Nakajima B5N1

9,382 FlOu  9.1 years ago

After a while without uploads here I am. My excuse is this replica of the Nakajima B5N1. It took me a huge time to realise this project cause I did it while I learned to modificat parts with the app DroidEdit. It's still not perfect but I can't continue cause it takes me to much time. Damn is this a hard work to change the xml. The idea with the torpedo I had from @MaxTheoZ with his beautiful working torpedo, so I deciaded to build a torpedobomber. I hope you guys like it. I would be happy if you give me a comment or an upvote to let me know what you think about it.

Note:
- Act 1 for torpedo engine
- Act 2 to drop the torpedo
- Camera 1 on torpedo
- While take off adjust with yaw to the right to not ride to the left cause on the left front wing is a small wing part
- You have to fly gentle, it's an old airplane with realistic flight character
- Nose heavy till you drop the torpedo
- Drop the torpedo between 400-500 feet to guarantee the functionality
- Goes a little bit faster than the real one

Wikipedia:
The Nakajima B5N (Japanese: ?? B5N, Allied reporting name "Kate") was the standard carrier torpedo bomber of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) for much of World War II.

Although the B5N was substantially faster and more capable than its Allied counterparts, the TBD Devastator, Fairey Swordfish and Fairey Albacore, it was nearing obsolescence by 1941. Nevertheless, the B5N operated throughout the whole war, due to the delayed development of its successor, the B6N. In the early part of the Pacific War, flown by well-trained IJN aircrews and as part of well-coordinated attacks, the B5N achieved particular successes at the battles of Pearl Harbor, Coral Sea, Midway, and Santa Cruz Islands.

Primarily a carrier-based aircraft, it was also occasionally used as a land-based bomber. The B5N carried a crew of three: pilot, navigator/bombardier/observer, and radio operator/gunner.

    I know how the plane is colored in real life and it isn't that green but rather quite bright blue and bright green and the blades being yellow at the tips.

    @FlOu Yes, I am sorry to have confused you.

    Freaked out? Do you understand how inaccurate and stupid red tails is? Do you understand me at all? No.

    Comparing people is not at all a good thing. If you do it also depends on what you are comparing.

    Also:
    "Save us from the red tails. For the movie turned the actual people into monsters!"

    If this counts as freaked out, your reply counts as an immortal hell fire.

    Oh, and not to mention the fact that he freaked out at a guy for making a Red Tails replica.

    @Oicraftian I can't find your type 27. Did you mean the type 26B?

    Well, if you weren't in an intimate relationship with yours and every third user's prostate gland, I wouldn't have to say that. By the way, Rth is better than you by leaps and bounds.

    And now apparently... Well; https://www.google.ca/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=brown%20noser and https://www.google.ca/search?q=obsequious&oq=obsequious&aqs=chrome..69i57&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8

    It does now seem that looking up to an excellent designer is a crime XD

    I hope you would review my Type 27. I have flown it myself and it far outstrips the Type 8 mod.3 (previously renowned for being maneuverable; by myself alone) in maneuverability! It also has almost the same airspeed as the Type 8 Mod.4 with the same engine power. Granted, it has extremely dangerous ground handling and landing qualities which have to do with it having a poor landing gear arrangement, and the cowling is ugly, but I'd like to see how you like it

    @Oicraftian hey mate. Thank you! It's preety hard to build a replica only with photos from the internet. So it's good possible that my replicas contain little errors. I don't know if it could carry your torpedo. Your torpedo is really big. Bit what is your question? Excuse me for my bad english, it's not my maternal language :)

    while the sides and front views aren't as good as the top view. It is a so very perfect aircraft. The sides and front don't seem as historically accurate as the side though, very sorry. I could not make an aircraft with this level of perfect. It is, well, excellent!

    I do wonder, could it carry my torpedo? If you remove the fuel mass I added it would be much lighter. I do believe my torpedo is acceptable in performance. With a slight roll to starboard that is about 10m after traveling for 5 minutes. Maximum roll mind you.

    @FlOu - you're welcome. If you invest a lot of time in this game, you should invest in a cheap PC. It is literally 100x easier to mod with. :-)

    @WalrusAircraft hell yes it's really a pain. I made thos experience with that build and I don't know if I would edit every build cause it has robbed me my last nerve! Everytime I had to switch on both apps and search the parts in the huge xml file. It was really a hard job. And I don't find out how to connect parts. Will see If I find ot out. Thanks btw for the friendly comment and upvote
