Scout Miro

227k jamesPLANESii  2.0 years ago

A generic plane! (wow)






The Scout Miromoro is basically a mix of all of the GA planes, made between the 1940s and 1970s. The exterior is mainly based off the Piper Cherokee, with a bit of Robin, Beechcraft, Grumman and Mooney. And the interior is based off the 1950s Cessna interiors with a bit of Cherokee again. The outcome is basically the most generic GA plane you've ever seen... XD


The aircraft depicted here is a mostly unmodified example, but with a retrofitted IFR radio stack and a repainted exterior, probably done in the 90s. It's engine is an early Continental 0-470 with a power output of 225 HP, with a Hatzel 80" propeller attached. I have tried to replicate the power and thrust output as best I can to the limited data that is available on the Internet. Performance is mostly based on the Cessna 180 (with the same power plant) and the Piper Cherokee Warrior (with the same wing and overall design).


Features:

  • Fully functioning, VR ready interior (a bit to high performance cost to be curated though)
  • Realistic (as SP will allow) engine management, including mixture, realistic fuel burn and RPM adjustment
  • Detailed model including modeled engine, opening doors and cowling, movable sun visors, fully functional cockpit (or at least for what SP will allow), moving oleo suspension, smooth aileron movement
  • Checklists :D
  • Parking brake that uses the wheel brakes
  • Pitch and rudder trim
  • Fully IFR capable thanks to Spillo letting me use his radio stack from his Cessna 172 (Don't ask me how it works, it's just magic to me XD)
  • Rivets!

Controls:

  • Act 1: Open doors
  • Act 2: Open cowling
  • Act 3: Taxi lights
  • Act 4: Landing lights
  • Act 7: Starter motor (But you will need to push the mixture and prop in and add a little throttle to getvthe engine started)
  • Act 8: All the other lights, and the master
  • VTOL flaps
  • Trim: Pitch trim only (there is a hidden lever behind the rudder trim if you want to adjust it and you're on PC/mobile. If you're in VR, just use the wheel at the bottom)

All other controls require something to be clicked in the cockpit!


Pics and Gifs!

Placing parts in SP be like

Again, credit to Spillo for the radios!
Also credit to BaconEggs for disabling the drag, so it should run a little smoother on low end devices than the performance cost suggests. ;)

Enjoy!

    @MrCOPTY The main engine's input is limited to 0.1 and it's horsepower is 10x tye usual so that ut spools up faster, also it has 7 other jet engines to simulate the prop wash and P factor and stuff.

    @Nerdsta307 I just really like building and giving heaps of attention to detail on my builds, and that ends up skyrocketing the part count lol. While the part counts generally are very high, I try to build things in a way that I have high detail but things are made as efficiently as possible. I generally try to make lower part versions of my builds where some details are removed or simplified, but if you've followed me for mobile friendly stuff, you've probably followed me for the wrong reason 😅

    @jamesPLANESii I really like your planes and I'm following you now here on simple planes but why do your planes have so many parts? Now? Why some users can't run this on Android only on PC But my cell phone is very powerful and can run planes with 1500 parts

    Also we still can’t do differential braking besides with airbrakes—bummer since a lot of small aircraft have free castering nose wheels and can only steer on the ground with brakes!

    Ok when I saw “parking brake that actually uses the wheel brake” I was really confused. So I tried to figure out how you did it by checking the wheel’s xml but then I realized the buttons input is just brake! Genius, I never would have thought of that.

    Unfortunately though, it’s not exactly perfect because it still slides a little—the engine power is stronger than the brakes and increasing the braketorque is obviously bad so pistons might still be better.

    They really need to let us use ft expressions for braking power but still nice idea, I’m definitely going to use that
