Lancaster Bomber

Description
A Lancaster bomber I made a few years ago, however since the survival update some physics were changed and mods were updated and it ceased to work, however I have now fixed it and it works for now. This plane is entirely propeller driven which is why it took me so long to find a way to make it work without using thrusters.
hopefully you enjoy this creation!
It has 3 independently functioning turrets which can be accessed by their own seats and moved by pressing 1 and moved with mouse and fired with the button 2. Be careful with the top turret as it has the ability to shoot the aircraft if pointed in the wrong direction

Controls:
1.engines
2.roll left
3.pitch up
4.roll right
5.pitch down
6.landing gear
7.side door
8.bomb bay doors
9.release bombs

In order to take off, it works best by holding 2 and 4 simultaneously until it is off the ground.
Works best on flat terrain as otherwise it is likely to hit something

Features:
ENTIRELY PROPELLOR DRIVEN.
3 gun turrets (front, top and rear).
Working bomb bay and bombs.
54 BOMBS timed to drop over approximately 14 seconds.
Seating positions influenced by real aircraft.
Very large.

Flies good (except the yaw isn't very stable) Looks great, Works well, great bombload :steamthumbsup:

I now have an updated version with more detail but I didn't want to replace the original as it has stayed pretty much the same for 3 or 4 years. Here's the link for anyone interested:

I have made some changes and in my testing it now works reliably. Changes include: altered blade pitch from 45 to 30 degrees, Tyres attached to propellers have been removed and replaced with a single block and pistons for reduced friction and collisions, and I have added a second controlled bearing to the outermost flaps to make them more reliable.
If any more issues occur let me know

Must be broken again, I'll have to have a look and see why, I've had to change which engine I use and how the propellers are fitted as they keep changing the physics that means that it stops getting the speed required. Due to the layout of the wheels you have to take off by holding 2 and 4 rather than 3 but I will look into it.
