Auto Credit Based on Vercynis's [Closed] -Collaberation Challenge-

Collaboration with Razor3278

The Isopod was a naval aircraft designed for the Royal Navy as a reconnaissance single-engined craft. Despite it’s vintage look, the Isopod was equipped with advanced radar and heat detection devices in the wings for keeping tabs on submarines. The CG-73M was only capable of cruising at around 156mph (251km/h), but this speed allowed it to keep pace with naval units without stalling, a valuable advantage. Developed and released to the Navy in late 2016, 500 Isopod’s were initially produced by MMC Aerospace, but their low production cost and incredible detection capabilities ensured their long service life.

Controls

  • Pitch for Elevators
  • Roll for Ailerons
  • Trim for Trim
  • AG 8 for navigation lights

Control Notes

  • Takeoff speed is 90mph (144km/h)
  • Don’t land at speeds exceeding 100mph (160km/h)
  • Trim is recommended in-flight to maintain altitude (5%)
  • Don’t make erratic manoeuvres with any more than 10% Trim deployed, doing so may result in the aircraft going into a spin

    Because SP is meant to be a website for sharing aircraft, not for discussing religious views about Halloween. Thanks for the upvote though @Jacobdaniel

    I noticed that you where litteraly two parts away from the original minimum part count. 498 parts and it used to be 500 parts. Good thing it’s now 300 parts.

    @Razor3278 this is the Naval variant, would you like me to do the cockpit for the civilian variant that you’re working on?

    Look Good. I expected it to be on the top best. I think it would be even if other people participated (does not appear like there are many participants though).
