Peacefully glide around
Link to the video I made on this
This is a very efficient glider. Just fly up to any altitude you want and detach the propeller and glad safely to the ground. It has a stalling speed of around 45 mph.
Controls:
Activate1= detach propeller & start glidingBrakes= tire brakes, & air brakesPitch,Roll,Yaw,Throttle= normal flight controls
Notes:
Trimmay need you be adjusted when when you are using the propeller.
Enjoy!

@Eiro yep, that's one option.
Yeah You can use xml to scale the propeller diameter @Belloaka
@Eiro Yeah, that is something I need to work on.
However the propeller goes into the fuselage
@Eiro Thanks, I'm glad you like it.
