Hawker Siddeley Eagle GR2 5.0

233k RamboJutter  3.2 years ago

Introduction

The first of a few salvaged builds. As you probably know i have a tendancy of building something (usually upto about 75% complete) and then move onto a new project before the first one is complete. So i have decided to finish some to the point that they are operable but not necessarily fully detailed or updated for the latest patches etc.

This aircraft has so many novel bits a pieces, some are listed below:

Automatic flaps
Automatic landing gear
Variable geometry wings
Thrust vectoring (yaw, pitch and roll)
All moving tail (trim - pitch / roll on standard elevator surfaces)

Controls

AG1 = reheat
AG3 = airbrakes
VTOL up = wings forward (for takeoff)
VTOL dn = wings back

    I took off from wright, used the reheat for most the time while destroying USS Beast and the destroyers and back to wright and still had 20% fuel

    This plane is very neat! I really like the design. I def feel your pain with the completing builds thing, i haven't uploaded in over a year because i up my standards faster than i build.

    Ah good call - got several sat at 10-99% completion. Should scrum down and stop getting distracted by MTW2...
