U2

180 Mineburgh  8.0 years ago

This is my highly detailed new and improved version of the American spy plane, the U2. It took me forever to make this, so please upvote if you like it. I fixed an issue where deploying the flaps would make the aircraft stall. Please let me know in the comments below if there are any issues or what I should build next. Enjoy!

Controls:
AG 1: Detach wing-wheels(this is what U2 pilots do after take off)
Trim: Flaps
Brake: wheel and air brakes

Be gentle on her at low speeds or else you will stall. She has fantastic control at high altitudes! Landing can be difficult as she only has 2 wheels, so make use of the rudder and air brakes. Please upvote if you like it!


Special credit and thank you to Sarpanitu for his awesome cockpit!

    @CRJ900Pilot it was done on iOS as well, which made it difficult, but thanks for the feedback. I'll improve and post it again in the near future

    Looks nice for a beginner build. But like @BogdanX said, it needs a little work. Not saying that to be mean, but more of constructive criticism. And you can always shearch things like "U-2 plane blueprint." Those always help me
