Lol 😂 @yoshicraze
It’s fine, still a great plane. @TMach5
@Simplemike I'm not certain about the pitch direction on the real one. I figured having a 50/50 chance of getting right was good enough. As for the engine smoke, it's controlled by a VTOL engine in the fuselage and oversized thrust ports near the back of the engines. I use a similar setup to create gunsmoke on cannons.
@TheCreatorandDestroyer99 @PorkyClown3 I'm sorry about that. As usual , I realized the issue only after uploading. I resolved it in this unlisted post if you want to check it out here--->B-58 Update
I know I already commented but this is awesome to fly. How did you make the engines smoke black? Also do the wings ?elevators? Move down to pitch the aircraft up on the real one?
Nice, but you should fix the issue where damage is taken to the aircraft for no reason when using the rear machine guns.
The back guns prove useful against guided missiles
Thanks! @Simplemike
I hate you! Only joking!! I love the b58 but couldn't make a cockpit shape I liked and spent too much time trying and failing. Great work it looks awesome!
Lol @TMach5
