Panavia Tornado GR1, with variable wings n bombs
I don't often do replicas, and definitely not jets but had to build one of my favourite aircraft. I hope I did the "tonka" some justice. i know the wings are a bit wrong. she is in first gulf war guise.
TO USE, 1 activates engines, 2 for gear (fold it forwards, as better for weight distribution. up on VTOL slider) 3 for variable sweep wings, remember to centre VTOL after folding gear. fully swept is best looking at just a smidge off the bottom of the slider. 4 for reverse thrust, 5 & 6 to drop ordinance.
tested on low settings.
she flies a little touchy, noses up at 100% throttle in forward swept, down on fully swept. takes a little to get used to using her. but very rewarding once you do.
*please rate, comment and check out my other contraptions. thank you*

Dev AndrewGarrisonYou are a genius. Took me a little while to figure out what the rotator was for in the middle of the wing, but it cancels out the wing sweep so that the bombs will always point forward. Once again, extremely well done airplane.9.9 years ago

6,551 NassassinQuite a bit of features packed in this little guy. I set the wing sweep to velocity to keep it from going forward too far.9.9 years ago

4,857 Katrina@TheDocHoliday only way I can snap em is if I sweep them the wrong way and then turn hard, even then they bitterly hang in there. Very odd indeed.9.9 years ago

2,351 Oblivion@Katrina This is a great replica. Flies good too. Replicas are always the hardest trying to balance looks with performance. This was a job well done9.9 years ago
