Omikron Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) Hello everyone, here is my recent creation of Crimson Skies Brigand. (For those who doesn't know what "crimson skies" is - it is a great flying simulator for PC and first generation of xbox console) Here are some teasing photos (I'll upload more after proper resizing) Hosting problems... Captains control set Opened cockpit Closed Rear turret Elevator and rudders Black aileron Guns, joysticks and pedals Turret aiming at higher target Turret aiming at lower target Turret aiming at left target Turret aiming at right target Docking hook is hidden Docking hook opened Propeller pitch 1 Propeller pitch 2 Beautiful engine Propeller blade Blades must be like this, but I had no money to buy a set of parts =( Ask questions, I'd be glad to answer!

Junpei Posted October 20, 2013 Awesome! How many cylinders does that engine have? Is it an X engine? I can't wait for more! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Omikron Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) Awesome! How many cylinders does that engine have? Is it an X engine? I can't wait for more! Thanks! It's a V18 I was trying to recreate Pratt&Whitney R800 radial engine, but I didn't have some parts, so I decided to make a "sport" version. The X engine didn't fit with all the mechanical parts. There will be a video tomorrow or a day after tomorrow of all mechanics and functions. More photos uploading... Edited October 20, 2013 by Omikron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kronos Posted October 26, 2013 OK. I'm not looking any more. What part is the nose cone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Omikron Posted October 27, 2013 (edited) OK. I'm not looking any more. What part is the nose cone? http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=57587 Available in multiple colors The nose cone was one of the main concerns alongside with blades. But I found a descent part to play the role. If you want to get one - keep in mind it bends pretty easy. It's not rock solid.

Phoxtane Posted October 27, 2013 This plane was the best plane once you had enough tokens to upgrade it to 6 guns on the wings. Looks nice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
