TWA l-1049 Super Constellation

420 Jaden24  6.3 years ago

The Lockheed L-1049 Super Constellation is an American aircraft, a member of the Lockheed Constellation aircraft line. This is the the TWA livery version. The L-1049 was Lockheed's response to the successful Douglas DC-6 airliner, first flying in 1950. The aircraft was also produced for both the United States Navy and Air Force as transport, electronics, and airborne early warning and control aircraft.

It controls well but needs trim at low speeds.
Also it leans to the left A LOT. if anyone could fix it plz do and tag me on the post I'll give credit!

AG-1: wing lights
AG-2: Upper cabin lights
AG-3: Landing gear lights
AG-8: Lower cabin lights

    I think your homeade landing gear is colliding with something inside the aircraft and it is steering the aircraft to the left through this weird torque thing which happens to me too. but once I use disabled aircraft collision parts to make my landing gear that usually stops the problem, because it disables the colliding and stops the whole torque thing.
    I would try that first because that is usually the problem for me but I could be wrong :/
