F/A-18C Hornet

36.3k FrogmasterAereonautics  7.1 years ago

Hi guys! This is my newest Replica, a remake of my old F/A-18E. Please leave an upvote to let me know if you like it!

This scale 1:1 Replica comes fully functional, super detailed with a fully working Cockpit, custom landing gears and improved flight dynamics.

Instructions:
AG1 + VTOL Down to use Flaps
AG2 + VTOL Down to use the Carrier Cable Hook
AG3 to Drop Fuel tanks
AG 4/5/6 to Fire all missiles
AG7 for instruments light
AG8 for all Lights

I really like the flight dynamics of this plane, and I tried to replicate them as well as possible. It shouldn't have problems during any kind of maneuvers.
Stall Speed is at around 80mph, and Max Speed at Sea Level is at around 720mph (fully loaded).
Flaps are only aesthetic, because of a problem with the Xml modded wings.
There's a camera hidden in the ECM Pod with a rudimental Sight, just in case you would have liked to add some bombs.. Have fun!
