Elephant Industries R6F

2,030 ZeElephant  8.8 years ago
Auto Credit Based on ZeElephant's Elephant Industries R6G

Developed in the 1920's as a hardcore air racer, this mad six-cylinder aircraft was fast, but couldn't beat the tremendous speeds of its main competitor, the Curtiss R3C.

This model is a floatplane. Check out the R6G for the land-based EE R6!

Be sure to apply some upward pitch when taking off, or the aircraft will flip over itself.
