Auto Credit Based on Kroixo's Handley Page Hampden Mk. 1

When I saw Kroixo's Handley Page Hampden I knew I had to Create this.

VR?

Almost, I couldn't solve a problem with Pitch control in this setup.

About the Wombat

Info from original post  

The Handley Page Hampden is a medium bomber with a total crew of 4 (pilot, navigator/bomb aimer, radio operator/dorsal gunner, and ventral gunner) It was manufactured by Handley Page (UK) and served in the early stages of the Second World War. It took part in the first night raid on Berlin. The Hampden is both fast and maneuverable. You can therefore call it a "fighting bomber". It's main use was nightbombing. There were a total of 1,430 built, and they were retired from RAF bomber command in 1942. There are no flightworthy models left, unfortunately.

Controls 

Youtube Startup Tutorial: StartupTutorial

Read flight instructions in-game (some deviation here, with levers and such)
AG1 - Cockpit hood
AG2 - Main entrance door
AG3 - Sextant hatch
AG4 - Air Brakes
AG5 - Upper/Lower gunner hood (makes the gun movable when opened)
AG6 - Bulkhead door
AG7 - Main entrance door jettisoned (for emergency exit)

Takeoff   

I use Full Flaps and Down Trim, 50% throttle and pull back on the Yoke. Gear and Flaps up Below 200 MPH., to prevent damage to them.

OR

Just go for it, as it will scoot down the runway at 300 MPH, happily.

Landing  

Full Flaps and Down Trim, 25% Throttle and Airbrakes until Airspeed is below 200MPH, Stalls around 150.

Changes/Additions

Added Jet Engine Pods (Throttle>85%)
Working GPS map together with Radar (toggle with "ON" button)
Airbrakes (B or AG4)
Several Cosmetic changes/additions

Notes
Realism? not in the cards. having said that, It's pretty good for my world.

Thanks and Comments Welcome
