Auto Credit Based on marcox43's M.A Red Arrow A5

the new version of the Red Arrow, as many requested, I made the cockpit larger, and as result I reduced some drag(wich is kinda weird). Maneuverability was improved and some minor drag reduction, resulting in a faster aircraft. also did some aestethic changes :)
As ever, this aircraft can be equipped with various weapon configurations. I hope you enjoy this aircraft.

    @ZHUAREVONI the wings are hidden inside the fuselages that mimic a real wing.
    I know about the symetric problem, I put semi-symetric on the wingtips for the new one to compensate, although heavy use of Trim(new feature to come) is required.
    So it's a 60's design type...hmm, interesting. that might come in handy with the new decals.

    @marcox43 i still testing it, it's better maintain the original 10º of pitch, because i have seen that the plane don't have ''wings''
    when you set parts with wing physics automatically set on ''symmetric airfoil config'' that make loose the control at high AoA's

    i use the engine config to max="1.5" and powerMultiplier="0.8" for a 60's fighter plane

    @ZHUAREVONI ok, I'll take note, although engine power nerf would be not a good idea, considering the competition(current power is twin 21000lbf engines, same as the A-6 Intruder), but I'll try messing with all the other stuff and see how it goes. thank you very much for your feedback!

    hmm i like the design, but i have to change some angles config, try to put this:

    elevator: pitch 15-20º roll 10º
    flaps: 50º for more lift
    rudder: 20º
    aileron: maintain 15º or reduce do 10º (this fix the problem at pitch and roll)

    move a little more forward the main landing gears (this make the plane take off at minor speed, because the nose goes up more easily)

    reduce jet engine power (for more realism)
