Firestorm
Firestorm - WWII Fighter by WhoTookCarter
This single-seat World War II-era fighter plane is powered by a single 116 in. propeller and carries an armament of both bombs and rockets as well as four integrated wing guns. It also features a fully interactable VR cockpit custom and landing gear sequenced to fold away neatly and realistically.
For this build I omitted using funky trees excessively with flight controls because I wanted to emulate a more era-appropriate flying experience. Therefore you might find it somewhat harder to fly than some of my other builds, as pilot experience is the most important factor in how well it performs; in other words, skill issue.
Controls:
Standard pitch, roll, yaw, throttle, brakes, and trim. VTOL down for flaps. VR-ready.
Control groups:
1 - Canopy
5 - Disarm (for formation flying and safe jettison)
6 - Jettison
