F104 Starfighter

7,098 Ricky915  3.9 years ago

Greetings everybody! I initially just wanted to build a rough model of the f104 for some test flights and fool around for a little bit, after deciding it looked ugly I started adding some details to make it more appealing, then one thing led to another, 24 hours later I've actually built a full scale f104g, and I couldn't resist sharing this with y'all. Being a famous, or dare I say, notorious aircraft, I will cut straight to the controls. standard flight control, VTOL controls the flaps, go down to engage em; 1 activates the 20mm, and 2 releases the fuel tanks if you choose to have them attached. To attach the various weapons, just snatch them off the carts and slap them on one of the pylons, if you choose to have 3 of the 900kg bombs, I suggest using the middle pylon at the front instead of the two next to it for balance. If parts of the fuel tank get stuck on the cart, redo, set the driver to main, then pull the whole thing off from the cart, it is that easy. Have fun, and safe flight!
