*FULL INSIDE* Westland Lynx TOW missile

15.9k Charlie2613  5.6 years ago

READ INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
Westland Lynx fitted with 8 anti armour TOW missiles as used by British forces in the first Gulf war and other conflicts.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westland_Lynx

AG1+VTOL up = Side doors open
AG8 = Engines off
TRIM UP = for cruise only, increases speed and trims for fast cruise flight, have throttle above 60% for better controllability.

Sorry for the heavy part count but my orginal low part count Lynx that I was really excited about seemed to flop in upvotes so I went back to the drawing board. AW Wildcat will come soon.

SAME BUILD WITH ROTOR FROM NEW UPDATE:

    The aircraft doesn't want to turn when you bank left or right- it just starts to slide (slip or skid) even at high speed. Even with the use of yaw it's still hard to tell if you're flying in lateral trim.

    Add some aerodynamic drag to the tail.

    Otherwise, pretty good.

    It has the new hollow blocks but the rotor blade looks nothing like the lynx so there wasn't much point using the new rotor part just because it's new. Although adding the new rotor should only take a few seconds if it's preferred @temporaryaccount

    I Wasn't sure the new rotor was suitable for this build, the new rotor head and blade doesn't look like that on the lynx, I also like to be able to adjust the handling a bit and try to give the helicopter some blade flex @Hyattorama

    Great build. Just curious though; why didn’t you use the new rotor parts from the update?
