OVERVIEW

Have you ever dreamed of piloting your very own aircraft, soaring across oceans and exploring the skies in complete freedom? If so, DIOMEDEA is your perfect choice. With its elegant, streamlined design and exceptional range, it lets you travel wherever your heart desires.


DIOMEDEA means Albatross in Latins, it's a light jet that easy to handle and beginner-friendly, making it ideal for those looking to enjoy the thrill of flying. However, it does not feature any flight assistance systems, so solid piloting skills are still required.

STARTUP PROCEDURE

  • make sure the Battery is on (it should be from start)
  • Turn on the Fuel Bump and wait for the indicator to reach the maximum

  • Turn on the Engine and also wait for the indicator

Pretty easy right?


NAVIGATION SCREEN


Pretty easy too


CONTROL

Take Off Engine on, Throttle max, Flaps down, speed up to ~50knt, and the plane will take off by itself👍
Landing also Flaps down, slow down to ~60knt, but you need to land it urself

AG1
AG2
AG3 Canopy
AG4 NAV lights
AG5 BCN lights
AG6 TAXI lights
AG7 LND lights
AG8 Battery

*If the Battery (Activate8) is off, the lights wont turn on


NOTE

WEIGHT

Well i actually design it to be a very light aircraft that a bit heavier than Cessna, but due to my skill issue that i forgot to edit the parts mass so the final weight is much higher than i thought🥀

WHEEL TURNING

According to the Landing Gear layout, turning this aircraft on ground would be kinda difficult, through i have already try my best to recover it, but it seems not getting better

TRIM

This time i didnt put that much FT on flying performance, as the result, you will need to adjust Trim frequently if you want to fly stable

    Its kinda hard to tell how to do it, but i got some tips here. First, always remember to edit the partCollisionResponse to false, second, make sure the connect between parts and shock is clear, each shock should only connent with two parts, third, i suggest you to add torque arm to assist the shock connection. I have modded a F-35 with custom LG, you can refer to This

    Had a question about custom landing gear, how do you make it more durable, especially with the resizable wheel. Im trying to make working landing gear but it keeps collapsing on itself unless im in slow motion

    this could honestly be a great recon aircraft, short takeoff, easy handling, performs well at high altitude, low stall speed, it's perfect
