de Havilland Canada DHC-1 Chipmunk Trainer

More uploads! Decided to put up my Chipmunk, despite the poor thing not quite having the stability I would've hoped for.. Nevertheless, it's here.

After WWII, de Havilland Canada was tasked with building a replacement aircraft for the aging Tiger Moth trainer. Designed in 1945 and first flown in 1946, the DHC-1 Chipmunk was their solution; a forgiving, all-metal monoplane, well suited for training, sport flying, and even aerobatics.

Not unlike the real Chipmunk, the rear seat only has a panel with instruments. All other controls (throttle, flaps, seat) are only active with the front seat's "permission" using a shared control toggle that allows input from both seats.

The throttle is also shared and works on a "takeover" basis. When moved, it will continue from where it was last set.


CAUTION - Runway is required for this plane to get enough speed for takeoff! Flaps are recommended for more confined spaces.

Due to the high drag forces in Stormworks, the throttle is sort of useless. The plane's entire flight envelope is just about within the upper 10% of throttle, so keep that in mind while landing. I'd recommend flying it all the way down to the runway threshold before bringing the throttle below 90%.

Trim is your friend! If I had a better autotrim, I would've used it. Prop torque is a pain.
(hold left ALT to use the trim menu)

Startup:
- MAGNETOS (upper left, main panel) - ON
- Check PARKING BRAKE (telltale bottom center) - ON
- Set THROTTLE - BETWEEN 0 and 0.1
- ENGINE STARTER - HOLD until RPM reaches ABOVE 200

- Situational Items - LIGHTS, CABIN HEAT, FLAPS

HOTAS throttle support as always! Works in both the front and rear seats.

Refuel hoses are on top of the wings above the gear.



Thanks for checking it out! Enjoy
