Supermarine Spitfire Mk-Vb Trop

6,142 Hypn0  5.8 years ago

Supermarine Spitfire Mk1a

this is the Mk-Vb trop version with Hispano cannons and a trop air filter I also changed the aircraft identification

Features

an oil drum for the lols
A bullet ejection system (Courtesy of @AdlerSteiner)
A functional cockpit!
Working control surfaces (Except for ailerons the elliptical wing shape make it annoying!)

Controls

VTOL - flaps (only for landing)
Trim - trim (very sensitive though)
ag7 - navigation lights

Takeoff

Throttle 100%
slowly pull up and DO NOT USE TRIM!

Landing

flaps down
throttle 5% upon early approach and use the brake on midair but not upon touchdown
do not pull up upon touchdown instead gently apply brakes and wait till your speed is below 60 mph then you may attempt to slowly pull up

Credit

@randomusername for doing the flight performance (Dang! I can imagine a lot of work went into that! go give him a follow!)

@MisterT for great inspiration and letting me use his control stick.

@AdlerSteiner for the bullet ejection system

@pavthepilot for being a great friend and inspiration!

    To be fair it's a smart looking build but it isn't a spitfire, the fuselage, fin, tail, wing shape etc isn't right, but all that apart it is a nice looking creation, if you had named it as a fictional build it would have been awesome :) @HistoricBirds

    That’s a nice oil drum you got there, can I purchase it separately or what?

Remember, nobody is perfect.

    Sarcasm? No that’s not sarcasm. I’m just asking why you’ve got the designer light so dark. @HistoricBirds
