Echo '47 - Salamander

This is my Echo '47 fictional version of the Heinkel He 162 "Salamander", with a far more powerful engine than it should have (TWR ~1, transsonic), plus additional firepower.

Pure stock, no mods, no DLCs. 54 parts, root part is the cockpit.

I recommend using MouseAimFlight[forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com] to fly planes, and more importantly, to land them.

V1.1 with very slightly modified wing shape (see the last picture) available here on KerbalX[kerbalx.com]. Oddly I can't update this file on the Workshop.

[7]= toggle reaction wheel (default off, don't think it will do much though)
[0]= toggle engine
[Abort]= toggle flaps
[RCS]= toggle reverse thrust

- There's a video above showcasing its flight performance.
- Takeoff and landing speed: 60 m/s.
- With low drag, high thrust and high wing load, it flies more like a high speed interceptor than a dogfighter - it accelerates quickly, but also loses speed rapidly during high-G turns. I believe the IRL He 162 has somewhat similar performance, however the real one has weaker engine and can never hit sound barrier.
- The nose-down tendency from its top-mounted engine is countered by slightly angled horizontal stabilizers.
- Its maneuverability increases after dropping the external tanks (which are not only heavy, but also shift CoM forward).
- The real He 162's CoM is pretty up front and has limited combat maneuverability (safe overload = 4G for early versions, 6.5G for later versions. (Source: He 162 Bedienungsanleitung[www.bredow-web.de]) But I don't care about that and used a ballast tank to shift its CoM towards the rear, giving it enough maneuverability to knock out the pilot. Fun fun fun.
- By default, it carries 50% internal fuel for better flight performance. Increase that if you want to fly longer distances. CoM will stay constant.

Overall, it handles nicely and I enjoyed flying it. Wish you enjoy as well!
