The layout of the driver's seat of the Cid airship is actually similar to the car that is about to become a wreck on the streets of the holy city of Estali.
There is a steering wheel with an instrument panel in front of it. The only difference is that the foot-operated accelerator and brake are replaced by hand-controlled throttles, and there are exactly the same devices on the passenger seat. In addition to being used by the driver when an accident occurs, the passenger seat can take over immediately.
, the most commonly used use is actually for the pilot and co-pilot to take turns taking a rest during long-distance flights without having to change seats.
Simply put, the Sid is the kind of design where one person can control everything.
Taking into account the combat purpose and the complexity of control, the Gosbottom separated many functions and left them to dedicated people to control and monitor. In fact, this is a bit back to the original form of the sailboat, with the helmsman, lookout hand, and sail
Hands and other tasks are done by different people or different groups working together to control a large ship. The Gauss Bertone is similar.
The fully enclosed hull, in the bridge, transmits images from the outside world to the bridge's panoramic screen in real time through the arcane eyes set everywhere on the airship's body. The fixed panoramic screen is distributed
Directly in front and left and right.
The rear and up-and-down monitoring uses a picture-in-picture format that is narrowed down to a specific area. In this way, people do not have to turn their heads to look in a specific direction and ignore other directions. They can collect information in the same field of view.
Information in more directions.
As for the function of the Arcane Eye, it is only the original ability recorded by the Magician Association. It has not been upgraded by someone several times. It can be used as a microscope or an astronomical telescope, and can even see different phases, different dimensions and visible light.
A multi-purpose new arcane eye of ecto-energy.
The original function of the Arcane Eye is enough for the Gauss Bertone. If you want to 'see' more things, the magicians on this ship have to find a way on their own. Lin is not so crazy as to be on an airship belonging to someone else.
, set up a self-destruct device. In the future, there will be no problem for Juan or his successors to modify the Gauss Bertone.
To solve the problem of vision, the main driver uses the same spoke rudder as a watercraft. In addition to controlling left and right turns, the spoke rudder can also push forward and pull back to control the pitch angle.
The speed of the airship is controlled by the chief engineer in another cabin. Copper pipes connected to most locations in the airship transmit sounds and issue orders.
Although magic can be used to solve the problem of sound transmission, considering that in a combat state, a large amount of the energy pool reserve on the boat will be consumed. Problems that can be solved using simple mechanical principles can be solved in this way without consuming power.
Although the laying of copper pipes will take up part of the space inside the boat, after several discussions with Juan and other airship crew members, they still chose to use copper pipes for communication. Compared with occupying the manpower of a messenger, or in the
When the battle is fierce, the magical power is insufficient or interfered with, resulting in the inability to complete the magical communication. The price paid for the copper pipe communication can be said to be quite light.
In addition to the helmsman and engine, there is also a gunnery officer on the bridge who is responsible for issuing attack instructions to various gun positions; in addition to the main screen, there is a lookout officer who is responsible for monitoring the external situation; and is responsible for monitoring the status of the airship itself, including various
The defense officer who monitors the ship's hull integrity and defense capabilities, as well as the boatswain who is responsible for the manpower dispatch and rotation of the ship.
These people have their own seats in the bridge and corresponding control panels to help them better handle the affairs within their duties. The method of using programming language to integrate complex instructions into short commands has greatly improved the original flight experience.
The crew of the boat are all quite unfamiliar and must start from scratch.
But no one who has used it has thought about going back to the old method. Instead, they have added a lot of their own ideas on top of what has been done to make their work simpler and faster.
The captain's seat is in the center, in a raised position. You can overlook the people in all seats and even see what they are doing.
Although there is some authoritarian connotation in it, being able to control the movements of all personnel is of positive significance for commanding the airship. Therefore, Juan likes this design of the captain's position very much, and he also specially ordered an ergonomic design from the Technical Guild.
The seat is installed in the captain's position.
As for the so-called ergonomics, it is actually just a chair that is very comfortable to sit on. Who knows what the ergonomics of Midi are.
The position of the airship's deputy is to the side and rear of the captain's position, near the copper pipe. He is responsible for conveying the captain's orders and issuing them to the correct cabin.
Usually the first officer sits in this seat, but the Gauss Bertone also has a second officer, a third officer to a fifth officer, a total of five deputy captains. Although they have their own functions, they will still take turns, and at least one will stay next to the captain.
, and temporarily take over the command of the airship when necessary.
In addition to these seats for official personnel, there are also some guest seats that fold into the wall against the wall behind the bridge and can be put down when necessary. There is a place for non-official personnel on the bridge to sit.
However, seats are seats, and if you can stand, you can see more things. Therefore, none of the 'guests' who boarded the boat sat down. They were all looking east and west, even President Lin
The same goes for designers. But the former is mostly out of curiosity, while Lin is discussing with the people on the seat whether there are any flaws in design and functionality that need to be modified.
When Juan entered the bridge, the second officer who was sitting in the captain's seat to help check the status of the airship stood up and gave up his seat. Juan sat down on the chair he customized and moved comfortably
He moved his buttocks and sat down. He instructed the second officer who was currently in the deputy's position: "Report on the preparation status of each department."
The second officer immediately lifted the covers of all the copper pipes and reported to the whole ship. According to regulations, this report was in order to prevent everyone from being crowded together and unable to hear anything clearly. Although it was not smooth, everyone outside the bridge
The cabins are reported one by one and the preparations are completed. Then there is the situation of the personnel in each seat on the bridge.
When the deputy reported that the entire boat was ready, Juan immediately stood up, waved his hand majestically, and instructed: "Engine, move forward at half speed. The Gauss Bertone sets sail!" Then he winked back at someone with a proud look.
it goes without saying.
But as soon as someone heard the key word-half speed, he immediately pulled out the guest seat behind Cambridge and sat on it. The most important thing was to secure himself tightly with a seat belt. Hallumi and Ka
Kaya and Ya were not slow to respond. As soon as they saw their teacher's actions, they immediately followed suit. Kaya also spent some effort to fix the unconscious Marquise Balan in her seat.
Leonardo saw that both of his senior sisters had done this. Although he didn't understand the reason, he still did it. Then there was Fen, although she was a little reluctant. And the Grand Duke of Kawei, who was also on the boat as a guest,
Look at the magician's family making a fuss out of a molehill with the eyes of a fool.
