Leonardo RO-7 Tyton

Leonardo Aeronautics RO-7 "Tyton"

The grandfather of Stealth Technologies

I do highly suggest this mod to use realistically the Recon Camera feature Click here

The Tyton is a single-engined, propeller-driven motorglider that was developed for battlefield observation and tactical reconaissance.
Its Camera Equipment, located under the fuselage, allows it a 360° view over the entire area of interest.

This plane's performance might be a delusion to some, but don't forget that this is not a dogfighting machine!

In order to use the Recon Camera Feature, press AG 3.
The aircraft will start circling over the desired area, banking on the left side to hide its muffled engine exhaust flames.
Use Mouse as Joystick to control the Camera.

    I’m very impressed with the target circling system. I wish I figured that out earlier for use on gunships.

    Very good construction, I like how the wings bent by the movement of the air. A little objection maybe to the elevators, I think it might have been more reasonable to have the whole panel moving and not just the trim tab. Happy flights
