Simple iOS iphone “Bomber challenge” build, 100 part mobile friendly.
The FW-190 piggy backed on to the V for Vengence 1, flying bomb (Mistel).
As the allieds started bombing the permanent launching ramps, a solution was found by attaching the V1 under the FW-190 and with use of the jettisionable trolley to launch the V1 and the airspeed would then start the Ram pulse Jet. The V1 was then flown and aimed towards the target where the pilot would then detach the V1 from the frame under the FW-190 using explosive bolts and hopefully return to base while the V1 continued to the target. The pilot was then able to land using the normal undercarraige.
You can raise undercarraige if you wish before take off and it is steerable on the ground using yaw. 100% power is advisable at take off with trim right back and as soon as rear wheels of trolley start to lift use (2) to release the trolley. Reset trim to your preference and use air-ground option to give you a rough aiming point with the 500lb bomb encased in the V1 fuselage and fly towards your target. To release, trim back and then enter a shallow dive. Use (1) to release the V1, this starts the onboard gyro and detaches after 2.5 seconds. You can use camera views 1 or 2 to follow the V1 in and also provide some guidance however be aware that this will be mirrored on the FW-190 to some degree. After impact you can then hopefully transfer back to your airctaft and land using normal procedures.
