North American Rockwell OV-10 Bronco v1.1.0
The OV-10 Bronco is a twin engine, twin tail boom multi purpose airplane developed in 1968. It was developed for reconnaissance, forward air control and light transport missions. It is a single pilot airplane but has a second seat for an observer or instructor behind the pilot. The plane has a cargo-bay that can be used to drop paratroopers. The Bronco was liked because of its ability to fly low and slow.
Dimensions:
Wingspan – 40.0ft (12.2m)
Length – 39.7ft (12.1m)

Engine
The bronco is equipped with two turboprops producing around 715 hp each. They share one fire extinguishing bottle.
Propellers
Each engine drives a tree blade, constant speed, counter-rotating propeller. Pitch and reverse thrust can be adjusted using the power levers.
Performance
The Bronco is known to be a little underpowered, especially in warm weather and with high takeoff weights.
Known issues
Power/Condition Lever logic. High on my to do list.
White registration decals. Removed decal for now.
Sound (all aspects).
No ice visible in icing conditions. Manual advises strongly not to fly in icing conditions.
No side view propeller blades.
No tacan yet.
Not all frequency dails work (of non supported frequencies like HF) I will make them rotatable.
Ugly shoulder harnas textures (among others).
Non functional cargo bay. nqf
Fast taxi speed (is realistic but the normal mitigating action is not working). nqf
No spinning spinner
Not able to crash? I have looked into this but can not find the solution for now.
