"We were able to take a lot of off the shelf components from other vehicles," said Burnett. "The flight control system was lifted out of (General Dynamics') F-16 design. The engines were out of the (Northrop) T-38, and the nose gear also came off a T-38. And the main gear were from the F-104, if I remember correctly. The ejection seat was from the F-16." To put it all together, tools were pulled from Lockheed's C-5 cargo plane line.
The F-16's flight control system was an important piece of the puzzle, because it was a "fly-by-wire" control system. Since the strange nature of Have Blue design would make the aircraft inherently unstable in flight—more than any human pilot could cope with—it needed a "fly-by-wire" control system to make it work. "Because we knew we had a very unstable vehicle, the F-16 flight controllers made a lot of sense," Burnett said.
The rest of the cockpit layout was decidedly low tech. Aside from the F-16's "side stick" arrangement, the Have Blue aircraft used "a lot of the old-fashioned steam gauges for instrumentation," Burnett explained.
idk, but there might be a write up somewhere that says something like "using the f-16 instrument cluster and the f-5 stick etc" yk what i mean? lots of those kinda aircraft used off the shelf parts
One thing I’ve done which helps my heart go numb is listening to all of spacey Jane’s songs and also just songs in general
Try not let the Instagram algorithm get to your head either take a break from screens they make me more stressed and go spend some time in nature w supportive friends, and find something to get lost in too
Idk
:)
Honestly going thru sum stuff myself
My brain reverts back to thinking about her all the time and all the things I never got to say and the things we had planned but it just wasn’t the best for us in the end
I know it’s different from what your going thru
But something that helped me massively is talking to my close family and especially my auntie and uncle like they helped me see that the future is going to be better and that good things are ahead, while now it’s hell on earth try your best to take some positives, it’s not the same as your situation, but, if I may suggest, when your ready focus on the positives from what has happened and the lessons you can learn and even though that person isn’t there anymore they can still teach you and help you become a better person through your memories
I hope this is ok to say
Please if it’s not just remove it or I can I barely ever log in
:) all the best, take care, deal with it safely :)
Does the fuselage occasionally break behind the main spar? Does it have a ramp for parachutists out the back? Does it occasionally fly around a guy who shouldn’t be anyone’s role model?
If the answer is yes
You probably like planes
Fair call, I’m heavily biased, interesting…@TheCommentaryGuy
Edit wait we can use naughty words?
Edit edit wait are you the group that’s the reason we can’t all be friends
Idk about guns but what does the Vulcan fire? I mean round type, if it’s not depleted uranium I’ll be sad :(
Who tf said the f-14 is the best we all know it’s the Brewster buffalo, also what the hell who said the f-14 is the best?
A-10 has more friendly kills, tell me more?! Also a-10 is hot f-111 isn’t even if it has a better personality I’d still take the a-10 or maybe I wouldn’t
F-22 is beautiful honestly only a spaz would say it’s the best, I don’t think it could go 1v1 with the Brewster buffalo, but overrated? Maybe but only just it’s beautiful
Oh jeez it’s too hot I can’t fire my missiles, naw man idk I thought it was cause they were told not to by higher ups and so were forced into turning dogfights with more manoeuvrable aircraft, crappy situation, I understand they held their own thou
Ok explain the dogfighting thing more, if I have an aircraft that hasn’t got excellent manoeuvrability, it’s gonna get hit by the missile anyway, so why have aircraft at all? Why not send a bunch of long range missiles? Idk man idk <3 peace out interesting discussion
i dont think ive commented on this website for at least a year or more and havent been active on sp, dont take what im gonna say seriously, james ur a try hard bro get a gf, also this games great and if u cant make a door bummer, also wnp i like the fueslage cutting and i also like whatever the hek was goin on w the fueslage shape in that other game that was hot too but games are great
edit: youve made some great planes too
great build!!
also had a look and found this, on wikipedia, about the first flight which was accidental "While gathering speed, a roll-control oscillation caused a fin of the port-side wingtip-mounted missile and then the starboard stabilator to scrape the ground, and the aircraft then began to veer off the runway. The test pilot, Phil Oestricher, decided to lift off to avoid a potential crash, safely landing six minutes later. @FairFireFlight @BogdanX
edit: about the stabilator
sounds good, potentially dumb question but where would you use ball joints?
i havent played sp in a while and i havent played much with hinge rotors but would they do the same job?
mods id do if i had money
2-3in adjustable lift
33in muds
sliders
rear bar
custom bullbar
bash plate
snorkel
inclinometer because is would suit
am i suggesting this to you?
Your builds and understanding of aircraft, physics and realism are insane, im definitely going to try to learn some methods you use in SP thanks for sharing them
not perfect but might help

love the solid axle
love the detail
love the effort and work put into this
princess
that is so sick love the maneuvers
awesome
Cool.
cool paneling, how do the turrets move and not combust
damn
bro sick
damn imagine being a kamikaze pilot with two missions rip :/
also cool i cant wait for them especially the bf110
so cool
best b29 ive ever seen
