Avro 555 Bison MK.I

5,522 GabrielFangster70  3.1 years ago

During the post ww1 Era, Avro produced very few naval aircraft, a notable exception being the Type 555 Bison. Designed as a spotter for naval gunfire and for general reconnaissance duties, the ungainly Bison was first flown in 1921 and delivered at a slow rate until 1927. Its career was brief, with retirement coming in 1929. It was replaced by the more streamlined Fairey IIF. An attempted seaplane conversion was not a success.
To be honest with you this plane originally wide like crap and all of my testing but I found out that there’s a way and I put into gyroscopes and then there’s a way that you can turn bear and the way it turned better is my one turn to the direction you wanna go and then you turn the yard to the same direction as the role and then you keep it at the same direction until until it’s at the location You want it to be, then. You let go of the yaw. This is one of the airplanes that that turn left and right using the help of the yaw And not the pitch. So keep a note on that. AG1 to drop bomb, AG2 to activate uto aiming tail gunner that i stole from a random person’s b29 build(just kidding i didn’t, i was just lazy).
