V1 Flying Egg (with launcher)

302 CrackheadEngineer  5.4 years ago
Auto Credit Based on Stalinity's 11 foot challenge (Closed)

a short and pudgy version of the V1 Flying Bomb with a ramp and rocket cart launching system. Ag1 releases the cart from the ramp. Ag2 releases the BuzzEgg from the cart and activates the internal gyro. Ag3 releases the primary wings. Launch instructions: throttle to 100% and wait 10 seconds for the engines to spool up. activate Ag1 to release the cart. once the cart is clear of the ramp, activate Ag2 to release the payload. the gyro makes the plane go vertical, so pitch down to fly horizontally. once a speed of 380 mph is reached, the plane is stable enough to have the gyro deactivated (press Ag2 again). once close to your target, you may press Ag3 to detach wings to lock your trajectory. like the real thing, this thing is not quite as accurate as anticipated.
