Grf1 Wright Flycraft

111 Stickguy  4.4 years ago

Part of the Maywright war aircraft grade 1 — bundle 1, a series of aircraft reminiscent of the time between WWI and WWII. Detailed specifications in the comments.
It features cannons instead of wing guns to facilitate PVP dogfights through the multiplayer mod.

The Wright federation's primary fighter and torpedo bomber during the humongous war, its only flaw was its lack of speed, which it compensated with a turn rate faster than that of any other fighter of the war (except for the Matevosian-Bagrat, which it outclassed in every other aspect of their performance.)

Use recommendations:
Removal and/or reconfiguration of the secondary armament is advised, it was included to display the weapons in a fitting colour palette.

When compared to other G1 fighters, the Flycraft has a good climb rate and a fantastic turn time, but it is sorely lacking in flat speed, during dogfights it is best to climb while your enemies are too far away, and only chase if you have a height advantage to accelerate your plane, and when an enemy tails you the best option you have is to turn hard and stay close.
