EF-18D Viper Fly-By-Wire

Auto Credit Based on Homemade1's EF-18D Viper

Flight model is broken after the 1.10 patch due to scaled cockpit block, still flyable lol

Hi

I think I have developed a bad habit...
I just want to add fly-by-funky-tree to all aircraft I've come across, especially the beautiful one.
And I just can't stop myself.

This is my modification of Homemade's EF-18 Viper.
Considering this is Homemade's signature aircraft (according to bio), I have no reason except give it a go.

Not much changed in term of appearance.
All I did is just overhaul it's flight model to be more controllable and fly even easier, animate all control surfaces and add bright afterburner.

Now I think this plane is complete. (except canopy, but it would be better to wait for the glass part update)

Controls:
-AG1: Deploy tail hook.
-AG3: Fold wings.(Folding wings while flying is not recommend, plane still flyable but less stable)
-AG8: Toggle angle of attack limiter.(It's on by default, disabling aoa limiter to gain more maneuverability but bleed more air speed and less stable)
-trim to trim

ENJOY!!!
