History

alt text

The Convertiplano is a cancelled Brazilian convertiplane project. It is based on the earlier Focke-Achgelis Fa 269.

Henrich Focke revived the design in the early 1950s on behalf of Brazil's Centro Técnico Aeroespacial (CTA), at the time the air force's technical center, who had contracted him to develop a convertiplane. The Convertiplano was built using the fuselage and wings of a Supermarine Spitfire Mk.XIV, serial RM874, acquired by the Brazilian Air Attaché's office in Brazil...

Controls

I have no idea how to make a good VTOL plane so don't expect this one to be good at flying.

-For the engines to work, you need to turn them on through the 4 switches inside the cockpit.

For Vertical takeoff:

Trim = -10-15%
Throttle = 90%-100%

-Use Trim to control the direction of the engines.
-During landing, point the engines up and descend slowly decreasing your Throttle.

AG5 - Flaps (just visual)
AG8 - Gyroscope

    @Gabriel747 sobre o super Petrel, já tem alguns muito bem feitos aqui no site, então prefiro fazer algo mais desconhecido, tipo o convertiplano ;)

    @Gabriel747 a partir da visão de dentro do cockpit é difícil mesmo, recomendo colocar em terceira pessoa e colocar os motores retos em direção ao solo e depois só acelerar.
