FRAME 3 (With Tow)

270 Tankbuster  1.2 years ago

Glider plane that can fly even at speeds as slow as 50mph. I did not originally make this with the intention of creating a glider, so that is why the shape is weird. The whole design is a happy accident that I decided on after realizing the weight was quite low. It’ll stay airborne for many minutes if flown right. Use group 1 to detach from the tow plane. 8 will deactivate the gyro.
