I spent four years on this project, but eventually the mechanics of this aircraft surpassed my own understanding. I would greatly appreciate your feedback. I will also do my best to answer any questions you may have.

awesome! glad to see you still making stuff
@pancelvonat would you care to make a version that has an easier start-up sequence?
Would you add the startup procedure to the pre flight instructions lol, this plane is crazy to get a grip of
8 days late but amazing
Doesn't matter if you lost understandingg, still amazing
(Be glad you didn't make an accurate F-105, that thing is extremely confusing)
@Pleco123 Broski, this thing IS mobile friendly. If your looking for potato friendly, grab one from WCAC2
The appearance is restored,The startup mode is also very real,Your four years have not been in vain.
I hope this gets at least 200 upvotes.
4 years paid off! This is amazing!!!!
@pancelvonat YOOO MY MAN I CANT BELIEVE IM SEEING YOU HAHAHAHA
wow beautiful
Can u make a mobile friendly?
Is called Simple Planes, looks inside; DCS. truly impressive work, the detail is something incredible
Wow, just wow
Legendary work, this is exactly what I would expect from a replica of a WWII Pursuit plane. The smooth seamless asthetic, low parts, high detail, and overall presence and WWII vibe that it gives off is above expectations.
@pancelvonat thanks!!!

The mixture control is on the left lever cluster. Look for the red knob. Pull it toward you for lean to cutoff, and push it toward the rear for richer mixture.
RPM control is via a large knob on the side of the lever cluster. It can be set continuously between (pull in for 1800 rpm) and (push in for 3000 rpm).
The magneto is the second largest round switch on the lower left of the switch panel. The starter was originally a foot pedal; a huge square switch is hidden behind the control stick where the foot position was.
@Ntheleader NVM that! To the left of the bottom of the joystick, there’s a large button labeled STARTER
@SuperSuperTheSylph Magnetos are on the left side of the main instrument panel, and the mixture is to the right of throttle. Also, yeah I can’t find the starter. Maybe it’s a throw-prop?
where is the engine starter? i got past all the other steps but i cant find the engine starter
how i can set the mixture on mobile?and where are the magnetos?
Amazing, can't even use it. Great job
Man, that's a nice-lookin' Warhawk!
