grumman f6f hellcat

21.4k RedHawk  9.7 years ago

I wasn't pleased with my original hellcat, so I made this one, glad I did too! It flies great, I fixed the problem of the shaking while rolling or pitching, but had to give up some maneuverability. I also improved the looks a little bit. history: the Grumman hellcat was a replacement for the wildcat as a carrier based fighter. it competed with the faster vought corsair for that position. however the corsair had landing problems which the hellcat did not.

    Yeah you upload a cockpit and name it challenge then with that cockpit you design a plane around it so when it's uploaded it counts as a successor so you can see it easyer
