The Iconic Bush Plane, the Piper PA-18 Super Cub! | ~ | Also I swear I’ve only made one of these before, a long time ago, and it was a specific person’s cub and I didn’t have much freedom with it, and I wanted to make my own. (Teaser!)

Sorry for the long title. But yes, believe it or not, with all the bush planes I make, I have only made 1 Super Cub before.

This is the plane I was building in the live streams. I’ve been a bit lazy with those, but that’s because when I’m streaming, I feel a bit of pressure that I have to keep building and can’t randomly take a break and watch a YouTube video while I’m building or something. Tbh I think I prefer building just by myself.

Anyway

About the Cub, it has about 1800 parts (about 1840 when complete), the model is basically finished, I just need to improve the flight model now, ie, add prop torque effects and gyro effects, and all that fun stuff.
Everything in the interior functions, the doors open, it has differential braking (activates above 0.75 rudder input), realistic performance, adjustable payload weights.
I’ll probably only make a bush version of this plane. And maybe take the floats of my Cessna 180, scale them down a bit, and attach them to this.













Oh my god! This thing looks real with ReShade! 😃
Should be uploaded some time next week.

T for tag!

Also should it be yellow and black, or white and blue?

    @Cocomax400 Yeah, this was made before there was a button to centre the camera. At least it's an easy fix. And thanks! :)

    It’s kinda annoying because on the camera 1 you can’t look around and it will keep you looking that direction it will force you back to looking foward, although I love the great mode, and performance, you could tell that you put lots of work into this!

    The left one is clamp((1 / TAS) * (1 / TAS), 0, 100000) * clamp01(Yaw < -0.75) * clamp01((AltitudeAgl < 1.75) * clamp01(Altitude > 1.5)) and the right one is clamp((1 / TAS) * (1 / TAS), 0, 100000) * clamp01(Yaw > 0.75) * clamp01((AltitudeAgl < 1.75) * clamp01(Altitude > 1.5))
    This code makes it only activate when the cockpit is below 1.5m above the ground, and it only brakes when your yaw input is beyond 0.75. @47parzival41

    Between 10 and 50 degrees. Usually at about 20-25. I downloaded the zoom mod so I wouldn’t have to type in the FOV all the time. I dunno why I didn’t do that ages ago lol @Chancey21
