GD-A.1 Geier
Big thank you and credits to @BernBernTheWitch for some components and inspiring me to make custom weaponry, @JS01 for some design recommendations, and @BeefyIsNotSus for providing the main component for the guided bombs.
The Geier(Vulture), is a tandem seat, twin engine, twin boom, all weather aircraft built by Geister Dynamics for the Royal Navy and Air Force.
The Geier primarily serves as a close air support attack aircraft, observation and forward air control, surveillance, and other roles that makes use of its versatile airframe. Though still prominent and used extensively by the Royal Navy, the Royal Air Force has since retired their Geiers or transferred them to the Navy.
Armaments
The Geier can be equipped with a variety of weapons ranging from free fall bombs to anti-ship missiles. The main armament of the Geier is the GR.50/80 autocannon.
Some of its armaments include:
Four GPB-500B laser-guided bombs.
Ten AGM-102B air to ground missiles.
Instructions
Ag.6=Wing Fold
Ag.7=Tail Hook
Ag.8=Lights
VTOL=Flaps
TRIM=Trim
Features
Wing Fold
Decelerons
Custom(?) Landing Gear
Slime Lights
Simple Cockpit
Custom Munitions:
AGM-102B, a simple missile
GPB-500B, laser guided missile which has automatic fins
The GPB-500Bs work the best if dropped either at high altitudes or in close range. Just make sure the lower your altitude is, the closer you must be to your target.
Maneuverability may be too snappy, use Trim to counter any downward or upward forces.
Enjoy,

@TDevil36 ah I see, try attaching it to the other parts of the detacher? Honestly I forgot which end it should attach to
Unfortunately I have tried that a number of times to achieve the same results.
As soon as the game loads the fin(s) are already deployed without me releasing the weapon. @UnmanagedReservoir
@TDevil36 right now I am unable to help due to some projects, so I apologize.
But, just a quick tip on how I do automatic fins:
Set the rotator or hinge to Ag.8
Go to overload and set the Max, Min values to 1 and 1 respectively(so if Ag.8 is turned off, the fin will still deploy)
Add your fin
Using the Attachment Editor, attach the moving part(tip) of the rotator or hinge to the top of the detacher of your custom weapon, the same top that attaches to the pylon, assuming you are indeed working with a custom missile
When the weapon is launched, the fins will deploy
I apologize if I can't help further at the moment and if my instructions are unclear. But that's what I can only do for now
Can You help me make automatic fins for my weapons?
@UnguidedCylinder Thank you very much!
@mikoyanster Thank you! I will participate, and I'll definitely do my best!
You are invited to participate in the 1st Jetfighter Challenge! Your creations have the level to participate, please take a look. Thank you
@Norag33 thank you!
@Sovietstrike333 thank you!
@JS01 thanks!
Very good
Cool!
LIT
@tucan Thank you very much!
@ChrisPy Thank you! And yes, the drag did slip my mind during the build since I haven't built a plane in a while. I'll keep that in check next time.
But..... The # of drag points makes it have unrealistic acceleration and engine power along with the fact that it adds lag
Absolutely astounding I mean really!
I love it!!!!
this is amazing i love it.
