Overview:
The glorious B-25J Mitchell, renowned for its versatility on all fronts during the Second World War. This creation is a replica of the B-25J-5-NC SN-43-28059 “Apache Princess”. She’s been replicated to the finest detail, with a fully detailed interior, exterior and cockpit, all recreated to historical accuracy. Source used for this research: MAAM.
Flight characteristics are realistic, turn rate, speed ect. As such, don’t expect loop de loops or high energy manoeuvres as you will stall. (*Note, it’s suggested that you always have trim pitched up).
Hot Tips:
- If you do lose an engine, do not deploy flaps to full, you will stall because of the drag, much like the real thing
- 7 forward facing guns can rip through enemy planes
- Bombs should be released slowly to avoid jams, check for clearance

More information:
The North American B-25 Mitchell is an American twin-engine, medium bomber manufactured by North American Aviation (NAA).
The design was named in honor of Major General William "Billy" Mitchell, a pioneer of U.S. military aviation. Used by many Allied air forces, the B-25 served in every theater of World War II and after the war ended many remained in service, operating across four decades. Produced in numerous variants, nearly 10,000 Mitchells rolled from NAA factories.

I HATE the side art!!!😡🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
@UberAte thats not alot of detail dum*ass
@lonegrumpy76 How do you know what happened to him in such detail? Was there a survivor? Where/in what battle was he shot down in?
My grandma's uncle was a tail gunner in this plane during ww2, unfortunately he was shot down and died when the g-force made it impossible for him to bail
@CoolPeach oh ok
The landing gear only works on High Physics, the suspension acts funny on lower physics, especially on mobile. @Notrjmm
@CoolPeach i know its 2020 but can i re up this w fixed lg cus it always colapsed
Nice. I have been working on a B-25 for a while myself. Only thing I found a tad wrong was I noticed the controls are in the wrong positions in flight after watching a old video on how to fly a B-25
@CoolPeach oh ok why not delete the fake cockpit dials?
Probs cannot get it under 1000 parts if u still want the interior stuff.
@Daylight
And decal means the accessories
@CoolPeach but just dont delete the interior just delete the decal
@CoolPeach can you delete some parts to make it 1000 parts?
It crashed.Dammit.
@CoolPeach ok thanks
Just increase the deflection angle of the wing pieces in the back if you wish
@Pilothouston5
@CoolPeach is there anyway I can make the trim more powerful
@CoolPeach I tried the trim and I have to hold pitch down to keep level
Use the trim then, it’ll keep the nose up
@Pilothouston5
@CoolPeach it seems way to front heavy like nose diving on high phisicys (i cant spell)
I have a model of this plane, very nice ;)
@CoolPeach alright thanks man I’ll use that
Best way is keep it simple. Attach wing pieces were you want them with the control surfaces and then just scale them down and nudge them in. Keep the wing area close to the actual plane (measure it without the vertical stabs tho), it’ll keep the handling realistic. @Johndfg
@CoolPeach yeah totally when I get to making it fly Imighy ask for your help. How do you usually do it?
I can offer some help if want, or just general advice if you’d like?@Johndfg
