F4U-5 Corsair

I think this will be my final iteration of this plane!
I have added a 2,000 pound bomb centerline,
It has two AG missiles (If i remember correctly they were called "Tiny Tims"
And 8 Rockets per wing (4 5" and 4 3.75")
Plus 4 20mm Cannons (Represented by guns)
AG1: Flaps
AG2: Tailhook
AG3: Folding Wings
AG4: 2000 Pound bomb
AG6: Drop all ordinance (Except for 2,000 pound bomb. You need a fair amount of speed to be able to drop all of your ordinance, otherwise the "Tiny TIms" will blow off your prop and explode the whole plane!)
AG7: Reverse thrust
AG8: Turn off prop

I hope you like it, this will most likely be the final iteration, unless i learn how to do decals and if anyone links me the stats of the F4U-5N I will make one of those! Hope you like it!

    • A few notes for its little quirks
      First, when you are releasing all ordinance, i would suggest pulling up , or being pointed up.
      Second, It does pull down slightly when you are fully loaded, however it stabilizes well once you release the 2,000 pound bomb, for the most part.
      Hope you like it!

    Nice! It’s come a long way since I first saw it. Keep working hard like this! I really like its handling and the armament is really fun. Try experimenting with the cannons they just added too, I think that would add a lot of fun to this. Great work!
