For Lithium Aerospace their collaborative project with CedCo was a nice breather after all of the military aircraft they developed. The goal - revamp one of CedCo's oldest but finest racing planes - the R - 17 Venom II.
Here's the original post
In game changes:
- AIRFOILS!!!
- Tandem cockpit
- More realistic engines (auto afterburner over 95% throttle)
- Redesigned airframe
- Other small details
- Updated to include my ILS in both cockpits!!!
This was the plane that inspired many of my creations, experiments and ideas even before I started uploading, to this day it holds a special place in my heart. I decided to give it tribute by upgrading it in this challenge.
Controls (also listed in aircraft instructions):
Pitch, Roll, Yaw, Throttle like normal
AG1 smoke (disable to jettison)
AG3 canopy
AG4 formation lights
AG5 speedbrakes
AG8 lights
VTOL flaps (they're stepped)
Cockpit / VR controls
button 1 on throttle lever for speedbrakes
pull throttle lever back for brakes
flaps buttons only work if VTOL >= 0 (i.e. flaps aren't being controlled by VTOL)
runway heading indicator (on the compass) adjusted by knob

@FlyingPotato_131 Your ILS is the only one I've seen so far which supports any heading, and has a simple latitude and longitude input making it easy to add lots of mod airports (another one I've seen uses two latitudes and two longitudes for some reason).
@PlaneFlightX thanks) the ILS is probably one of my proudest works yet
This is legit a pretty fun plane to fly (I've been testing the ILS a lot)
Dude! Yes! From the time the original was uploaded, I’ve used it! When the update hit i realized how outdated it was. Such a good place to remake
@NightRaven2233 all you need is some jets, engineers and a lot of money
Epic!
I wish this was a real plane looks awesome
Nice!
