This is my first attempt at a decent airplane recreation. It's a bit too big and heavy and it doesnt fly perfectly but I think it flies well enough for a fictional aircraft. I tried my hardest to get this one as good as I can. Hope you enjoy it!

No fking way i found my childhood anime plane.
This plane look absolutely beautiful! However, it flies like a dried out turd. I hope you can make some adjustments and maintain the look. It's about as fun as a screen door on a submarine.
@FullFruntall The referance though!
Love the plane And the film!
This is the only plane of its kind. They said it
was too dangerous to fly. It was gathering dust in a warehouse.
...
Only take offs and landings give me some difficulty. Once it gets up
speed the wings have enough lift. [pointing to the drawing] Give me
0.5 degrees more incidence.
(Quote from Porco Rosso himself)
Hey guys, I have a question. How can I make this plane not want to always nose dive?
I have tried everything. Is it because the center of thrust is so high?
I mean the plane kinda handles like described in the movie but it's still kind of annoying that it wont stay straight.
Yes, Im a huge fan of Miyazaki and the planes that are in his movies.
Nice recreation. I love the movie. The director's father used to design airplanes during the war, hence the heavy use of aircraft in his movies.
@RY4NDY YESSSS
When i saw this i directly thought about the second plane in Wii sports resort, where you need to fly throught all the i points. You get that after 60 i points.
@AceSquadIndustries ty

Holy cow this is epic
@DeezDucks yea, earlier this morning i only needed 1,000 exactly to be gold.
@goboygo1 ty! Your almost gold!
@DeezDucks congrats on platinum!!
I called it! Congrats so many new players getting featured with their first upload!
This should be featured and @Marcy125 the pilot in the anime is a pig so it makes sense
Porco rosso in italian means red pig...
@ACMECo1940 Thanks! I'm gonna release my celebratory plane hopefully tomorrow after I take my Piano Exams if I can get @Mod to mod for me! The engines aren't powerful enough hand the gear doesn't go in all the way with normal in game rotator values.
Hey man by the way thumbs up on platinum!@DeezDucks
@OtakuSquirrel Actually it's the best on the site :)
Thank you! glad you like it. I was worried it was kinda bad haha
