A.64 Progress for A Generic Cargo Company
This bird is nearly complete, rudder and RAT deployment is still unavailable. Gear braking needs work, and so does stability. I wanted the cockpit to be immersive, where it's all there, without the need for the in-game hud (except for the VTOL slider for gear tilling). It's fairly rudimentary, but far more detail-oriented than my previous builds. My goal is to introduce heading-select, altitude-hold and auto-throttle, as soon as I figure that out and properly implement it, into one of my next few builds, as well as a more elaborate electric system and start-up sequence. Stability will needs a bit of work but not too bad.
-- Important Labels
1 - Engine start-up panel
2 - Gear brake (further instructions are on the consul panel)
3 - Thrust reverser sleeve safety release
4 - Parking brake enable
5 - Roll trim... to help with her gentle pull to port
Important Notes (please review):
Airbrakes have massive aerodynamic affects, never deploy greater than 25% at speeds greater than 320 knots; doing so may cause catastrophic destabilization.
Flaps/Slats have massive aerodynamic affects, never deploy greater than 10 degrees at speeds greater than 300 knots; doing so may cause catastrophic destabilization.
(a) This craft uses slotted flaps, designed to produce more drag than lift, use appropriately.Engines MUST be allowed to finish sequencing before engaging thrust, to guarantee balanced acceleration, this takes about 15 seconds.
Rotate at 195 knots, and V2 at 200 knots. Gear brake is pretty hefty so I can assure you this bird will stop when you tell it to.
Visual warning system is in place (calibrated for Wright Airport), it will alert you when your angle of attack exceeds +/- 19 degrees, bank angle exceeds +/- 15 degrees, or approaching a stall.
Her tail number N262AB is currently assigned to a GLASAIR III (SH-3R), but my plane here is fictional so I think it'll be okay.
The levers to open the doors are just behind the captain's seat.

@fleia262 i give you idea
Build Replica plane, using 250-750 parts
So, good luck!
Thank you for the upvotes and visiting!

@Sergio666
@fleia262 Its ok, its just pain for Mobile players
@fleia262 Yep, me too. ;)
@Erc90F4RU im sorry friend, I get carried away and use so many parts haha. But thank you for the upvote and spotlight, even though its not mobile friendly, i appreciate it 🙏😊
@Boeing777x indeed, it a slow process, but im happy with it so far.
Hm... Look so long and NOT mobile version.
Sad moment
We're getting very close now. :)
