CAA-18 Goose UAV

CAA-18 Goose The CAA-18 Goose is a small, hand-launched electric reconnaissance UAV for BeamNG. It is a two-axis fixed-wing aircraft: an all-moving stabilator handles pitch, while the rudder provides yaw and roll. There are no ailerons or landing gear. To launch it in Beamng either drop it from some height or use the boost action. Trimmed by default to fly at 52km/h. The flight model follows published RQ-11 performance targets. Default keyboard controls: - T / G — elevator - F / H — rudder / roll - B / N — throttle up / down - Y / U — trim up / down The CAA-18 Goose is unofficial and fan-made. It is adapted from the AeroVironment RQ-11 Raven, but is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by AeroVironment, Inc. “CAA-18 Goose” is this mod’s own name.
