Racing Plane Mark II

558 Fliegerkerlchen  4.0 years ago

Updated version of my Racing Plane. It got an slightly more powerful engine, new wingtips (actually, three different wingtips), wheel fairings, a new tail wheel and shortened ailerons. But with greater power comes greater speed and with that a larger turning radius, so you have to be smart with the throttle to complete the Indy Air Race. Also I fixed the brakes so you don't need a drogue shute anymore.
