Description

A stock turboprop powered aircraft called Dornier Do335.

The Dornier Do 335 Pfeil (Arrow) was a World War II heavy fighter built by the Dornier company. The Pfeil’s performance was much better than other twin-engine designs due to its unique push-pull layout and the much lower aerodynamic drag of the in-line alignment of the two engines. It was Germany’s fastest piston-engined aircraft of World War II. The Luftwaffe was desperate to get the design into operational use, but delays in engine deliveries meant that only a handful were delivered before the war ended.

The replicas top speed is about 75ms (270kmh) (updated) in level flight, 50ms extended cruise. It is powered by 4 Juno engines and a custom bearing I made, it is capable of aerobatics and landing without issue. I have raised the top speed 10ms but I think this about the limit for a 4 Juno prop.

Be very careful when pulling up from the runway. Rotate slighlty at just above 40ms, wait till it gets off the ground before climbing faster. AG 1 for Flaps.

Built with 109 of the finest parts, its root part is Mark2Cockpit.

Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.4.2.
