He177 Eagle’s Eye

310k WinsWings  2.8 years ago

Designed for maximum enjoyment!

Yes, with it all glazed cockpit, there is large clear view of the surroundings. Enjoy with VR, I made it for maximum excitement.

Landing: Drop down the speed to 120 or less for landing. There are powerful airbrakes, (apply airbrakes at throttle zero) and push back the throttle around 10%. Also, AG1 is the brake parachute. do not apply until you are too close to the runway. overall, it is a nice flying plane at top speed of 350 mph. (I made it around 500 at the beginning, but lowered it down to 300-350 range for the present and safe flight.)

This cockpit is inspired by WW2 German Heinkel He176 experimental rocket plane. But this is not an exact copy of it, I built it on my way after all.

Have fun!
*He177 is a fictional concept

    This aircraft's name is coincident with a real He177 (which is a heavy bomber), But too late, I can not change other name, as it is "Curated" by SP

    @WinsWings when you make a button, put a Period " . " Inside of the box that says "ToolTip" if you do this,when the button is pushed,you won't see a giant "Activate 1" when that button is pushed. All that will appear is a tiny little dot (a period) so it won't be distracting or take up a bunch of the screen. Give it a try. Z
