SF2 KC-135 A

Decided to remodel it a bit

Hi,

 

Good...

 

Coupi.

Veltro,

 

The black section just inside of the blue (inboard flaps) is actually two separate pieces. An upper (fixed in place) and a lower (fillet flap). If you give the spoilers (red) two separate animation IDs, you can get them to act as spoilers in flight (roll control) as well as speed brakes. The outboard ailerons (red) lock out above 200kts so roll control is done by the inboard ailerons (yellow) in combo with the spoilers.

 

She's looking good though. Depending on the year you are modelling, the tail mounted flood light was a later add-on and not in Vietnam. Give a look at the motor mounts. They they a tad too long and flat and the J57s too fat.

 

Would be awesome to see the crew entry chute modelled since it doesnt have a canopy.

 

Just some ideas.

Looking good Veltro

Any chance of modeling CFM-56 engines for an R version?
