A6M5 Zero “Shiro”

285 supaoranges  3.5 years ago
Auto Credit Based on supaoranges's a6m zero simple 12

This is the final update for my simple zero project. You may notice that there is not whole lot of detail on the outside of this plane, that is because I built this craft with a 1/4 cockpit interior with working gun/bomb sight. This is a 1:1 scale of the A6M zero fighter, to include weight, fuel, engine power, and ammo. It has working flaps (vtol slider), Type 97 7.7mm machine guns (front cowling), Type 99-1 20mm cannons (wing mount), two wing mount 60kg (130lbs) bombs (ag5 to drop both at the same time), external fuel tank (ag6 to drop), and navigation lights (ag1). I plan to upload different variants of this fighter for people to choose the one they like best. To stay true to my goal to build a replica zero in 100 parts or less, this plane is a nice even 100 parts. Which should make it very easy to use on mobile devices. Feel free to work off this plane and reupload it, all I ask is for credit for its base. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me in the comments. Happy flying, enjoy! :)
