FLAKPANZER

(Flugabwehrkanonen-Panzer)
Version I
Basically a tank for destroying airplanes.

Features:

-Working tracks! (credit to @REW for the tracks
https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/vDzf5n/Tank-Chassiswith-real-track )

-Working (?) radar
--> switch to camera-1 for a 360° rotating view of the airspace around you

-2 FLAK guns (just simple, modified wing-guns (actually 6; there are 3 nudged
into each other per gun), nothing special with explosions unfortunatley)

-Lights (you cannot turn them off yet)

-Germany flags , cause that's where the inspiration came from [Flakpanzer
Gepard
]

Controls:

[AG1] to start engine:
--> [Throttle] control engine power
--> [Pitch / Roll] move

[AG2] to start the FLAK - turret:
--> [Trim / VTOL] rotate / elevate the guns in the general direction of the air-
threat
--> [Pitch / Roll] rotate / elevate the guns very precisely, but with a smaller
window of movement (intended for mouse-aim when entering mouse-as-joystick)

[AG3] to start suspension:
--> [Trim] to move the suspension up/down

Additional Info:

The suspension is a bit wobbly and stuff, but it's only Version I so that will hopefully be fixed later.

Warning

Because of the rotators and the engine, this thing can get very loud.

If you have any suggestions what I could do better in later versions, let me know in the comments!

Have fun and happy destroying airplanes :D

    @offensiveplayer it works perfectly on my android. The only thing i would suggest is lowering the noise; possibly add something to the description saying "turn down master volume". Also the turret rotates a little too fast.
