Auto Credit Based on Baldovino's 1250 lbs challenge (CLOSED)
This is a lightweight plane with a decent amount of power. It's good fun to throw around and try different stunts with. Not very easy to land, but it can be done.

@Baldovino Thanks! I found that using a tiny fuselage block and the basic landing gear was less weight than the wing landing gear, and I didn't have to adjust the dihedral of the wing too much. I had to have them forward of the propeller as well, otherwise the plane fell over when trying to take off.
Smart idea for gear position. I feel this contest very interesting.
