Replica German Build

234k RamboJutter  4.9 years ago

@ssenmodnar Suggested that i recreate an actual real life weird aircraft for a change in around 600 parts (not my usual to say the least), for some reason I thought that a good idea...

So here we have the Dornier DO-29 STOL aircraft. This aircraft is fun to play around in, use VTOL down for the variable thrust, takoff use around half down on the VTOL, landing can be on full down. VTOL controls the flaps, engine vectoring, and engine casing doors.

I will add that there isnt much info / many drawings availiable for this aircraft, I have used some blueprints which appear to not include some evolution of the aircraft through manufacture, I also used aircraft photographs to thus identify variations and add them to the build hopefully in a suitable size/position.

    Very nice, I added a small cannon to the bottom and tilted it 15 degrees down. It makes a very fun strafing aircraft.
