It could perhaps benefit from moving the leading edge of the main wing forward to increase forward and overall lift.
Also, something to make the Trim control show up without needing a keyboard.
Conversion for naval use seems unlikely.
Painfully loud. Looks good, though hard to lift off and tends to veer on the runway. Nose-heavy.
Could have potential regardless.
Perhaps worth looking into conversion for seaborne operation?
@Guywhobuildsstuff I'll give it a look later.
Working on something at the moment.
Also, I believe it was determined that old usernames don't work in tags. If you want Grain to see this then you'll have to tag the Graingy account by its current name.
@orangeconnor
Do you have any dual boom planes?
@orangeconnor2 you think you can start producing some of these?
