Tu-314

13.8k vonhubert  8.3 years ago
Auto Credit Based on vonhubert's Tu-124-21 v0.23

Fictional aircraft based on tu-134. Kind of what if tu-134 be modernized aerodynamically and converted to a high speed turboprop. Here in something like business jet version.

Stabilizer (pitch adjustment) is adjustable with trim slider.

Mechanics work with VTOL slider.

AG1 - Landing gear; (100% UP = Gear Up, 0%= Gear Down)
AG2 - Flaps; (0% = Flaps retracted, 100% DOWN = Flaps deployed)
AG3 - Spoilers (= Airbrakes, 100% UP = Deployed, 0% = Retracted, tends to pitch up the plane, use on approach with partial deployment or after touch down with full deployment)
AG6 - Landing lights;
AG7 - Nav. Lights;
AG8 - Ground steering (sensitivity adjustment, when active - steers to the limit, when deactivated - steers 5 degrees, deactivate on takeoffs and landing, activate for ground maneuvers only)

Take off procedure - Trim 1/2 up, flaps 1/2 down, full thrust

Landing procedure - full flaps, trim 1/2 up, 75-80% thrust. Be careful with spoilers on landing, they pitch up the plane (surprisingly, that was an issue in real life, more modern planes compensate that automatically with stabilizer adjustment)
NEEDS SOFT LANDING

Level flight - thrust 75-80%, trim slightly below 1/4 UP

Said to be working on mobile devices. From my experince - almost a sldeshow. But i tried on samsung a3 cellphone) Probably may work on new ipads and so on.

    @vonhubert Scary, but I can see that that was the style you were going for in the first one.

    @pushthelimits Thanks. It's like 1960s version, and i do admit, it looks kind of more elegant. But I plan on making another "modern" one with modern streamlined prop, like current D-27 engine

    @vonhubert Nice. The new prop style makes it look cleaner, too.

    @pushthelimits i actually finally did one a lot better. Basically everything except from base airframe made new: flaps, cockpit, engines are new, landing gear and tail are heavily modified

    @pushthelimits by the way, that's a model of real engine Ivchenko-Progress D-27, the only current Prop-Fan engine in use (though limited) - on AN-70 military cargo plane) And in reality - it has 8 instead of 6 blades on each prop)))
