@hopotumon CoL and CoG are close for maneuverability considerations and weight's already been added. Accelerate to 500-600 before really yanking on the stick and you won't depart controlled flight. AI handles it well enough, though.
Take off from Murphy/Yeager Airfield and fly on a heading of 345 degrees (the heading indicator is in the attitude indicator/artificial horizon) for about 50 miles. Watch out for the fortress defenses as you get close. Friendly airfield is on the north side of Snowstone.
@HSAeroWerkes1 it wasn't a straight and level drop, so they weren't gliding, it was a pitch up and lob, so they were thrown ballistically...go ahead and try it: Accelerate at low level, pull up to 20 - 45 degrees nose high and hit the pickle button while continuing the pull up, then watch that bomb fly, it'll go pretty far.
@cowelly yes true; I still vote for one of the earlier "small wing" Harriers, plus the FRS.1 has that unique canopy for better vis, so it would look different than most other Harriers out there.
Sea Harrier FRS.1 aka the "Shar", it's the only Harrier to actually have made air to air kills (Falklands War/Guerra Malvinas against A-4s, Daggers, Mirage, C-130, a few other types).
Flaks..? Do you mean flak cannons? As in, anti-aircraft guns? You just point a gun or cannon in the air... I've thought about making some sort of system in SP, I think all you would need to do it would be a cockpit piece, a couple of rotators and a wing gun or rotary cannon.
@Gestour it's OK, I'll work with this particular build a little more, think I can make it work. Plus, now that I know how to access the XML files, can experiment a little to see what's what. You're right, it's much easier to do XML editing yourself, rather than trying to get someone to do it for you.
I have to say, I can't believe I lived without this for so long. This really changes the game; from all the builders out there, thanks for writing this!
@Synthex4060 totally agree...I really notice some users who when they post state: "100% accurate!". The reality of the situation is that every single replica on this site has its share of compromises to make it more flyable or more detail accurate, nothing is 100% accurate, so, like you, I like a nice compromise and I definitely work to make my replicas fun to fly!
@90corvette well, it looks good. Simple, yet accurate. Are you on Windows 10? I tried to fin the path to Jundroo, but I got a message telling me I wasn't allowed to access the "My Applications" folder.
Very nice, and you only use Fine Tuner mod? I just finally downloaded it myself after struggling in iOS (iPhone 5) without it...it's like a while new game experience now. You might appreciate my next build, an A-4P Skyhawk, but it will probably take me another week to get around to finishing it. If you like it, you should modify this one into an FRS.1.
@FrogmasterAereonautics awesome build, you really nailed not only details, but the overall "feel", if you know what I mean. Anyway, the intakes on the F-4 are canted slightly inwards...only way I know this is that I was retro-fitting the new intakes to my F-4 build 😃. I'm sorry I can't download this one, I'll have to do so when I'm home at my PC, but this is really awesome!
Wow, very nice, too bad I can't spotlight you as you have many more points than I do!

@hopotumon ?
Cool, tag me when done.

Nice, but needs a description, as least: "start in the air as there's no landing gear!"
Very nice...did you model this after an R/C aircraft? It has a Pitts-style muffler...
Great, thanks!
@SHCow F-20 Tigershark
Can I get an extension of 2 days to finish up my build?

OK...noted...thank you, Sir!
Hey, congrats! Nice job.
Looks awesome!

@Gestour darn it...I went into the file, modded the spread to "0", now any gun in my A-4 file doesn't fire, but it smokes...wth is going on?!?!?!??!?!
@Gestour thanks so much, I found it and opened the file. I had to find my way to the C: prompt first, it worked!
@Dimkal I was just hoping that you had a really cool OV-10 somewhere, that was all, not questioning where you got the nose section ;)
Thought so, but I don't see an OV-10 on your profile...?
The forward fuse is an OV-10...
This is nuts!
@BogdanX hmm, that makes sense
@BogdanX why would the position of the LG hinges cause a roll?
Strangely fascinating...

@MechWARRIOR57 understand, no worries just when you can get to it, thanks!
@MechWARRIOR57 any luck with the gun request?
Very cool!
Nice replica of the Salamander and kind of like your Feather...😉. Plus, it's only 62 parts!
Like an He-162...
@MemeKingIndustriesAndMegaCorporation How would you land in it without getting shot down?
Are you on iOS or PC or Android?
@SHCow yes, should have more upvotes, if only for the skull and crossbones!
@90corvette well, it looks good. Simple, yet accurate. Are you on Windows 10? I tried to fin the path to Jundroo, but I got a message telling me I wasn't allowed to access the "My Applications" folder.
What did you actually XML mod?
Sorry I did not see this one before, upvoted, spotlighting and I'm now following! Won't miss anything again.
"If it ain't a Boeing, I ain't going!"
@TheOwlAce then I vill have to wif ze Fw-290, ze obvious choice as eet ist ze faster of ze two!
Still, I wait...😬
Doh! I went back to the Jundroo site and noticed it was released at the same time as the updated Vertigo...never mind

@JoddyFubuki788 more like a J-10 Firebird...
Definitely deserves an upvote!
Wow, you're busy today...and you like orange. This plane should have been featured the first time you posted it, perhaps it will be now😎
Wow, the profile is just perfect...I need to take notes on the windscreen for the A-4B/P I'm in the process of building...
