Trainer Plane for Trainer Plane Challenge

35.1k IzzyIA  7.0 years ago
Auto Credit Based on FASTFLIGHT's TRAINER PLANE CHALLENGE!

This is for the Trainer Plane Challenge, pretty simple plane to fly. VTOL for flaps, action group 1 for emergency parachute, action group 2 for increased yaw control, and everything else is like a normal plane. The plane can fly a low of about 40 mph with flaps down and a high of around 355 with flaps up. It stalls at about 38 mph. The cameras 1,2, and 4 are for different views while flying, and cameras 3 and 5 are for interior view. I would recommend using action Group 2 when you want more yaw control when flying, or if you lose a propeller in flight, so you can try to counteract the unbalanced thrust. And obviously, if you find yourself in a pickle, never be afraid to give action Group 1 it’s time to shine.

The plane can lose either one wing on one side, or one wing from each side and continue flying. If it loses two wings on one side, then I would recommend action Group 1. If you lose a propeller on one side during flight, simply make sure you have action Group 2 activated and you should be able to fly, but if you lose the propeller on the ground, the plane cannot take offbecause it will spin out of control at low speeds with only one prop.

By the way, the reason I have dual propellers on the side instead of just one at the front is so that you can break as hard as you want without face planting the plane and breaking the prop, which was a big problem for my original bush plane and many others’ tail draggers.

P.S. This is meant for the “high” physics setting
