This is a craft by @epim300. I just made it Drool. :)
While flying it I realized it would be the perfect plane for an idea that has been in my head for a while.
There’s a very basic Vizzy program that runs without any input that will automatically take off (it uses the entire runway), climb up to 1000m before leveling off. Then the dropping begins. Then it fires three missiles… backwards, just because. The height, dropping interval, etc. can be changed in the code.
There are a couple of cameras in the cargo bay to view the dropping from a different angle.
I also tweaked the landing gear a bit. I set the retraction speed slightly different on all three. I find it a bit more realistic… in my opinion, that is.
This the first plane I’ve modded that’s turned out decent enough for me to post. I hope y’all enjoy it.
AG5: Fires the missiles rearwards
AG6: Dump all the Droolings at once
Very cool craft @epic300

Thank you! I worked on it WAY too long (I am kinda a perfectionist) but learned quite a bit in the process with both the craft with Vizzy. Almost all of my work was pure trial and error. This plane is v5. And I went through v1.x.x and so on in that matter until this final version. Great learning experience for me. :) -
stick some chutes on the seats ;)
