Act. 5 - lights
Act. 6 - release payload
The G6M1 "Ki" (Yellow) was a carrier-borne medium bomber (fictional) built in 1944 when the Japanese realized a carrierborne bomber could be very advantageous. Using the already tested engines from the A7M2, the G6M had a whopping 4400hp! It featured many innovative designs, such as the folding wings, and most importantly the hinged engines which allowed for carrier operations. It was essentially based off of the G3M with different engines, tip tanks, different avionics, and a new wing folding mechanism. You may be wondering why the defensive gunners have been eliminated. There’s a reason there are no carrierborne bombers. They’re heavy. To minimize weight, all defensive positions were lost to increase payload.
I can't land this thing on a runway without an arrestor hook for the life of me. For some reason, no matter what I do, it starts uncontrollably rocking back and forth, and then the wings get involved and I get screwed. It never blows up though...

A successful landing to me is that the plane doesn’t explode.
Looks cool, flies rightfully stiff since it's kinda huge, like the gimmicks too, they're great!
@asteroidbook345 Not a problem
@asteroidbook345 but I landed on the runway veered onto the grass my wing clipped the ground but didn’t ‘splode then drifted to face uss tiny
I landed it
I only have one complaint with this, the weels, they will turn in or out and make the plane flip onto its nose, does this happen for anybody else?
Yea, I checked your page and saw it. @asteroidbook345
Also, variant link does not work. Are you sure it’s correct/the variant is still there? I get a page that says this resource has been moved or removed.
Cursed plane
@asteroidbook345 No problems. Er, might I ask whether you're good at camos? I need help.
Ebic
Great job, man. Well done.
I would want to say this is sinful. but at the same time, genius.
Other than it, its an impressive build. Very smooth and clean design @asteroidbook345
Lowish-part build? Dude my planes have even less parts lmao
@asteroidbook345
Looks great! Realistically, however, visibility from the cockpit would be so bad that carrier landings would be impossible
I have a lot of planes ready to post too, but I figured I can't post things too frequently, or they won't get too popular lol
@asteroidbook345
I mean, seems like your planes are getting more popular than my full-cockpit ones...
How much time do you play this game daily?!
Well right, I more mean instead of shifting the engines outward and widening the wing. I'm not insulting it or anything rest assured it's just an interesting design and i haven't seen a plane that utilizes it @asteroidbook345
WOW
This is awesome! I love the detail on it!
This is pretty cool I gotta say, though I'm wondering: why are the engines pointed outward?
@asteroidbook345 np this is very fun to fly!
Thicc engines
