Eagle Glider 2016 RC Version

27.4k JovianPat  8.8 years ago

An update to one of my favourite planes, the Eagle Glider!

I've updated the design, now it matches the RC plane that I used to fly. It also has more fuel, better stability, and improved handling. Suitable for beginners who are still learning how to fly. High landing gear placement and air brakes for easier landing.

The first thing you notice is obviously the Dual Analog Stick that I've included here. Basically the Analog Sticks sync together with the plane. Use camera 1 to view the Analog. Use Roll and Pitch for right analog, throttle and yaw for the left. Try flying this like a real life RC plane!
