Kestrel V3.0

525 JellyBean  8.3 years ago

The latest version of the Kestrel multirole variable geometry wing aircraft. This version features a bunch of good stuff: new inlets and cockpit, new weapons, improved avionics (full 180 degree front radar) and upgraded wings that can take any maneuver you can pull off! (not as sleek as the old ones but these dont wobble)

But first, i need to thank @baallzebub and @Toco for their custom parts i used: Toco's modded cockpit (180¤ front radar) and baallzebub's custom AGMs.
Thank you a whole bunch guys!

Now, to the business!

Controlls:
AG1: Paramount 1
AG2: Paramount 2
AG3: AGM 1
AG4: AGM 2
AG5: infernos
AG6: AA missile dumb
AG7: Rocketpod & Boom25 dumb
AG8: Turn everything on/off
VTOL: Moves wings
Trim: Trim

Paramounts:
Basically, a piece with a parachute, a camera and a Boom 50 attached to it.
Press 1 to release the whole contraption and open that parachute and let it fall to the ground slowly or press 1 again to release the chute from the mount and let the bomb fall freely. Usefull for precision bombing. Note: Always use AG 1 before AG 2. you can use the Boom 50s without useing the mounts.

AGM:
An air-to-ground missile with more punch than infernos.
Just select infernos, lock on, fire and then press AG 3. Second AGM in AG 4.
The missiles have a large turning radius, so faceing your target is advised.

I think thats all for now, enjoy!
