56RAF_Roblex Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 At a guess, I suppose it is possible that losing that much wing will lose you about 1/2 of your lift on the left BUT.... with flaps down and providing an extra 50% of lift to the inner wings then that lost wingtip is only losing about 2/5. More likely though it is a bug in the flight model ? 1
Sketch Posted November 3, 2019 Author Posted November 3, 2019 Bug? No no no... This is the clipped wing variant of the Tempest. ? I made it all the way home like this... Took about 20 minutes. 1
69th_Mobile_BBQ Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 If you're careful about how you break the left wing off a similar spot, I can tell you the Yak-1.69 can do the same without flaps. I'm not sure if it applies to all models available in BoX though. I know that certain planes actually flew home IRL with similar damage and IIRC, the designers of the Tempest actually knew the plane could do it before it went into mass production. I'll try to find the docs or source for that.
