I swear there’s recently been a massive drought of propeller aircraft on this site. I’m here to fix that with my replica of the Tempest Mk V! This took a few attempts to create, but I’m very happy with the result. I think it handles pretty nicely, but it can be sluggish at slow speeds.

Instructions

1: Decouple the propeller from the craft and the launch clamps.
2: Turn on SAS for the main craft, but not the propeller
3: Switch to propeller (using [ ] keys)
4: Hold down ALT + E until the roll meter is completely to the right
5: Wait until the aircraft takes off
6: Fly like normal, but avoid dipping below 20m/s.

Top Speed: 75.5m/s
Top Speed (in a dive): 120m/s
Stall Speed: 25m/s
Takeoff Speed: 28-35m/s
Climb Rate: 10m/s
