Not so simple to operate, but when you see a barrage of Boom 50’s taking out a convoy or fleet, from afar, it is worth it…

- AG1 to o 4 to activate the engines.
- Throttle for thrust (actually its propeller pitch).

Cockpit view - nose turret (used for missile targeting in any direction).
Camera1 - Cockpit view.
Camera2 - Gun turret.
Camera3 - Cannon Sights (used for the Boom 50 auto-cannon).
Camera4 - Cannon sighter (1st Boom50).
Camera5 - Care packages.

AG5 - Activates VTOL and TRIM for Cockpit targeting + In game targeting and missile system (COCKPIT VIEW).

AG6 - Activates VTOL and TRIM for Gun and Cannon targeting (CAMERA 2 or 3) - Turn on Air to Ground fire. Fire cannon using weapons system.

AG7 - Drop care packages (Landing gear down to open rear bay).

AG8 - Turns off FLAPS and TRIM adjustment. Turn this off when AG5 or 6 is being used.

-------------------------------------------------------------

The basic idea is to set the plane to slowly circle a target giving you time to take aim and take them out. This is done by slowing one of the engines.

Step by Step Instructions:
1. AG1 to 4 on.
2. Throttle 100%
3. Head to target area (aim for the right side area - approx. 2 to 4 kms distance).
4. Altitude around +3000 ft.
5. Level out, deactivate AG 2 to 3.
6. Decrease Throttle for AG1 to start circling.
7. AG8 off, AG6 on.
8. Switch to Camera 3.
9. Use VTOL and TRIM to aim.
10. Place the green dot dead on the target.
11. FireWeapons (fire the Boom-50’s) to shoot using in game air to ground system.
12. Deploy countermeasures as needed.

Other: - Use the Cockpit view and AG5 on (AG8 off), to rotate and target any enemies, either air or ground.

Notes:
- 20 Boom50 shell’s loaded.
- Option to replace the external tanks with cruise missiles, as needed.
- “-LandingGear" for landing lights - off when land gear is raised - finally!

    @SpiritusRaptor
    Could you make an even more ‘refined’ mobile version? It lags too much to pull parts off like the words. No detail is perfectly fine for me lol but I can’t do that to this with the lag

    It was still a little choppy for me, but it was defiantly an improvement over the performance of the higher part count on my device. Thanks for the effort, I'll keep pulling pieces off until I can get a stutter free flight. Excellent work, as always.
