hello hello
I have made a handling tweak to this amazing f14 by Zero
All credit goes to ZeroWithSlashedO
I will remove this if the original designer requests to remove it
This tweak hopefully helps with issues players have been facing flying this aircraft.
The changes I made were:
decreased wing loading to around 60 lbs/ft^2
decreased drag to below 2000 drag points
added a strong airbrake(clipped inside fusalage)
increased Power/weight ratio to ~0.7 similar to the f14D version
fixed the spoiler
and few other small tweaks
p.s. the manual sweep wing can sweep the wing even further than the automatic max position, it is to save space on aircraft carriers and the plane is not designed to fly that way.
Tbh I thought the handling was alright, many of these changes I made myself before reading the comments because I am a big tomcat fan.
I think this could be one of the best tomcats on the site because of the very accurate proportions.
And again, PLEASE CHECK OUT THE ORIGINAL DESIGNER OF THIS CRAFT!
(and perhaps my other stuff as well :D )
At my location it is midnight so i cannot respond to comments
I will respond if there is any comments after I wake up
so uhhh... good night
