Auto Credit Based on WinsWings's TigerMorth 1933 (Experimental biplane)
inspired by WinWingsTigerMorth-1933-Experimental-biplane, I've built the Tigermorth "R" 1933.
The R is for the reversed Fuselage layout.
Everything on this plane was available in 1933,
Contra Rotating Propellers,
Liquid cooled Engine,
Flaps,
Bombs,
Piston Struts,
Tailhooks as Wing supports
GPS....
Well maybe not the Piston Struts, Tailhooks, or the GPS.
This is my 1st use of PlanariaLab's Auto Targeting system and I think I did it right....
Controls
Standard WSAD+QE, with Trim and Flaps (VTOL Down)
AG1 for Landing Light
Weapons
Bomb/External Fuel Tanks are dropped with AG3.
AG6 and Selected Target for Gun.
Flight
Take Off with full throttle and Flaps
Land with at least 50% throttle and Flaps and be careful, she stalls below 100 MPH.
Comments Welcome and Enjoy your Flight.

@Type2volkswagen Thanks so much for sending the PDF, I am a big fan of Contra Rotating Props
@WinsWings
Thx, like I said, your A/C inspired it. BTW, This PDF has info and pics showing contra rotating props going back to 1907...

@Type2volkswagen Ouch, that even more uncommon for 1930s. since contra rotating props uses more complex gearbox, which 2 engines are running on a same drive shaft- they mostly came out in the late 40s and 50s with powerful engines (like Tu 95 and Avro Shackleton) - any way ,,, this is a fictional after all, nice work.
This craft is so eye-catching :D
@WinsWings
It's two 3 bladed Propellers
Looks very cool reverse layout. Only small reminder for your info, 5 bladed props are not so common in 1933. Most of them are 2 bladed wooden props, and some 3 bladed ones- even 4 bladed are rare.
Thx
