How do I build a seaplane properly?

37.6k LukaIsDevinFather  2.5 years ago

So, I'm creating a flying boat (or a seaplane in general), was able to float it with floating blocks and bouyant fuselaged but I can't let it out from the water (it tend to stop at 116 km/h). What should I do to the craft to take her off from the water?

Also, I can't make the craft a landplane instead.

Any help will do.

Note that the plane I'm building is a flying boat with four engines.

    What is the take off speed on a runway ? if it is higher than 116 km/h, reduce the drag (with xml editor) on the floating blocks and fuselages which are in contact with water.

    Assuming that this aircraft has wings, you could add flaps on the main wings for extra lift.
