Sa-2 Samson by Stick

1,334 Stick  1.9 years ago

The Aerospatiale SA-2 Samson is a human rotorwing general utility aircraft designed to carry out mostly non-combat missions, although still decently armed with door machineguns, 2 rocket pods, and 3 diffrent missile types. It is the workhorse of RDA operations on Pandora, used to transport cargo and personnel to and from isolated sites. A hook point for slingloading operations allows the Samson to carry extra or oversized cargo externally.

This Sa-2 is a modification outfitted with 2 Aim-9s, 4 AGM-114s and 2 experimental "Seeker" missiles. The door machine gun is used specifically for air to ground, and is not suited for any air to air (because of the Y axis being inverted, idk why).
I wanted to do it for a while, but now i watched the new avatar and became inspired to bulid it.

Instructions:
BEFORE STARTING UP THE ENGINE BE SURE TO PUT VTOL IN 0.5! NOT DOING SO WILL OVERSPEED THE PROPELLER
AG5: Open door
Trim: Change propeller pitch
VTOL: Change Blade Angle

CREDITS:
@GuyFolk: For navigation displays

(I'm sorry, i forgot his name. I will fill it later): Center Alt. Ball display

    @Aarav I forgot to type here, you're supposed to use 0.5VTOL up so you get the lift without overspeeding. This aircraft is heavy and you can't take off without manual pitch control. You have a RPM meter in the plane's cockpit (next to the throttle)

    Could you fix the breaking of the propeller at 100% throttle?
