Biplane Fighter "Firecracker"

44.3k rexzion  4.0 years ago
Auto Credit Based on rexzion's Biplane Fighter

I can't stress this enough but download the darn plane instead of just upvoting, because the looks of the plane is only part of it

remember my Observador plane? You know how I couldn't make the cockpit, yeah now I can
100% handmade instruments


So firstly you need to learn how the instruments work, so here they are
1

from left top to right:
1. your airspeed indicator, each notch is 100 kph IAS, the red light under it is your stall warning light
2. little horizon ball thingy you know what it does
3. altimeter, white handle moves one notch each 1000m and red handle makes a full lap every 1000m
4. fuel guage
5. heading/runway lineup, red is north, white arrow is you, and the white lines are your runway. to adjust runway direction, activate AG7 then use yaw to turn the runway lines


CONTROLS:

Normal Flight Control
AG7 is and yaw to adjust instrument
Trim is trim


FEATURES:

  1. working instruments and cockpit
  2. camera shake when guns are fired
  3. limited gun ammo (only 21 seconds of fire!) also i stole this from vcharng lol
  4. somewhat realistic flight characteristics

du du du rest of desc...

    for those who want an accurate ammo counter, use this function:
    round(69-clamp(sum(clamp01(FireGuns)),0,420)/420*69)
    where 69 is your amount of ammo you are given,
    and 420 is the ammo time in seconds.

    Oh and stall warning is based on AoA, not speed. And why turn it off below 10 meters AltitudeAgl? Stall waring often offers a short beep just before touchdown, like so:

    btw I was flying this around and for the compass there is a thing called ShortestAngle, play around with capitals and stuff but yeah set it to true or false and then it wont spin around a full lap when it could just go 1* if you know what I mean

    @rexrexThezion trust me it's a good strat. I rarely use it but it's on the KEA--the ultimate sign

    @rexrexThezion it's not that the yaw isnt strong enough, it's that it's too crisp and stiff. I would even argue that it is too powerful. It just needs to be smooth and, idk, smooooth. So maybe lighten the deflection, and add the wing in the middle. This also helps the yaw actually change the heading, yaw really does magic irl
    .
    Sorry I am doing a bad job explaining, hope it makes sense. And now I know what wing switches are

    @UltraLight alright, the roll rate and it's characteristics were intentional, they are supposed to slowly accelerate the roll. I thought I made the yaw strong enough I think it's fine tbh.
    .
    wing switches, look at the cockpit of my observador
