H-27A-3

My first upload in a while. The H-27A-3 is based on my H-27A-2, but I’ve changed the empennage, shortened the wingspan but increased the wing surface area, and have added lots of details. This is my first plane I’ve tried to detail extensively, so it may look a bit odd or lacking, as I wasn’t really sure what to do. The plane has some XML edited parts, and I’ve used nudge to aid in detailing.

The H-27 is a fictional WWII fighter plane designed for performance and manoeuvrability. It is armed with two machine guns in the wings, and a single machine cannon firing through the propeller shaft. It flies nicely, but because of all the pieces used for the details, it isn’t as manoeuvrable as I’d like it to be.
At take-off, use around 50% throttle and pull up the whole time. When in flight, the aircraft is a bit unstable, so after take-off, be careful, as you’ll nose down a lot. Once you’re airborne, it flies quite nicely. I couldn’t get the trim to work, so help would be appreciated. If you start from an air start, it will take a while for the modded engine to reach full power, so it will be quite heavy on the elevators for a bit.

AG1 for lights

I have a version with less detail, but a better hp/weight ratio and lower wing loading and a winter camo that I might upload.

Credits and thanks:
@HellFireKoder for the fine tune mod,
@JakeTheDogg for the landing with disabled aircraft collisions,
@EternalDarkness for the stretched lights from his M.Corp Tornado,
And @BogdanX for tips and help

I hope you enjoy!

My next big project will probably be another Bf 109 F-4, but I’ll try to make it as close to 1:1 as I can.
