Goth G.VI, german WWI bomber prototype. This replica Ist modeled after the 2nd built prototype which never flew before it was destroyed by entente forces in 1918.
Possibly the first assymetrical aircraft to ever be built.
Some dimensions, proportions and shapes had to be guessed, because I only had one single picture to model it after. Other things were inspired by other Gotha aircraft like the rear wheels.
I couldn't figure out a bomb position since the original never flew with bombs. That's why I didn't add any to this replica, but feel free to add them if you download it, there should be plenty of space for a couple of them!
Therefore I'm very sorry if it may not be perfect. Correct me in the comment section and I'll update it to be closer to the original!
It flies just nice, even though it may not 100% fly perfectly straight, but I tell you that you will hardly notice after take off.
And it even has moving (along with the rudder) and shooting gunners, inspired by my Handley Page Type O build.
Built after a suggestion from @MalayanNationalist
Have fun flying it!

@MalayanNationalist were thinking of a different aircraft here😂 you think of a G.IV, I'm thinking of a G.VI. But don't worry, the G.IV is coming soon for you, and this time it's going to be the right one!
@derjohannes it suposed to have two engines one each sides and I think theres no engine on the middle
@MalayanNationalist ooh you meant the Gotha G.V or G. IV. The G.VI which you first commented was this assymetrical two engines experimental aircraft
@derjohannes why theres only 2 instead of three engine lol
@MalayanNationalist Which one? It has two in the original,
wheres the other engine?
