Su-47 Berkut

311 Bootlesspick  2.0 years ago

Just an attempt and result of messing around various things, resulting in my own attempt of the Su-47, features only air to air weaponry with an interal weapons bay included, cockpit not fully done, feel free to customize it. I may make more improvements over time but this is the first version I am uploading. Also some parts are not made in a way to resemble the actual Su-47 due to issues in testing the plane or have not been implemented properly yet. Also lacks any guns current since they weren’t cooperating with the aircraft as I intended so add any as you wish.

Warning
Make sure to manage the pitch of the aircraft, it has a tendency to point the nose down to while flying but managing the pitch will easily counteract this.

Do not recommended using auto pilot, aircraft tends to pitch heavily up and down when active.

Be careful in pitching the noes down hard, the primary cockpit seems to detach from the aircraft though remain inside if you repeatedly force the noes down hard, so far it has not proved to threaten the aircraft so far in testing but recommend avoiding such maneuvers, however this problem will hopefully be solve in a future version if I ever post one.

When turning the aircraft on the ground recommend setting engines to no greater that 1% otherwise the aircraft will tip to the side if you are going too fast in a turn.

Activation groups:
1 - Drag chute
2 - cockpit
3 - drop tanks

    @Zaineman Thanks, I have been working on implementing a variety of improvements and I have been able to tackle some of the issues, I will probably post the improved version soon after this comment is posted so if you would like to work off that version you can if you want.l, my only warning is to avoid adding back some of the drag scale to parts of the plane since some of the changes started to cause it to turn randomly to the left, I have been able to minimize the problem though I went through and checked the aircraft and it seems the problem is related to the main body itself, it only seems to now tilt 1 degree to the left during takeoff but it also seems to correct the course to the direction it took off once it’s in the air so whatever part is still causing the problem it doesn’t seem to jeopardize the aircraft ability to fly.

    Bootlesspick, I love your aircraft. Yes, it doesn't fly the greatest but it is a beautiful plane. I have been working on it ever since you posted it. I still have more work to do but when I am finished, you will love it. I put my "Zaineman" cockpit™ in it & changed out the interceptors for ICG Interceptors™. Now it can perform Post Stall Maneuvers ! Lastly, You will be automatically tagged to receive credit and points. I will be giving you credit for the build in LINE ONE of the description !
