P-47 Thunderbolt (Razorback)

9,817 ThunderNova  6.3 years ago

Here we go! This plane was big for me, not only is this thing a flying tub but its a great one too! Another WW2 fighter/attack plane in the books. trim up to use my fuctioning flap system and use VTOl with the Gear key to put away the landing gear. Enjoy!

    The plane looks great, yes it needs stability and also the thunderbolts had 8 MGs not 4

    Thanks for the feedback guys. YES, it doesn't fly the greatest. But I'm still trying to figure out how to better my designs so that they can fly well and look great. I'm open to all suggestions.

    I guess this is proof that the devs feature builds just based on looks. You need to work on the handling on your aircraft. There is no point uploading a build that has nice aesthetics if the functionality suffers.
