Lockheed P-63(Wait jet?)

630 YangzhouAvionic  5.6 years ago
Auto Credit Based on YangzhouAvionic's Lockheed P-63(Wait what?)

Special thanks to @randomusername for help.
My first attempt to make a hybrid plane, and also a forward-swept wings aircraft.
AG1 to activate jet engines.

    Me and you both xml helps a lot with power and weapons but fuel um not so much@YangzhouAvionic

    @CptJacobson yeah true. But fuel is usually not a big case for me personally, I ususally use overload... until now I never cared about fuel xd

    @CptJacobson Yeah... I tried the third propeller and it just barely contributed to the speed, so I endes up with a hybrid.

    @YangzhouAvionic The difference with propeller aircraft is that at high speeds the propeller loses efficiency, and therefore the available power decreases with altitude.

    And actually the way I keep fuel high is high altitude the higher you are the les fuel you burn you see cool air expands more when heated than warm air. It is the expansion of the air that drives combustion engines. The second reason is the low density of the air. Low density causes low drag and therefore the aircraft flies much faster at high altitude than on low altitude@YangzhouAvionic

    Use weight to fix that depending on how much swep you got start at 100 and work form their in the frontal area of the plane it’s what keeps my planes form pitching up sometimes @YangzhouAvionic

    @CptJacobson yeah , I put jets on an actigroup to act as a booster or its fuel runs fairly fast, the problem for FSW is mainly due to their nature of high lift.

    I personally hate hybrid aircraft their really on fully sometimes I got one to work with trim were both jet and props work in unison and as for foward swept wings dude their aloe better then boxy straight wings@YangzhouAvionic

    @randomusername IDK I got a mod for it, but I forgot to do smth to it. Most forward swept wings dosent make sense anyways.
