Grumman TBF-1C Avenger torpedo bomber

Description
READ ME

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLY THE AIRCRAFT IF IT WAS THE FIRST TIME SPAWNED IN YOUR GAME, RETURN TO WORKBENCH AND RESPAWN IT AGAIN SO THE WINGS CAN UNFOLD/FOLD PROPERLY BECAUSE OF THE PHYSIC ERROR


The Avenger was the heaviest single-engined aircraft of World War II, and only the USAAF's P-47 Thunderbolt came close to equalling it in maximum loaded weight among all single-engined fighters, being only some 400 lb (181 kg) lighter than the TBF, by the end of World War II. To ease carrier storage concerns, simultaneously with the F4F-4 model of its Wildcat carrier fighter, Grumman designed the Avenger to also use the new Sto-Wing patented "compound angle" wing-folding mechanism, intended to maximize storage space on an aircraft carrier; the Wildcat's replacement the F6F Hellcat also employed this mechanism. The engine used was the powerful, twin-row Wright R-2600-20 Twin Cyclone fourteen-cylinder radial engine, which produced 1,900 hp/1,417 kW.

So yeah... I finally finished the bomber, it took me forever but it was worth it. During the making of this project, I encountered a lot of technical difficulties such as the engine power and the wings glitch issue but still, i fixed most of those problems. If you like this creation please rate up! Also since the wings are foldable it makes the plane a bit sucks flying...you know Stormworks physics:/. Try not to roll too hard when turning, otherwise the plane will begin to stall, keep her level all the time. If you find any bug issue please let me know :D

That's just a trait of single prop planes even in real life. It can't really be fixed unless he adds a trim selector

Switch off heater to avoid overheat
