Atlas C-890

1,065 TrashpandaShinji  4.0 years ago

Atlas is the Civilian subsidiary of Fairlady Aviation.

In 1975, Fairlady was undergoing development on the F-52 and was running low on funds due to the project. The head CEO of Fairlady decided to open a new subsidiary of the company for civilian and commercial purposes. On August 27, 1975, the subsidiary was named Atlas, and the very first plane was made. The C-890 was a modified variant of the F-39 made to be a civil aircraft. It sold decently, around Thirty-seven were sold at the end of May in 1977. Still, Fairlady was running low on funds and would have to release a more civilian oriented plane.

This plane has many issues with take off, it will yaw to what ever side it decides.

Pull back on Trim for take-off flaps.

    Two things:
    First, Do you have fine tuner? If you have make the vertical stabilizer bigger and scale it down, that will make the plane more stable at higher speeds.

    Second, The best time to post is 10 hours later, that made a very big difference on how many upvotes and followers i got.

    Good luck!
