WIP Beta released Supermarine Spitfire Mk IX-e 1.65

Thank you for the honest feedback! I can definately try to move the cog forward abit, and i will try to get more stable yaw and increase drag on the fuselage! It also should eventually be more easy to take off as i am redoing the landing gear, and now that you mention it, i dont even know if i have torque reaction nodes set up, thanks for the reminder!

 

Hold my gas can, imma flight this masterpiece

I really waited for such mod to be made, I like plane mods

 

I think I might be able to make a few more liveries and maybe even the cockpit. But I’ll see if I have time

 

ok I downloaded it again, and I was doing aerobatics on the Italy map. when I pulled up to avoid hitting the ground, the fuel tank broke!

 

Yeah, sorry about that I’ve been doing some tuning since the last file update, so the thread version has some issues, prop can break the fuel tank and itself if you dive to steeply, don’t worry once I finish the new landing gear I’ve already helped the prop a lot, you can still break it if you dive REALLY steep, but most times you won’t have the altitude.

 

Doesn't work for me, can't take off without veering directly into a wall, pulls left super hard.

 

Yeah, same thing here. The only way I was able to take it off is when I manually placed it in the air, after that it worked nicely.

 

Yeah, it has a lot of torque at the moment, and the gear isn’t the best, using lots of rudder you can take off from the ground, but it can be challenging

 

i

im up to the chalenge I took off the me262 from the drag strip not to hard of a thing to do

 

Can I suggest a livery?

 

I suppose so, I don't do much in the way of liveries, and the model isnt one i made, so creating a livery would take alot more work, but go ahead and suggest!

 

I was thinking that someone could recreate the livery I saw at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago (aka bri'ish spitfire)

Also yes I did get to go inside of the 727 behind it

 

Next up you should make a P-38 lightning

 

Why top speed is 205 mph, not as a real Spitfire?

And this mod has no instrument panel in the cockpit.

And it's not handling like in flight simulators: the plane is trying to take of at 1300–1500 rpm, but a speed is to low for lower the nose of the aircraft to align — as a result, the plane jumps instead of accelerating for takeoff.

 

Y

Yeah, I know about the to fast acceleration, and I do know that top speed is much higher in real life, but I don’t believe I could get it to that speed and still have it be stable in game, plus there isn’t really any need to be able to fly so fast. For the cockpit, I didn’t make the model this time, and it didn’t come with an interior but eventually I will model one and add it to the mod. Thanks for the feedback!

 

For example, An-12 and Me 262 have top speed as in IRL.

 

Your spitfire is cool asf! I did notice that even with quite soft landings, the landing gear feels a bit mushy and it can easily deform or break the wing. I can't download mods and its really nice to have another high quality plane mod to go alongside the b25 on the repository. I saw your Tu154 and it looks awesome!

 

I've once been able to push it a bit over 240

Tho it requires then making an Earth-sized manoeuver to get back to the target.
Yes i made a target i have to shoot down .

Aside that , this mod is cool , and i'm looking forward to this

And it's rather easy to take off once you know how to Do it ( angle to the right while pressing the lift button)

 

Another thing i noticed : it's the only mod with witch you Can put the fuel very low . B-25 Mitchell loses it's Gears, cessna doesen't let you do that

 

This mod is pretty cool, i've wanted a prop fighter plane for a while now, but similar to the B-27 and ME262 I feel like this needs orbdance. especially a torpedo that would be cool!
