PLEASE READ

The F-1XX Viper Wasp is a modified variant of the iconic default aircraft known as the Wasp. The Viper Wasp improves upon certain areas of the Wasp such as maneuverability, speed, maximum weapon loadout, cockpit layout among other things.

As it relates to maneuverability and speed, the aircraft now has 3 dimensional thrust vectoring as well as an adaptive engines that allow for Post Stall Maneuvers and speeds up twice that of the Wasp's.

The aircraft also has a redesigned cockpit which now has one large digital screen showing all necessary information. As it relates to all controls via Activation groups, each button in the cockpit has their various indications.

Few things to Note:

  1. I did design the landing gear for carrier landings but be gentle with them nonetheless, especially on low physics settings.

  2. Apply airbrakes will invoke a pitch up motion so always prepare to counteract it with a pitch down input.

  3. Some missiles located close to the airframe have delayed ignitions so once you've launched them, try not to make any maneuvers that make cause your aircraft fly into or make contact with the weapon.

  4. Going at high speeds above Mach 1 will also invoke a pitch up motion so try to counteract that with trim inputs

I hope you all enjoy flying this aircraft. It can actually hold its own in a PSM fight :)
