I can think of something for both the variants: Parasol wing: in the early 1940s England transformed it into a light attacker, adding an enclosed cockpit for the pilot and a semi-open part for a machine gunner in the back. Store for external bombs and rockets is added Low wing design can be transformed into a high performance, sleek and aerodynamic racing plane mounting a GRIFFON ENGINE

Some ideas for "modernising for production" on the Parasol winged version: 1) Move the guns into the wings and have them out-bound from the reach of the propeller. Also add more of them (6+ 30cals sounds good for the era - but a minimum of 4). 2) Have the wings sweep back, just a little, but enough to be noticable (not curved though, it should to have 'straight edge' leading and trailing edges). 3) Modernise the tail up to at least Hurricane standards. 4) Change the prop to a 3 or more blade design with small individual blades. 5) Utilise the space saved by removing the guns from the body to make retractable front landing gear (always out tail-wheel is still fine). 6) Make allowances for the addition of a tail-hook equiped naval variant. 7) Fully enclose the cockpit. 8) Add a single underslung (under the body centreline) bomb rack - big enough for up to a single 250lb bomb (or multiple smaller bombs) - Underwing mounts not desired due to additional weight-stress (having multiple wing mounted guns is harsh enough as it is).

Stall speed doesn't directly care about weight as stall comes from airflow detaching from the top of a wing which is affected directly by angle of attack and aerofoil shape, but of course increased angle of attack pre stall adds lift so heavier on the same wings means sitting closer to stall by default and heavier may change the aerofoil for the same size wings. It could also be the difference in affect from the body on the airflow + or difference in prop wash affecting stall speeds

The Japanese still had a biplane in use in World War II by the US call sign of “Pete” the Mitsubishi F1M. But were killed off fairly quickly at the start of the Paciic Theater.

Iirc the brits successfully defended malta from me109s with outdated naval biplanes. Until the spitfires came to the rescue of course

The brits used Gladiators to defend Malta, and Swordfish biplanes sank the Bismarck. Italians had Cr 32 and 42, and many navies still had catapult launched biplane seaplanes. Pretty sure the Czecoslovaks and/or Poles used biplanes too.

Suggestions for an upgraded ww2 ready version of the parasol aeroplane: 1)Up the engine power to at least 746 kW/1000hp 2)3 bladed prop. 3)Gull the wings, (see Polish PZL P.11 or P.24 for how this would look) This keeps the general shape of the aircraft but makes them stronger, reduces the number of struts required and improves aerodynamics. 4)Retractable main landing gear, fixed tail wheel is fine. 5)More dakka, ideally not firing through the propeller (The RAF didn't really do that any more by WW2). Two MGs were a good armament in 1917, but not really adequate for 1940. Either more MGs or replace MGs with 20mm cannons. With gull wings you might be able to move the guns up into the wings now they're more firmly attached. BTW if you can't do 7mm, maybe try 12.7 that'd be how .50 cal machineguns convert to metric. Maybe 13mm if the game needs whole numbers? 6)Enclose the cockpit, or at least make the windshield bigger. It's not even up to eye level for that pilot. 7)Hardpoints for small bombs/rockets, let it be a fighterbomber. Parasol wings were good for ground attack as they gave the pilot better view of the ground. 8)Camouflage.

I would love to see a parasol fighter taken to the extremes of piston engine fighters, I can't see it lasting any longer than something like the Falco though

This looks like the Hawker Fury and the Fw-159 had a baby.

This is really cool, I'd love to see how it would look with floats. I think that the Suction which you were describing could actually be your craft tip stalling on liftoff, due to the ground effect (Ground effect increases stall speed), I've had this issue with some of my other aircraft in the past, and it can be fixed with longer landing gear

For ground stability perhaps widening the gear placement and reduce front braking torque and move the bias to the rear so when the planes tail touches down the friction forces would pull the rear down and back when you apply brakes.

Optimise the low-wing one for a merlin engine, and strap two mini jet engines onto the parasol one lol

The parasol wing looks more whimsical, but the low wing looks like a spitfire or something and that's really cool. Can't pick a favorite tbh.

I love the Parasol Wing or an upper gullwing like the PZL P.11 had. give us all those odd, weird and fascinating designs!

I love the parasol wing version, the fuselage is incredibly smooth, and well i just love it 😂 the livery is awesome. Keep making Flyout videos please!

I'm fairly sure the wing suction thing is because propellers spin and cause torque when taking off and landing.

The parasol wing plane would make a great scout fighter, the wings being at the top lets the pilot see alot more under them, whereas the mid/low wings have that huge blindspot.

Both look great! Make a video about turning the high wing design into an interwar fighter, and an other video about making the low wing design into a racer!

whenever patchbits uploads i do the YIPPEEE sound effect

Some WW2 seaplane bombers were also parasol wings like the PBY Catalina If I remember right

It appears that the tipping motion on take-off and landing is a tip stall (not a bug) it is quite common since the last update, easy ways of preventing it is to increase wing tip cord (which shouldn't be more than the root), increase wing tip thickness and/or wash out.

This video somehow made me think of and want to see a modern jet fighter biplane.

Hey Will, I have an idea for a sprocket video. What do you think of having your audience sending you drawings/requirements for tank designs on your discord, and then you doing them in sprocket to your best extent? This is just a suggestion, but could be interesting, some interactivity!

9:03 I think what may be happening here is you have a higher angle of attack on a tail dragger when the tail is down. So it'll start to lift off but it's still technically too slow to fly level, so if you let the tail come up too soon it's basically stalling out and rolling over.

Would love to see you continue and expanding this plane I like the parasol plane best

My fave parasol fighter would be the PZL P.11

So now we need a jet powered parisol wing fighter.

Video idea: plane with high lift wings and large amounts of missiles. To the brim. You must carry as many air to air missiles.

I would love to see more vice on you making planes also reviewing fan creations

love the commentary

This looks like a pretty cool plane, imagine being able to import our creations into X Plane or mod them into Microsoft Flight Sim 👀.

Always a good day when there's a new PatchBits video (:

Yay, more propeller planes.!

Am I the only one that thought the black lines on patchbits profile were eye brows and the black dots below were eyes😂

I assumed this was inspired by the FW 159. That was a 30s era fighter that had an online engine and retractable landing gear

Nice

Why does the propeller spin the wrong way? 😂 and quick tip for the trim: not sure if it works in game, but irl you can angle the engine slightly to the side to help counter the torque or sometimes add a little extra weight to one wing. The wingtip sucking down is basically just the result of the big engine and very big propeller plus a high center of mass

I think the fw-159 is something similar to what you are trying to do

I kinda want both as it would be super cool comparison

There is a universe where Big Bird died on the Challanger Space Shuttle, No seriously..

How about gullwing configuration, like Polish RWD series of planes?

pls build the F-35 lightning

I dont know how you feel about replicating designs but i would love if you could try and recreate the cac ca-23 which is an australian jet from the 50s that sadly never reached flight testing

Small thing but inline and v eng8nes are w very different things an inline is a row of pistons making an I shape thus inline, a v engibe is 2 rows of pistons connected with 1 crankshaft makihg a V shape.

In cars, yes. In aircraft, inline can be used for V, H, boxer, and other types of engine where the cylinders are arranged in straight banks.

Didn’t catch on? You must be joking. The parasol wing was very popular in the interbellum period. Or alternatively sesquiplane. The fact that the parasol wing wasn’t popular in Britain doesn’t make it something that didn’t work or catch on.
