Kriger Cruiser K25 Flying Boat

Popis
Introduction

The Flying Boats are back! What was once a war time essential aircraft is now a very valuable asset in the world of Stormworks. Kriger's very own K25 known as the Cruiser is a quad engine sea plane able to carry people and cargo over great distances at great speed. She is not a novice's aircraft but her very modern cockpit makes her relatively easy to fly.

Included is a video showing a creative mode land-based takeoff as well as visit around the aircraft, water landing and water takeoff. This aircraft has no tilting engines yet it is still able to perform a water takeoff.

Information

  • Wingspan: 31m
  • Length: 26m
  • 4 Water-Cooled Medium Engines
  • 11000L of fuel
  • Cruising speed of 135knots
  • Range of 128km at cruising speed
  • Max speed of 165knots
  • Crew: 3 (Pilot, Co-Pilot, Flight Engineer)
  • Passengers: 11 sitting
  • A lot of cargo space
  • Galley
  • Lavatory
  • 4 position flaps
  • Water takeoff mode (consists of rudders and electrical motors powering propellers pushing the plane up)
  • VHF Radio
  • Differential thrust mode for turning the plane in the water
  • Fire bottles on all 4 engines

Takeoff

  • Top hatch with glass dome: 4 fuel valves
  • Avionics, Control Surfaces, Magnetos
  • Throttle at 12%
  • Top hatch with glass dome: EG1,2,3,4 Starters
  • Flaps down
  • Throttle at 20%
  • Propeller Pitch to Max
  • Nav Lights
  • Throttle at 100%, pitch up
  • Raise flaps
  • Climb to desired altitude
  • Ease back on the throttle until speed of 135knots
  • Gyro and / or alt hold
  • Optionnal: Cowl flaps when taking off and landing

Water takeoff
Note: along with the screenshots I've included a video of me showing off the aircraft and doing a water takeoff. If you're having trouble taking off from the water, watch the video.

  • Top hatch with glass dome: 4 fuel valves
  • Avionics, Control Surfaces, Magnetos
  • Throttle at 12%
  • Top hatch with glass dome: EG1,2,3,4 Starters
  • Throttle at 20%
  • Nav Lights
  • Set desired altitude to 400m
  • Enable Alt Hold
  • Water Takeoff Mode (keyboard shortcut: 1)
  • Throttle at 100%, pitch up
  • Propeller pitch to max to gain speed then back down and to max again until lift up
  • Disable Water Takeoff Mode
  • Climb to desired altitude
  • Ease back on the throttle until speed of 135knots
  • Gyro
  • Optionnal: Cowl flaps when taking off and landing

Using Differential Thrust

  • With engines running, on the water and Prop pitch at zero, use Emergency EG Shutoff for EG2 and 3 (inboards)
  • Enable Differential Thrust Mode, Throttle up and use rudders to move around

Future

I'll be updating the Cruiser with "beaching gear" in order to properly do a land takeoff then ditch the takeoff gear sort of like the real flying boats (even though they don't use it for takeoff)
