S.M.O.L 19 (!under 500Kg!)
This is my first plane I'm uploading here. My goal was to build an airplane that is powered by a propeller, has a cockpit, and is as small and light as possible. The take-off weight is only 482 kg with 9 liters of fuel, to make it even lighter the nose wheel can be removed to achieve a take-off weight of 422 kg, which makes the starting process considerably more difficult but still possible. Speeds up to 700Km/h are not a problem. Departure procedure: 1. Slide the left VTOL control to the second position from the top (propeller should point about 45° up) 2. give 15% throttle 3. press and hold the "S" key 4. Departure 5. To land, simply reduce the throttle, and slide the VTOL control all the way up and glide to the ground I hope you like it :)
