Junkers Ju52 Cargo
!SCROLL DOWN FOR INSTRUCTIONS! (Flight mechanism based on Bluester16's bush plane) The Junkers Ju52/3m, affectionally known as "Tante Ju" (Aunt Ju) or "Iron Annie" is one of the most iconic aircraft of all time. Manufactured since the early 1930s all the way to the 1950s, it is one of the most widely used aircraft of its time, having served in the airlines and air forces of dozens of countries with multiple flying examples still around. This one is a cargo / empty & unarmed military variant. ----------------INSTRUCTIONS---------------- 1. Big red button starts/stops engines 2. C+W/C+S controls throttle 3. C+A/C+D controls rudder independently (for taxiing and takeoff) 4. WASD controls aircraft in flight (pitch / roll+yaw) 5. Pitch trim is controlled by the wheel on the right side of the pilot seat 6. Flaps are controlled by the same wheel (simultaneously with trim) when the flaps switch between the wheel and the seat is in UP position (yes, this is how it works on the real thing). 7. Space to brake and space+A/D to brake only the wheel you're turning towards. Parking brake is applied automatically when engines are turned off. Additional notes: - Both the pilot (left seat) and the co-pilot (right seat) have full control of the aircraft at all times, though only the pilot has easy access to the flaps switch. - Doors are toggled by clicking the doorway, not the door. This is because it'd be very difficult to reach the doors themselves from the inside at their intended opened angles. - Light switches are behind the co-pilot's head - Insrument lights switch is near the floor on the back of the center console, below the throttle levers. - Just like on the real Ju52, the trim wheel does not allow adjusting trim nor flaps past their maximum or minimum positions (Flaps account for 90 degrees of rotation on the wheel and trim for 180). This means that you need to set trim to at least neutral (gray mark on top) for you to be able to fully lower the flaps. Likewise you'll have to ensure the flaps switch is in DOWN position for you to have full 180 degree range of control for trim. - Trim and flaps are automatically reset for takeoff when engine turns on.
