Twin Racer

2,284 Mickk  5.7 years ago

A fairly simple Twin Engine 'Sport' Racer.
A little larger than a normal racing aircraft, but what is 'normal' these days.
Could possibly perform some sort of role as a combat aircraft.

Will take off all by itself at about 40% throttle.
At full throttle will take off and fly upwards until it reaches close to maximum speed and will then start a slow descent.
Propellers are just about as large as you can go without them hitting the ground when the tail lifts.

Engines are XML for size only, as is the cockpit, everything else is stock.
Controls as per normal.
As usual for most of my aircraft, no bad habits that I can find, not that I tested this one very much.
