Liberty X120 Mod.3
This is an incomplete build, cause I ran out of parts (349) to meet the mobile-friendly requirement. I will link the completed version once it is completed. I experimented a bit with fly-by-wire systems on this one, but I am not well enough familiarized yet with the XML functions and variables to do so: That said, I did end up using @tomlin5412 's line of code for the elevator motor, which can be found Here-> https://www.simpleplanes.com/Forums/View/1141339/some-codes-I-made along with a few other useful XML lines.
The full version will be tailored more towards VR and will have a much nicer cockpit, however VR users will only have stick, throttle, and eject functions on this one. _
AG1: Bail
AG2: Internal Missile stores
AG3: Jettison Pylons (internal stores will not jett if deactivated)
AG7: Arresting Hook
AG8: Wingtip Lights
Performance characteristics make this one more of an interceptor than a fighter. Ideally, the final version will be a bit more maneuverable if I can figure out how to make control surface motors that correct for drift and oscillation, tuned correctly to the correct thrust and velocity. Maybe some PIDs, I just haven't figured that out yet.
Anyhow, consider this the experimental Beta of the final. Have fun!
