Aesthetics: 3.5 / 5
The colors have not been modified compared to the parts supplied, and they are not the most apt, but the shape of the plane flows in a fairly harmonious way. The fittings are good, and the parts blend in a linear way. Except the six petrol tanks under the big engines. Hugly, and look like a fist in one eye. This is made worse by the use as a support for the cart. This part of the project alone lowers the vote a lot. Sin. Good idea to place the machine gun in the nose using an air intake as a fairing. Too bad that the machine gun is not anchored and falls on the track, also causing other problems (see below under the heading takeoff). White wheels are simply too much for my eyes.
Armament: 4/5
Various, also includes countermeasures and two missiles for defense from other airplanes. Too bad that the machine gun that falls on the track alone forced me to eliminate it from the counts. It could be a 5/5
Takeoff: 3.5 / 5
How the aircraft was supplied is impossible. The machine gun falling down hampers the movement and causes the deviation of the route on the runway. Eliminating the jet takes off in a fairly soft (and this brings the vote relatively high) but very lazy (see below under the heading). The rotation takes place at around 500 mph, really too much though.
Flight: 3/5
Decent speed, decent roll speed, but not enough agility on the vertical plane. Recall from a dive is a nightmare and the turning radius is also affected. Unfortunately there is no aerodynamic brake (see below, landing heading). The stall speed is relatively high.
Landing: 0.5 / 5
Made incredibly difficult in part by laziness (but not too much) but above all by the lack of aerodynamic brakes, which complicit the slowness with which the plane loses speed even without an engine requires a track as long as that of the space shuttle. The 15% aircraft is just in the air (with the trim all the way down) but still flies at 320 mph. Landing us is not really affordable for everyone.
TOTAL 14.5/25
on takeoff I just have the ag buttons ready to eject as soon as it deviates from the centre of the runway @Baldovino
The pod work, and the plane flies, so the entry is valid. Take off is really triky. Extensive tests at the end of the challenge. Thanks for your entry. :)
