Avro Lancaster MK.I (1:1)
Here is my recreation of the WW2 English Heavy Bomber known as the Avro Lancaster!
Keep in mind that while this is 1:1, some things are not perfect, such as the interior being slightly simpler than the original
– HOW TO FLY IT –
1. Startup
Hop in the pilot seat or flight engineer seat (This can be extended by pressing the button opposite to the desk rear of the pilot), look to your right at the flight engineer’s panel and flip:
All fuel pump switches
Cross-feed valves
Engine fuel valves
Then look to the main instrument panel and:
Set flap position to 1 (Takeoff)
Throttle up to 50% (Or similar)
Start NEAR engines first and then Far engines
2. Taxing
Release the parking brake in the bottom left corner of the front panel, and use UP/DOWN keys to change prop pitch to taxi onto the runway
3. Taking off
Line the Lancaster up with the runway and set prop pitch to 0%
Increase engine throttle to 100%
Increase prop pitch to 100% to take off
When the rear wheel has lifted off the ground, the plane should have enough airspeed to take off
Lower throttle to 85% to cruise
4. Bombing
Open the bomb bay doors using the switch on the floor to the left of the pilot
Go to the Bomb Aimer’s seat and sit in it
Wait until the white light turns on to indicate the bomb doors are fully extended, and release bombs when ready
Port and Starboard Racks: Incinerary bombs
Center Rack: Cookie Bombs
5. Landing
Set flaps to position 2 (Landing)
Throttle down to 50%
Land the plane and reduce prop pitch
When slower turn brakes on to stop
