WW1 Biplane (Challenge entry)

Auto Credit Based on cruiseman101's Biplane challenge! (Closed)

This is not a replica, but is similar to something that that would be used in World War I.
Funny story: This is actually the second version, the first version I accidentally deleted. I had to rebuild the whole thing all over again. In fact the version you saw in “Aviation Evolution” was the old version. They're both very similar.


Controls:

  • Activate1= stabilize and activate rear turret
    Note: Use pitch and roll to control turret.

  • Pitch, Roll, Yaw, Throttle= normal flight controls

Notes:

  • It has typical biplane characteristics. Such as, low top speed, low stalling speed, quite maneuverable, etc…

  • Flying in cockpit view isn't quite as boring as usual with the cross hairs and custom yoke.



Enjoy!

    @JCCNtechnologies Simpleplanes magic :) If you put the machine guns close enough to the propeller, the bullets just go right through it.
