BUT LOVIN' THE WWI VR!!
Keep up the great work......fun!
Fun fact: In old style rotary engines, the entire engine physically rotated with the prop, that gyroscope effect is why aircraft like the Dr.1 and the Camel were faster in a right hand turn. In a left turn the torque wants to pull the nose up, in a right turn it pulls the nose down.
Real engineering fanboi spotted 🧐
When I first discovered it I was like "tf?" But then I realized that it made sense
Am old enuf that basic flight at VT-3 was in T-28 Trojans. Just as stated above. You initiated a spin to the right, but left was a slow roll nose high. These were 9 cyl 1860 cu/in over 1500 hp
It’s also the cause of plenty of training accidents. You need a lot of opposite rudder, especially on takeoff, to counter the torque and gyroscopic effects of such a large mass rotating like that.
Does IL-2 simulate the WW1 radial engine operating at full power only, with blip switch to manage power?
Downing planes with a Luger is just insane. Whoever thought of putting that mechanic in game was a genius.
well its not so much they "thought it up"... they did that in real life in WW1. planes were originally unarmed spotter planes, then the pilots and aircrew started taking small arms with them to fire at the enemy scout planes. The developers earlier title, Rise Of Flight had small arms in the cockpit implemented too. Its just about being as most a realistic sim as they can make.
@@roadsweeper1 what I don't get is why they brought pistols and machine guns. When you're shooting at something reminiscent of a sailing ship's rigging, a shotgun is the obvious choice.
@@tykjpelk
I think shotguns were used too
@@tykjpelk because only America used Shotgnns extensively
For World War 1 battles in VR you could setup a fan to blow on your face for the extra sensation.
Yes I already have this lol I use the fan to keep myself and the Pc cool but it also provides a cool Vr experience
Fan linked to a little motor. Turns left or right as the aircraft does to simulate proper wind effects. For da immersion.
For winter scenarios, push the air through dry ice first.
if you are killed, ask wife to shoot you
@@PaulMcElligottlmao
I'm here for the WW1 dogfights. I watch most of your other genres, but when I see a WW1 I'm in instantly!
I can second that, only with an emphasis on WWII-stuff. There's just something about props.
@@acebone2 love the prop driven planes!
This prop VR stuff got me back into the channel. Love it.
best part of this video is you saying "BAM!" each Luger shot...as I am doing it also
7:56 "one of the worst ways you could kill anybody" i mean honestly seeing the types of gas they used and other stuff in WW1, id pay to die by crashing into the ground for a quick death rather than throwing up lungs
Von Richthofen commented that while he loved the maneuverability and rate of climb of the triplane, he hated to think what would happen when the enemy found out how slow it was.
where it all began. first they waved to each other. then an observer brought a rifle and started shooting. mounting machine guns brought sawed off props. 1916 the Eindekker Scourge. A fragile slow aircraft, but it could shoot through the propeller arc. It dominated until the Allies got their hands on one and discovered the Germans had designed an interrupter that kept the machine gun from firing when the prop was in front. Then everyone started killing one another in various successful and unsuccessful designs. By the way, first parachutes were used by the observers in balloons.
Oh man...would LOVE an entire series on the WWI fighter combat missions...
In VR you are lethal as heck...I wonder what you hit/miss ratio is
Keep em coming!!!!
If you Google "Achim Engels Fokker Schorndorf" it's the guy who builds the finest German WW1 aircraft today including several in Peter Jackson's collection. He actually owns Tony Fokker's original Type certificates and legally builds continuation planes with Fokker tooling. He is part way through building a reproduction Fokker Werke factory to add to his small museum. One of those very hardcore original purists, he uses and builds only reproduction 1900-era hand tools - no power anything. He will spend a month just building a wing spar box with a hand plane and files - no sandpaper even. He only uses gas stick welding with period welders.
Ah yes, the Red Baron. Famed pistol duellist.
Shouting "break yoself" at another pilot would be pretty amusing.
Watch yo prop!
It’s brace yoself fool
My great-grandfather was a French fighter pilot in early WWI before forward-firing machine guns. This is what they did, shot at each other with rifles and pistols and tried to either kill the crew or damage the engine or radiator. There was a French book written about it called “Au Temps Des Carabines” (“In the Time of the Rifles”).
Dude when I saw you pull that pistol up the first time I busted out laughing. Thank you for that cuz I was in a pissed off mood and it disappeared immediately.
Hey growling! You say WW1 Planes are the most immersive in VR. You also said that you tried racing in VR. But have you tried racing in old (50-60's) style race cars? The way your body is much more exposed makes it so much more fun.
As someone who was practically raised on WW1 Flight Sims and history: The reason why the Dr.1 has those turn characteristics is because of the spin of the radial engines! I'm not sure how it is modelled in this game but I've made it a tactic to cut the engine when I roll left so the torque doesn't kill the roll/turn rate. Especially good if you're against a live player who thinks "Oh I have you now/Oh I'm going to get away from you now!" only to get the nasty shock.
I feel like GS actually gets a pipper when he pulls out the luger, it's the only explanation.
4:13 reminds me of the old video “Get wrist control then Bam! pull out your gun” love how GS says Bam! Every time he shoots the pistol. Lol
These videos encouraged me to buy the WW1 addon. It is superb in VR. Thanks man.
I need “Ya hate to see it” and “It’s a R A T E fight” shirts in my life.
Thanks pal! You’re a good pilot but no one beats the OG!
Nothing like a good old fashioned drive by shooting to get the blood going 🤣
The "Red" Baron was a true gentleman and the founder of a lot of air combat maneuvering tactics. Pulling a pistol on you adversaries was like, WTF? Then you shooting it at long range was like, how would that even hit? Its a 9mm Parabellum. Then you learned to shoot it at danger close range and it became, may I say? Immersive AF. Well done you glorious bastard! 😉
The Red Baron was NOT a "True Gentleman" in any respect. He almost single-handedly invented "pack hunting," using full squadrons to go after fewer planes, and when he selected targets, he picked bigger, slower targets to get easier kills. He admitted in wring that he would aim for the heads of pilots, or - if there was one - the gunner or observer first, to get more kills. He was also known to specifically target fuel tanks to set planes on fire, burning pilots alive.
There's nothing at all glorious about war, and Von Richtofen was one of the best at his job. But his job, and the way he did it, was absolutely brutal. There was nothing ever gentlemanly about him.
A pistol? Talk about disrespect.
Not that I've flown many jets, but I prefer this kind of skilled close combat action, over having missile lock on a blip 30 miles out... Thanks for posting this very entertaining flight. =D
I'm excited as hell for Flying Circus volume 2, the new aircraft are cool but the added missions are what excite me the most.
Just awesome to watch, the tracer fire at night is insane! 😲 I just love the WW1 flight sims, so much more enjoyable, it really does tax your flying skills, and you make it look incredible 👏
WW1 videos are absolutely the best especially because of VR.
What’s interesting is that you’re shooting your pistol through your propeller without damaging or hitting it. Lol.
The night time WW1 dogfighting is really awesome yea you can keep doing that for as long as ya want ill watch every one
Lends credence to the guy that shot the pilot from a parachute. I think you could do it if you were practiced with the .45, I believe him.
Glad I got here fairly early- Love your videos; you're an amazing sim pilot man.
2 Morons idea: GS vs. Longshot in WW1 Biplanes, Pistols ONLY.
I'd love to see you fly the S.E.5.A . Historically , a fast plane with good climb and high ceiling. I reckon it might be your cup of tea.
Definitely my favourite too.
Rotary engines had a massive effect in aircraft . Sopwith tripe pilots said they could turn 270 one way faster than 90 the other
Glad to see you uploading more VR content!
I little while ago you did a spitfire vs bf-109 dogfight, could you do another now you're well versed in IL2 but this time with the MK XIVe griffon? Might be interesting to see if it can climb with the 109 without destroying itself.
Another great vid by the way.
6:33 lol straight up gangsta 😎👍
There was an air to air kill in Vietnam from a huey to a NV recon biplane. A CIA agent literally leaned out the side of the chopper and blatted the pilot with an AK. I fervently hope he got a little biplane stenciled onto the side of his rifle stock.
Picked up il2 with flying circus after being away from the series for a long time and picking up a VR set because of these vids. Love the content mate
VR absolutely changes the way you experience flight.
I had gotten away from for the last 5-6 years and it is just so much better than TrackIR
@@Silverhks i've been thinking about TrackIR for flight and racing for a few years, but never bit the bullet on it. VR has had my eye for a while but now there are more actual games supporting it ive been considering it, and this has made me make the choice
@@Silverhks the problem is if you have external buttons and switches on your desk you cant see them in vr
Love the VR videos from both world wars. Thanks for the great content!
Bro, I love the WWI content. It's so different from the rest of the stuff you do.
Few things are more satisfying in these videos than GS giggling over something completely and incredibly ridiculous he's doing.
The Luger's effective range is only about 100 meters, so a round will begin to drop pretty quickly. Good shooting.
The night fights were dope, more of those for sure
GS flying with that gangsta lean. Clack clack clack lol
The magical synchronized Luger!
Nice film, with a slight psycho touch with the Luger pistol.
Hey GS Great video! I'm at work and took a quick break and hit this one up and when I saw your hand pop up I was like, "Did you just give that first guy the bird???!!!" I was laughing so hard I had just had to back it up, and then I saw the shooting and it made my night! Fantastic fighting for sure. I remember the original IL game, and I still have it. Can't wait to get this title too. I just have to get my internet hooked back up. Hopefully next week. I see you are using the Oculus Rift S. I have the Oculus Quest. Do you think that can be used for VR for this game? Thanks for such an amazing vid, and I'll leave ya to it. ✌
GS- "I feel like the German Clint Eastwood."...."Go ahead make my flight!"
Alright here we go here we go check this out!...
Me : waiting to see what maneuver he ganna pull👀
... Pulls out gun: BAM...
😂😂😂
This is awesome! "The German clunt Eastwood! " 😆🤣
What i like about ww1 planes in these sims. is that everything is in slow motion till you get into a dogfight
When can we get a way to do co-op ww1 fighters in vr like they did before someone mounted a machine gun to a plane
Loved il2 an il2 1946 an forgotten battles but didn't know they had released this
...loved blasting he111 with high gore mods an trying to kill each crew member...then I discovered track ir an my mind was blown it made dog fighting just amazing. Got pretty good too. But not played for ages as the mods just wouldn't launch it looked amazing in opengl perfect mode
Loving these WW1 dogfights!
This was badass, especially the pistol snapshots. Would you consider doing a Fokker D.VII video?
6:35 GET SOME!!
Big thumbs up to that one! But you already know I love those WW1 videos and I loved the night too..
I would love to see you vs long shot is a duel using the pistols.
You have sold me on IL-2 Virtual Reality…Im a sucker for ww2 dogfighting, but WW1 has fascinated me, since I was a small kid, (& jets are way too impersonal)…
I wonder what do you use to aim the machine guns. The "X" made by the wires which is in the middle of both guns, perhaps?
Karamojo Bell was a Scottish explorer and elephant hunter! He was known to shoot his enemies with his hunting rifle while flying in WWI🛩
Definitely more IL-2 World War 1 content please GS.
Thanks GS, that was sweet. Nutty Luger shots man
Oh an playing this with full surround sound system is amazing you would be fighting off one plane an his wing man wud plug you an you hear the rounds hit behind you gave that extra sense of really dogfighting an crap your pants...my neighbor moved bedrooms cos of loud engine noise an machine guns lol..I didn't know till she told me a year later...I felt bad
So what we learned this time...
MG bullets = x1 damage
Luger bullets = x1000 damage
😂😂😂
More accurate description:
MG bullets = 1x damage
Luger bullets = 1x damage
missing = 0 damage
hitting the plane = 10x damage
hitting the pilot = 1000x damage
@@gascan that's not what I see in the video....
"And for my next trick, I'll shoot the pilot of an F-22 with my Sig Sauer after Jester ejects." - GS, probably
Thanks GS that was great. Love the night fight :)
FPS/Flight Sim!!! My mind is blown beyond recognition! 😳
I would have never thought that the title meant actual fucking pistol lmao. This was funny xd. Doing drive by shooting's in a world war 1 German Fokker is something from alternate universe.
Pretty awesome! When I get home I will have to invest in a new video card and a headset. Suffering from really bad sim withdrawal symptoms at the moment, it's been nearly a year!
Luger: exists
Growling Sidewinder: *wheeze*
@Growling Sidewinder - great vid! Curious side-note: What's your poison in racing sims? :)
I tried dirt rally didn’t really get into it but I enjoyed it a lot, mostly a time constraint
GS love the WW1 content. Its way more entertaining!
P08 Parabellum vs. USA Yeet Cannon? C'mon man!
Lmao Im glad this isn't real life because aiming like that especially with a pistol you're gonna be yards off 🤣 not even aiming down the sights and pointing up slightly lol but you pull off some great shots so wouldn't surprise me lol keep em coming
That was great! You’re a German John Wayne
I watch your video's all the time and yet I still end up in a turn fight. lol
What utterly Wonderful foolishness! Keep it coming🤣🤣🤣
Machine guns throwing out hundreds of rounds = He might go down. Semi auto pistol single shot = Down in flames! 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂 this made me even laugh more than the 2 morons series!
The triplane is just so iconic 🤌🏻
That side arm thought lol!
"BAM! BAM!....if you were flying an X wing you'd probably go "PEW! PEW!"
WW1 dogfights are my favorite content!!!
So now gs is a first person tactical shooter channel
WWI dogfights in vr: from my experience it is good to keep a barf bag close by xD
The sunset and night ones were so damn cool
From AMRAAM to Luger, the reverse cycle is complete.
If youre sittingin the air-conditioning with the fan on you and leave an open petrol can sitting in the corner of the room. Be pretty immersive.
Open your flights in tacview, you should be able to see if you connect with the pistol
The turning better one way or another was prop an engine torque as most ww1 stuff had rotory engines that span with the prop do made it harder to turn that way....it's like going full power on take off in something like a Griffin spit it flips over from the torque. It's quite challenging on full SIM mode with torque stalls an flutter on
0:35 Nobody expects The Spanish Inquisition!!! :))
fighting in the dark really is something
Dogfighting with a pistol... the struggle is real.
And, that is an off bore Luger for ya!
I love the inspiration taken from Wolfenstein 3D in adding the pistol!
Wow it's the first video where I see you shoot down a pilot with your pistol 😂
