Beechcraft King Air 350 ALSR
My best build so far
I spent a lot of time on this build, I didn't have much rest, so I'm glad I managed to finish it. I hope you enjoy it ! So this time for this contest I tries to raise the level, I started with the fuselage of the aircraft, with the shape of the real one, I made more complicated wings than usual, to have the same wing profile than the real one... I made custom control surfaces, custom landing gears and real landing gears housing, a openable door, functional and automatic optronic ball (camera).
And what about the replica ?
The Beech/Beechcraft (it's the same) King Air 350 belongs to the King Air series, a family of twin turboprop aircraft. There is 4 aircrafts in the king Air family: model 90, model 100, model 200, and model 300. This build is the B300 King Air 350, produced since 1983. The French Air force ordered 3 Beechcraft King Air 350, nicknamed "Vador", modified to become ISR/LSRA (ALSR in french), that is to say Light Surveillance and Reconnaissance Aircraft. The modifications from the civil King Air 350 are mainly the ventral compartiment, which carries electronic equipment, and a camera named "optronic ball". The French Air Force has actually received 2 King Air 350 ALSR, delivered in 2020.
Functions:
VTOL (down): Flaps
AG1: Navigation Lights
AG2: Boarding door
AG3: Optronic ball
Known bugs:
- it's not a bug but the front landing gear can block itself...
- In other settings than high physics, the propellers can explode
- And there is a default of balance that I did not succeed in correcting
To finish, some screenshoots !
And the real aircraft:
Enjoy !!
