That's awesome! I wish I was able to get Baha's camera to work like yours. All mine does is sit in one spot while the plane flies away.

maybe you have not enabled auto zoom, if not, you have the zoom bar, or keyboard controler!

One suggestion that would help with the look a bit.

Move the wingtip pylons a bit more forward on the wings. The wing mounts are set so the missiles more than 50% ahead of the wingtips.

And the twin nose guns, you can drop one and place it in the nose top balance this with the ammo going under it tucked inside of the craft.

Great looking craft though, one of the best F/A-18s out there.

There's one problem though, the intakes are wrong. Those intakes you put were for the Boeing F-18 Super Hornet(rectangular intakes) while the Mcdonnell Douglas F-18 Hornet has circular intakes. The Super Hornet is a little different from the Hornet.

thank you for the info.

, to be honest, I really do not know much about aviation.

I did this by looking at pictures on google and wikipedia !!

I'll try to fix it.

and I have a little problem with the control surfaces, here's the current configuration:

I do not know if this corresponds.

if someone can help me!

To help you out a bit the way they are set up is like this.

The leading edge are slats, they should only be setup as flaps in FAR.

They shouldn't affect pitch or roll they are only there for landing and take off, and for low speed flight.

You will also want to reduce the angle which they extend down to, they are pretty shallow on the extensions on those.

But to find out just look up F/A-18 wing slats.

thanks for help, I appreciate

No problem, I love planes and I am always willing to help when I can with them.

The leading edge slats should respond to AoA, so they would postpone stalling
