Have you thought about making it a true flying wing? (No hidden vertical stabilizer)
I know SP doesn't really like that but it might be possible with FT stabilization
@OwO Sort of? A leading-edge flap looks like a standard control surface (i.e. F-16, F/A-18) while a slat creates a gap between itself and the wing (i.e. F-14, A-4).
The terms are often used interchangeably though.

"Some of the first wind-tunnel studies indicated that buffet could be alleviated or reduced through deflection of wing leading-edge and trailing-edge flaps... (Friend & Sefic, 1972, p.3)."
.
"The wings have leading- and trailing-edge flaps... (Friend & Sefic, 1972, p.4)."
.
"Deflection of the leading-edge flap produced some delay in buffet onset... (Friend & Sefic, 1972, p.12)."
.
Table 1. (Physical Characteristics of the F-104 Airplane) refers to leading-edge flaps (Friend & Sefic, 1972, p.16).
.
Figure 2. (F-104 wing panel) refers to the control surfaces on the leading-edge of the wing as leading-edge flaps (Friend & Sefic, 1972, p.20).
I'm really surprised I haven't seen someone plug a controller into their computer to try this track yet. Granted, I'm not sure how much time you would gain with precise throttle control with SP physics.
That being said, this is an awesome run. You were definitely driving on the limit
-(AngleOfAttack/50)*clamp01(ActivateX=true)
Activation Group X will disable the stabilization
Or alternatively,
-(AngleOfAttack/(ActivateX=true ? 200 : 50))
Activation Group X will decrease the stabilization by changing 50 to 200
Hopefully that let's it cobra since the FBW tries to stop you from doing that
@TheFlightGuySP You can definitely tell that it was designed with a very specific purpose in mind. Unfortunately, turning was not that purpose :P
@OkaNieba It is pretty difficult, but you just need practice. Using trim is pretty much necessary and full flaps is not required (or reccomended). Try to maintain around 370 km/h and make a VERY shallow approach with barely any AOA. You'll need a higher throttle than you think too, probably 20-30%.
@TheCommentaryGuy That is just angle of attack. Best way to get it is to make your wings liftScale=1 or less and have your COL and COM relatively close together. Hidden wings in the leading edge extensions also help a lot.
This plane is stable with AOA because the slats are aerodynamically functional and have liftScale=-1 and the FBW also helps.
The missile finds out what direction it is currently going
From that it finds out what it needs to do to go the direction it wants to go
If it still isn't going exactly in the direction it wants to go, it will find out what it needs to do to correct its course
I think
Mirage III/V or 2000?
Now that's an X-Wing

Please don't turn me into a non-delta wing aircraft-
Oh
This is fine actually

@Carsonkiddy2 RPG=Rounds Per Gun
Aren't the tickets crazy expensive?
FALKEN+Delphinus kind of vibe going on
SP is just not realistic
We dont have heatseekers at all
Still waiting for my flight from KLAX to JZRO

@OwO The 747 has Krüger flaps which are different from slats and leading edge flaps

groza :o
GUNNER, SABOT, TANK! TRAVERSE... LEFT! 1200 METERS! FIRE!
NEXT TARGET!
gladiator lookin thing
Congrats
@Mrgoofy that would help
ok

@CL125 o_o
Oh hey its the old livery
Fly by wire
Add -(AngleOfAttack/50) to your elevators' input
You can make 50 smaller to increase stability or larger to decrease stability

@SPairforce That's one of its nicknames
It was also called Erdnagel, which is German for ground nail, particularly the kind for tents
Average camel fan vs S.E.5a enjoyer

That is a very nice legacy hornet with a pretty cool livery
@Spitfirelad05 sure
Gonna need a new change of underwear after 2:37

@TheCommentaryGuy The little drift?

We can't say the word but I never thought about what the ruling on using the logo is...
I saw a huey today :P

@Bo1233 Thanks for the correction lol
