NA-1 Eider

3,841 rexinn  5.4 years ago

I originally designed this from the A-6 Intruder, but as I built on, I decided that a VTOL attack plane would be interesting. So here is the final product, The NA-1 Eider. This aircraft is one of my favorites. It is completly capable of taking out the missile destroyers and the flak destroyers. I also saw its use as a fighter and developed the NF-4 King Eider from this. Here's how to takeoff...
1. place the VTOL slider down and go anywhere from 61-100% throttle.
2. Retract gear.
3. Slowly bring the slider up until you can climb w/ the engines horizontal.
4. press AG8(This releases the Gyro) you are now free to fly around but heres what to do when you want to land...
1. Use the airbrakes via Trim(deploy chute via AG1 if necessary).
2. place the VTOL slider all the way down.
3. decrease throttle to around 57-59% throttle(This changes depending on fuel%).
4.Press AG8.
5. Extend Landing Gear.
P.S. The use of gyro helps with stability and Yaw, but dont use it when hovering to attack enemies,its a bit too restrictive. Thanks!
