Hawker P.1030 “Super Tempest”

52.5k Tang0five  5.9 years ago

I keep coming across these beautiful designs by Sidney Camm that unfortunately never left the drawing board. Here’s another - the P.1030 “Super Tempest”. It would have been a beauty to behold too and capable of over 500mph. Sadly it was put aside in favour of developing beautiful looking jet aircraft instead. Tally-ho chaps!

    Cheers buddy, (on iOS anyway!) I move one identical part on top of another and move it down until you get the split so it doesn’t glitch through - then with bits like elevators I move one half forwards/backwards one “notch” on the fine tuner and then one “notch” left / right. As you can see from my wing root it’s not always 100%, good luck! @CALVIN232

    This really good gotta ask how you get the two colours so clean I usually get them flashing together or a gap must say the back wings didn’t need it

    By Jove! Humbled by your generosity once more! @GhostHTX Rather carelessly I’ve arsed around with the prop size and there’s now a disparity that I keep looking at in the profile view. Equally glaringly I’ve missed an air intake towards the front it seems.....ah, I should quit drinking.....

    Very nice. Flies very well and looks stunning. And whats a couple of exploding ailerons between friends?

    Tip top, old boy, tip top.

    Thanks @TheRussiansAreComing it’s got slightly more speed than I planned from the result of a buried jet - so maybe a little unfair in a shooting match so to speak!

    Thanks muchly! @ChiChiWerx although there is trouble with the ailerons exploding with heavy banking at speed due to the two tone camo effect on wings.....

    But is it a match for the Super Corsair? It's Sidney Camm, of course it bloody is.
