The Swallow
well I had to come up with some kind of an acceptable name, right?
other than that it's basically just a random bird
About
Its name says it's a jet, but it just looks that way because they're ducted E-fans (aka three rotator powered pairs of wings)they just look a lot more impressive than without that unnecessary weight and drag producing bunch of metal around them. It has canards, just because they're more efficient than traditional elevators and I like how it looks.
Speeds
Rotation Speed: 200km/h (108 knots) IAS
Approach Speed: ~230 km/h (124 knots) IAS
Landing Speed: 215 km/h (216 knots) IAS
Stall Speed: ~175 km/h (95 knots) IAS
Parts I "borrowed" from other planes
- The artificial horizon is from @GuianLorenzo 's LearJet 75
VR
I don't have a way of testing if my planes are VR-compatible, but I tried following as many of the curation criteria as I could.
Additional Notes
- If it flies weirdly on a keyboard, please just say it in the comments, because I
use a Logitech flight yoke and like all of by other recent builds it's mostly
optimised for a Joystick or mouse yoke. - It's quite vibrate-y above about 400 km/h (216 knots) IAS, I have no Idea how
to fix it
also yes the fuselage is way too narrow for the wingspan but I'm not an engineer so i obviously can't know
