My Latest Creation: The Cobra (TESTERS NEEDED)

15.4k SajabAerospace  6.4 years ago

The Cobra is my latest fighter aircraft design. It is an evolution of my existing "Vector" aircraft, with thrust vectoring capability.

Here is a quick demo of the aircraft, and some of its abilities.

Unfortunately the design isn't perfect. The main issue is with the yaw control. Whenever yaw is used in flight, the aircraft explodes. I believe that this problem is something to do with the thrust vectoring mechansism, but I'm not sure.

This is what happens.

If anyone here can help squash this bug or give advice on improving the flight characteristics (which I feel are already rather good) then that would be great. You will be credited when I release the aircraft publicly.

If you want to help test the aircraft, let me know in the comments and I'll tag you in an unlisted upload.

Thanks!

    @Minecraftpoweer it's meant to be like that. The thrust vectoring gives it controlability post stall. It's also fairly easy to manage at high angles of attack.

    i have no time to test right now but from the video it ''stalls'' pretty easely so just add a Little deadweight to the front until it works :3

    I've disabled collisions for the entire thrust vectoring assembly, but it still won't work. Also, yaw seems to be fine when the plane isn't moving.

    Also about your yaw issues? What platform do you build on
