Chapter 486: Second Test Flight
"What the hell is going on?"
Liu Lei scratched his scalp and smiled embarrassedly: "Brother Yang, that's the case, some of the technical parameters of the chips used in some of the functional modules we use have some problems, which are inconsistent with the technical manuals we got." Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info And we set the parameters directly according to the technical manual, so the error ......"
"Didn't you test it?"
"It's been tested, but it's too much, Brother Yang, you're in a hurry here, so ......"
Yang Chen shook his head helplessly, stretched out his finger and pointed at Liu Lei and said, "You, you're still so frizzy." Luckily, none of the electronics are burdened with important core functions, otherwise it would be a big hassle. β
Liu Lei stuck out his tongue: "I won't be ...... next time."
"And ......" Yang Chen thoughtfully: "Among these electronic products, chips from abroad are inevitably a little uneasy. I think you should design the chip yourself and refine it yourself. β
The chip thing, if it is refined in a refining furnace, is not a problem at all. Even the most advanced chips can be refined through a refining furnace. Of course, this method is not possible for mass production. But how much can a spaceship of the Star be used? It's better to refine it, so as not to cause trouble to the Star spacecraft because of the chip with the back door.
"Okay, this may take a few days......" Liu Lei frowned and thought about it.
"It's okay, I'll be able to wait for a few days."
Yang Chen nodded and said, "Okay, have you troubleshooted?" β
"It's all ruled out, and we have checked all the original chips, which can basically guarantee that there will be no failures." Liu Lei flattered and invited merit.
"That'll do."
Yang Chen waved his hand, once again drove Liu Lei and Bai Yu off the spaceship, and restarted the process of the spaceship taking off.
This time, it went much smoother, and nothing went wrong until the last second of the countdown.
"Countdown to the Take-off of the Stellar ......"
β10β¦β¦ 9β¦β¦β¦β¦ 3β¦β¦ 2β¦β¦ 1. Take off! β
With the sound of the system that collected Zhao Wanru's voice, the engine of the Xingchen finally reached the threshold.
I saw the air floating and twisting on the ground, a strange phenomenon caused by the force exerted by the engine to the air that caused the Star to float.
Because of the Centauri engine and the anti-gravity floating particle matrix, the Star does not need to taxi on the runway for a period of time like an airplane to break free from the Earth's gravity, but takes off directly from the same place.
It can be clearly seen that the downward engine main vent is emitting a brilliant blue flame, and this main vent is evenly distributed throughout the ship's belly. The ship remains ground-level when floating, so it does not cause a top-heavy imbalance.
Only a second later, I saw the hull of the Star slowly float up from the ground under the action of the engine, slowly floating to a height of twenty or thirty meters, and then the head was slightly upturned, and then the main nozzle of the engine behind erupted a blue flame, only to hear a whistling sound, the spacecraft accelerated in the air from scratch, and the short two wings lifted the hull of the spacecraft with the help of air buoyancy, so that the speed of the spacecraft hull was suddenly accelerated.
The next flight was similar to that of an airplane, but at a parallel distance of more than 1,000 meters, the height of the spacecraft climbed by more than 100 meters. And the ship's head is more and more upturned, almost perpendicular to the ground.
Immediately, the engines were running at full strength, and the flames in the vent at the tail of the ship became brighter and brighter, and the ship flew into the sky at a fairly fast speed.
Then a cone-shaped cloud burst open in the air, and soon a huge roar was heard in the air, which was caused by the speed of the spacecraft breaking through the sound barrier, causing sonic booms and sonic boom clouds.
The supersonic flight caused a thunderous roar in the sky. From a distance, even though the weather was gloomy and there was no sunlight today, people could barely see the small white dot in the sky that represented the spaceship.
Even the flight trail clouds, which normally can be used to distinguish supersonic flight, are almost indifferent to the point of indistinction. This is due to the fact that the Centaur II Fusion Hybrid Engine works completely differently from conventional jet engines, with very few gas injections and low vent temperatures.
Soon, the roar of supersonic flight was silenced and finally disappeared completely, and everyone saw the ship swoop down from the sky and fly back to the open space where the ship had docked before takeoff.
Then, under the action of the downward vector vent of the engine, the ship slowly landed on the ground.
The first test flight was finally completed, and it was basically a success.
Yang Chen changed the cockpit to a transparent state again, and at the same time turned on the data interface of the spaceship.
All the people involved in the development of the Stellar spacecraft rushed forward to download all aspects of the spacecraft's state data through the data interface, so that they could judge the various states of the spacecraft through these data, avoid failures, and also learn from them and improve the design.
Yang Chen was not idle, he also opened the flight status data, and discussed with everyone how to improve the spacecraft design, including hardware and software design.
Although the two sides were separated by a cockpit, the discussion was quite lively.
Half an hour later, the discussion came to an end, and Yang Chen contacted Xiao Su: "Xiao Su, has the production of the psionic missile I wanted finished?" β
"Rest assured, father, everything is complete, and the missile launcher has been packaged, and now it is being disguised as a cargo box used to test the carrying capacity of the spacecraft, and it is ready to be transported at any time."
"Then get on the ship right away."
"Yes, father."
Not long after, someone came over with three carts, and on top of these three carts were cube boxes with sides two meters long. What's inside no one knows. What Yang Chen told others was that this was equivalent to "ballast", which was a cargo box that was used to test the carrying capacity of the spacecraft, each weighing two tons.
In fact, these are two Flying Sword I psionic missile launchers, as well as thirty-six Flying Sword I psionic missiles.
The so-called psionic missile is a missile made using psionic technology, and this technology will even be used by future generations. Because missile technology is relatively sensitive, only Yang Chen and Xiao Su Xiaoguang know about the design and manufacture of this missile.
The "Flying Sword" I Spiritual Energy Missile, which integrates Flying Sword and modern missile technology, has a range of up to 100,000 kilometers with the support of the Tianluo satellite system, and is an atmosphere-space dual-purpose missile. It has a high degree of intelligence, with Tianluo satellite system and four navigation systems: self-navigation, Xingchen manipulation, and Yang Chen manipulation.
Its characteristic is that the warhead can be flexibly replaced, or ordinary high-explosive charge, or nuclear charge, or a variety of spell effect charges, in addition to sabotage, it can also be used for "rain", "treatment", "communication", "ambulance", "arming", "alert" and other purposes. As long as a spell can be cramped into a small space in the warhead, the corresponding psionic missile can be crafted.
Of course, spells that are not very efficient have no value in being crafted into psionic missile warheads.
After the "ballast" was installed, Yang Chen once again turned the cockpit into an opaque state, only the area in front of him was still transparent to facilitate piloting-although in fact, the sensors on the ship's hull could display all the external environment on the HUD display in a way of 360 degrees without dead angles, but Yang Chen still liked to observe it with the naked eye. It's just a matter of habit, not ability.
The previous test flights were only a preliminary test of the spacecraft's performance. In the current test flight, Yang Chen will carry out high-speed cruise, long-range flight, atmospheric round-trip flight, space flight and other flights, and also test stealth systems "radar and optical stealth", weapon systems, etc.
Turn on the engine, and after the countdown is over, the first thing to do is to slowly lift the ship off on the ground through the downward vector vent and the ship's anti-gravity floating particle matrix.
The next steps in the liftoff were the same as before, but this time Yang Chen did not let the spaceship hover in the nearby airspace, but directly entered the sky at an angle close to the vertical ground.
Watching the spaceship pierce the thick clouds and let the sun shine down, Zhu Wei lowered her head and answered the phone.
On the other end of the phone was the person from "Yang Ban".
"Yes, Mr. Yang has already piloted the spaceship into the air. Have the air traffic control departments, the Air Force, the Second Artillery, and the Ministry of Aerospace all been notified? β
"Okay, well, let them keep an eye on it. In case of danger, I hope they can help in time. β
"I know that if there is a problem with the spacecraft at an altitude of 10,000 meters or even in space, ordinary people will definitely not survive. But Mr. Yang is not an ordinary person, and the chance of survival will be many times greater. So, it's still necessary to be prepared. β
"Well, we don't have a test flight mission today. That's all, goodbye......"
As Yang Chen's assistant and the contact person of "Yang Office", Yang Chen's test flight reports were all taken over by Zhu Wei. So Yang Chen only needs to tell Zhu Wei when he plans to test the flight, what project to test the flight, and don't think about the rest, everything will be handled by Zhu Wei in an orderly manner.
β¦β¦
When Zhu Wei called, Yang Chen was piloting the spaceship, breaking through the thick clouds overhead.
There is a thick cloud in front of you, and you can barely see the road ahead, and the average person will get lost here. However, with the powerful sensors of the spacecraft and the powerful navigation and positioning capabilities of the Tianluo satellite system, as well as the radar particle matrix of the spacecraft, the current state and the forward state are clearly displayed on the HUD display, so there is no need to worry about getting lost at all.
Yang Chen simply transformed the entire cockpit into a one-way transparent stateβthat is, he could see the scenery outside from the cockpit, but the cockpit was in a dark state from the outside.
For a while, except for not being able to personally experience the howling wind and the damp dew in the thick clouds, Yang Chen seemed to be flying directly in the clouds.
How many years? Since the Trojan invasion, he had rarely experienced what it was like to fly to such a high place. Under the power of the Trojan invasion army, flying too high was completely to provide a target for others, and they flew at most twenty or thirty meters above the ground.
Now, it's finally back in the air.
Yang Chen took a deep breath, as if the dense dew drops outside were also deeply inhaled into the fog by this breath. The next moment, the spaceship lit up in front of it, and it had already flown over the clouds.
