This is the A-4E Skyhawk in VMA-311 Tomcats squadron colors. Pretty happy with the turnout.

This thing is beautiful, Love the detailing on it.
Yes, someone finally made the marines version OORAH!
@EngineerOtaku noted, thank you
Nice!
@Falkenwut It's very trial and error so be prepared to jump into sandbox over and over until you're satisfied lol
@EngineerOtaku Thanks for your input! Had this problem a few times or so in my previous models. Will take note on fixing it for future models :)
Cute lil' Scooter. Pitch response seems to become sluggish when full elevator is used. I reduced the range of motion on them to 20 degrees (default is 35 in XML) and that seems to fix the problem, so the best range of motion is between 25-30 degrees. I've had this problem...once or twice, but usually with roll and not pitch.

Nice job. :)
