SB-92 Stealth Launch
This aircraft is my depiction of Matchbox's SB-92 Stealth Launch.
Credits:
Controls:
- AG1 = Jettison Weapons
- AG2 = Formation Lights
- AG3 = Beacon Lights
- AG4 = Refueling Probe & Refueling Mode
- AG5 = Afterburners
- AG8 = HUD On/Off
VTOL = Refueling Approach Distance
TRIM = Trim/Flaps
Note:
In Refueling Mode,
Select your target plane/tanker as an Air-To-Air target and hit AG4.
Throttle as well as airbrakes are automatically active.
Default distance = 35 meters
VTOL up = 55 meters
VTOL down = 15 meters
It will probably be a bit farther tho
Approach from behind the tanker. If you get ahead of it, disable AG4 and brake until you are behind again.
It works with any tanker speed but I usually run at max, controls are more crisp.
Also, try not to move side to side too rapidly or it will mess it up.
During Take-off,
The Take-off speed is 300 mph Pitch up at this point or Trim Up,
or it will stick to the ground due to Ground Effect caused by the Wings.
The Take-off speed by then will be 500mph+.
Fun Fact:
You can use this plane to complete the Ground Speed Challenge,
just Max the Throttle and enable AG5 and zoom to the finish line!
